Several years ago, I read an article in Psychology Today about Aspartame, which said it was found in lab tests to increase seizures in epileptics.
I can correlate this with two experiences: an ex who started drinking diet sodas and started having seizures on a daily basis after seven years of control on Dilantin; my poor Sheltie, who is okay unless someone leaves a half-full glass of soda around and then the poor thing has a reaction.
Say I’m crazy, many have, but the final experience, memory loss, is something I can say has increased over many years of Aspartame use.
