You don’t have to freak out about aspartame in your diet soda

Aspartame being a possible carcinogen doesn’t mean what you think.

It’s not a “risk” it’s a “hazard assement”.

It’s not a food safety agency it’s just the World Health Organization’s cancer research arm.

This certainly doesn’t stir up mistrust. joker-troll

    I don’t have these headaches unless it’s aspartame and I really had no real opinion on the whole thing until after years of repeated “why am I getting headaches” shortly after and I revaluate what I’ve had and it’s always triggered around aspartame. It isn’t psychosomatic. I don’t have a problem with regular migranes or headaches. When I do get headaches I can usually attribute them to dehydration, or stress, or some other obvious issue.

    I can have suculouse with no problem. Stevia no problem. Monk fruit no problem with the added bonus of having more lucid dreams. High fructose corn syrup but I feel a bit bloated after so I try to stay away from that - but no headaches. It’s always aspartame if I have more than 1 serving. So there’s something there.

    Why am I being gaslighted so damned hard on this forum?
