Except aspartame has never been scientifically known to cause any disease in humans.

Is Diet Coke bad for you?

Aspartame is poison!

* Aspartame/Nutrasweet is not very sweet in itself, that may be why Equal puts Dextrose (sugar) and maltodextrin as the first ingredients, so that it tastes sweet.
* Aspartame/Nutrasweet is a brain drug that stimulates your brain so you think that the food you're eating tastes sweet. If you pay attention you'll notice that when using Aspartame/Nutrasweet, everything you eat at the same time also tastes sweet! This may be why Aspartame/Nutrasweet causes you to crave carbohydrates. Hence, you won't lose weight using it.
BTW, cyclamates got pulled off the market in the 70's in the US (but not Canada or the rest of the world) because the sugar industry saw too much of their market disappear.
* Aspartame/Nutrasweet (aspartylphenylalanine-methyl-ester) breaks down to its poison constituents at 86 degrees (Aspartic Acid 40%, Phenylalanine 50%, and Methanol 10%). Remember your stomach is at 98.6 degrees! Therefore you should never use Aspartame/Nutrasweet in hot beverages or cooked foods such as Jello. How the FDA allows this remains a mystery. There is mounting evidence that the "Burning Mouth Syndrome" experienced by the Desert Storm troops was actually Methanol poisoning from the Diet Coke they drank lots of, after being exposed to desert temperatures.
* Aspartame/Nutrasweet's 10% Methanol appears in the body quickly and is the same alcohol (wood alcohol also in lacquer thinner), that your mother correctly warned you could make you blind. Many skid-row alcoholics had major problems with this cheap but deadly form of alcohol.
* Aspartame/Nutrasweet's 40% Aspartic Acid is an "excitotoxin" in the brain and excites neurons to death, i.e. it kills brain cells and causes other nerve damage.
* Aspartame/Nutrasweet triggers Migraine Headaches This even happened to me!. The Usenet is filled with posts by people who have pinned their migraines down to aspartame/Nutrasweet consumption.
* Aspartame/Nutrasweet's breakdown products attack the bodies tissues and create Formaldehyde which builds up in the tissues forever. Remember the smelly, eye watering fumes from the frogs you dissected in school? They were preserved with Formaldehyde! Formaldehyde is thought to cause cancer.
The American Bottlers Association did not want the FDA to approve Aspartame/Nutrasweet because of what the test report showed. But the FDA approved it anyway!
* Airline pilots stay away from Aspartame/Nutrasweet because they are well aware of the documented dangers.
* Aspartame/Nutrasweet also breaks down to diketopiperazine [DKP] which is proven to cause Brain Tumors! Brain Tumors used to be rare. Several of the rats in the original study formed brain tumors during their Aspartame/Nutrasweet exposure. The researchers surgically removed the tumors and returned the rats to the study and discounted the tumors.

i stay away from all artificial sugars. i don't know about you guys, but i had no idea there were so many different types: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sugar_substitute (scroll to bottom.. "artificial sugar substitutes" section.)

i use an unsweetened unflavoured protein powder now... and just flavour it myself. the only sweetener i feel comfortable using is stevia.

You want to quote some sources in some MEDICAL JOURNAL and not some article from www.tinfoilhat.com


Let me guess... you think vaccination causes Autism and 9/11 is an inside job.

touché

but I will say I couldn't figure out why I kept getting such intense headaches. I stopped drinking diet pop and the headaches are gone. Again not any medical proof but just what happened to me.

coke zero = guaranteed headache (for me)

no one else I personally know even has this problem. I don't drink pop very much anyways I just thought would be a nice change from water while dieting since juice/regular pop has too much sugar.

my perception that because it you could grow your own stevia plant, and take the leaves right off it and use them, makes it seem more natural.
