Aspartame!! Sweet Poison! Watch what you eat!

My question is a simple one. Why is aspartame included in almost all of our chewing gums and candies! I remember a time when gum was not made with this junk however now
almost 9 out of every ten gums are made with Aspartame. Now let's go past the gum,
as I started to notice a trend in the gums I began to analyze candies, diet drinks, soft drinks etc. Looks like Aspartame has become the new sweetner of choice. Similar to
Equal, and Nutrasweet- this is another sugar substitute with the potential to cause severe adverse effects! How is this stuff even aloud to be placed in our food? Did you know Aspartame was once used as a RAT POISON!!??

The following link shows an article that goes into a bit more detail of how Aspartame is produced with Genetically Modified Bacteria!

According to the following article( http://www.sweetpoison.com/aspartame-sweeteners.html ), short term side effects are as follows:
Headache, mood changes, dizziness, manic episodes, panic attacks,seizures etc...

This should not be surprising. I have included another article for your edutainment.

In this day, we literally perish for lack of knowledge. What we don't know about the foods we eat can and does (CANCER) kill us!
