- lurker123321 3y agoYes, the evidence of actual harm from aspartame consumption seems very limited.
- bshipp 3y agoI'm guessing the evidence of actual harm from aspartame consumption is also orders of magnitude lower than the damage from sugar-induced diabetes.
- tremon 3y agoProbably not, but not because of this article. There've been a number of studies that show that artificial sweeteners have a similar effect on building up insulin resistance as actual sugars. We'll have to wait another 20 years for the evidence to overwhelm the moneyed interest.
- dwaite 3y agoAspertame got US FDA approval in 1974, after being discovered in 1965. I'm not ready to anticipate a shocking revelation in another 20 years after heavy investigation for 50+.
