Aspartame is made primarily from three ingredients: aspartic acid,
phenylalanine and methanol. Methanol, an alcohol, breaks down in
the body to formaldehyde, a poison if there ever was one.
Apologists for aspartame say that it doesn't create enough
formaldehyde in the body to cause any damage, but I'm not so sure.
Exposing children to formaldehyde levels as low as .75 mg daily for
several months has been shown to cause gradual toxicity. Plus, diet
soda is frequently stored in hot warehouses, causing chemical
breakdowns that went undetected in the original safety studies that
looked at "ideal" conditions.:dizzy:
 
Thanks for posting this. This is something I have known about for quite some time. More people should know about this. I have not had any diet soda's for years! And I avoid anything with this product in it. It makes me very ill and get a migrane with just a sip of it.

Thanks again for the great info!
