Aspartame - Not worth the risk
Aspartame is a popular artificial sweetener, both as a stand alone product and as a food and beverage ingredient.Several rat studies have shown aspartame to cause leukemia and tumors. However, industry sponsored studies and heavy pressure on the FDA have allowed aspartame to receive the coveted GRAS (generally recognized as safe) designation.Recent studies (Denmark, 2010) linked consumption of artificial sweeteners like aspartame to pre-term deliveries.
