Sorry wrong button...just ignore the previous post. After doing a little bit of research, I found that it is made of methanol (which is highly toxic), Phenylalanine, and aspartic acid. It has been proven to increase appetite, cause nerve damage, learning difficulties, sexual dysfunction, seizures, may be linked to different kinds of cancer, and a bunch of other things. I'm not saying that this is the truth. I don't know what is, But why take the chance? You are better off to be safe. I got this info from http://www.321recipes.com/aspartame.html. Check it out for more info against aspartame.
