A 2021 study published in Environmental Health following up on another 2007 study investigating the potential cancer-inducing effects of aspartame. See here:

[EXCERPT]
Aspartame is one of the world’s most widely used artificial sweeteners and is an ingredient in more than 5000 food products globally. A particularly important use is in low-calorie beverages consumed by children and pregnant women.
The Ramazzini Institute (RI) reported in 2006 and 2007 that aspartame causes dose-related increases in malignant tumors in multiple organs in rats and mice. Increased cancer risk was seen even at low exposure levels approaching the Acceptable Daily Intake (ADI). Prenatal exposures caused increased malignancies in rodent offspring at lower doses than in adults.
The state-of-the-art reanalysis of the Ramazzini Institute data [22] confirms that aspartame is a chemical carcinogen in rodents. This reanalysis confirms that 92% of the lesions observed in experimental animals exposed to aspartame in the RI studies were indeed malignant.
This is all just another excuse for the elites to implement communism in our lives.
Aspartame was suddenly approved in 1981 when Donald Rumsfeld, former CEO of Searle and new member of President Ronald Reagan’s transition team, appointed a new FDA commissioner.
These are the same assclowns that said red meat, pickled vegetables and aloe Vera are cancerous. And we are not rats (remember sacharrin?)
.
Why anyone would willing use an artificial sweetener of any type is beyond me.
Many years ago I heard a single radio report that aspartame caused memory loss in children. Since then I have limited my intake. This stuff can’t be good for people.
