Artificial sweeteners are not good for you. If you are presently taking them, suggest you Google aspartame side effects and you'll probably stop. So now aspartame has changed its name.   (There are natural sweeteners with no side effects.. Get some stevia at your health food store.)

Aspartame Name Change – February, 2010

 

For everyone who wants to keep up on how they slip aspartame into our foods, drugs, vaccines (yes, vaccines), OTC medications (especially child products), aspartame has a new name of AminoSweet.

 

 

Since aspartame has gotten such a bad name (as it should), Ajinomoto (the key manufacturer in Japan) has renamed this toxic chemical sweetener.

 

 

Start double-checking your labels on everything you consume.
