Aspartame (E951) is an artificial sweetener, used in over 6000 products.

Some of the brand names for aspartame:
AminoSweet, NutraSweet, Equal, NatraTaste, Canderel, Spoonful, Equal-Measure, Splenda, Sweet N Low, etc.

Apartame components:

1.Methanol which breaks down into formaldehyde, which is a poison.

2.Phenylalanine leads to mood swings (depressions) and an increased appetite! That is why aspartame is one of the main causes for the current obesity epidemic.
