I am a nutritionist who has had physical problems due to consumption of Aspartame. In 1989 I made the connection between the consumption of Aspartame and gastro-intestinal symptoms, including pain, gas and bloating. This was discovered by a diary of food consumption and associated symptoms. I confirmed this assumption by way of multiple trials and abstentions.
Upon realizing the connection I contacted the manufacturer, the Searle Company. I was informed that the company would not take complaints. Since that time I have read articles which tell of the dangers of Aspartame. In counseling patients/clients I always warn them of the dangers of the use of this product.
Thank you for helping to spread the truth about Aspartame.
