Hi, I was a chronic user of diet sodas, gum, candy, and many other diet foods. I would drink about 2 or 3 diet cokes a day for about 25 years. I started this terrible habit when I was in college and started getting sick from it right away.
I went to doctors with various symptoms but with no help. After college I still continued to use this poison and into my 30’s I was developing lots of different symptoms. My first child was born when I was 33. I could barely get off the couch at this point and barely could make it through a day without being totally zapped of all my energy, cloudy thinking along with terrible migraine headaches.
I lived like this into my forties. I am now 46 and have been aspartame free for about 3 years I think. Before, I gave up diet stuff I had most symptoms that are listed on most web sites. I am now left with nodules on my thyroid that might turn into cancer one day and have gained about 30Lbs. I use to be thin but now have a terrible weight problem!!!! jeffriesd10@yahoo.com
