I was alerted to the effects of Aspartame through reading the message board under the better heart health site on the internet.
I was new to computers and anxiously read all I could access about tachycardia, arrhythmias and high cholesterol.
I found a posting that listed side effects from Aspartame. I had some of the same symptoms that she had experienced like; fast heartbeat. She kindly sent more information about Aspartame. I experimented by listening to my body when I consumed Aspartame and sure enough it was a cause of rapid heartbeat.
I cut it out completely. I used to consume quite a bit of the stuff in diet drinks and by adding it to coffee. I am also cutting out coffee, fat and am starting to exercise regularly.
I told the story to my brother, two aunts and two uncles who also have heart problems as well and they have also found a connection.
Thanks a lot; I’ll continue to share your information with anyone who I think might benefit from the news.
