http://www.dorway.com/indexnew.html I've done some research on aspartame. A friend of mine told me I should absolutely stop using it since I was diagnosed with TM and a brain tumor last year. Here's a couple web sites I thought you may be interested in to do some of your own research. I don't want to preach my views, but will not longer allow my kids to use it. We have switched to splenda.

I have read aspartame is thought to cause pain, ms like symptoms and all sorts of horrible things. The web is filled with horror stories pertaining to aspertame. But, then the funny thing also, aspartame has a form of phenylalanine in it and using aspartame raises the level of phenylalnine in the blood. Some people use phenylalanine to ease pain. I think any sugar is bad for people, but I do find when I drink something with aspartame in it I hurt less. I wonder if anyone will really ever know the answers about aspartame.

As a result of reading a letter to Peter Gott MD that was published in our local newspaper about "complex idiopathic neuropathy" and aspartame, I just finished an hour of research on the toxity of aspartame. Oddly, aspartame was the very first subject I researched on the internet years ago.
