Aspartame in place of sugar is not a good alternative to simply counting calories and reducing sugar intake.

While some links to cancer have been made with saccharin, if you must use an artificial sweetener, it is best to use saccharin.

Aspartame - the sugar substitute you need to be wary about
Another Aspartame Story...
We received this note from K.H. concerning her use of aspartame.
"Here's the story about what happened after I quit using aspartame.

I heard of the dangers about 4-5 years ago. At the time, I was being treated at a pain management center for fibromyalgia, migraines, chronic pain from disc degeneration, and depression. I was taking Wellbutrin and an ever-changing mix of antiinflammatories, muscle relaxants, and pain medications on a daily basis. I was still in a considerable amount of pain.

I stopped aspartame cold-turkey. Within a few weeks, I was migraine-free with greatly reduced pain.  Within less than a year, I was off all daily medications and have remained so for over four years.

I tell everyone I can about getting off aspartame and will happily be sharing your website with others."

Thank you K.H. for sharing your story with us.
