I am a nutritionist working on my Master’s degree. I’m not taking a position to argue about whether or not the government should have approved NutraSweet and don’t intend to enter that debate. However, I know that NutraSweet gives me headaches. This theory was confirmed when I sent my husband out one night to get some ice cream. He prepared me a bowl of it without my seeing the container. Within a matter of 1/2 hour I was in bed with a headache and stayed there all night and the entire day following. When I finally got out of bed, I went to look for something to eat and noticed that the ice cream he had purchased had NutraSweet in it. We do not purchase items that contain NutraSweet for use in our household. My husband made a mistake. His mistake, however, helped to verify my theory that NutraSweet gives me a major headache. A lady I work with has the same problem. I don’t knock anyone for using it if they feel they can with success. I’ve always thought that NutraSweet is like a lot of other things we are exposed to every day. Someday we MAY find that what we thought was good for us really wasn’t at all. Time and new research will tell.
