ARTIFICIAL SWEETENER ASPARTAME CAUSES CANCER IN RATS

 

Scientists are calling for an urgent reevaluation of the artificial

sweetener aspartame. The ingredient, commonly found in sugar-free

beverages and candies, has been shown to cause cancer in rats,

according to a new study

http://ehp.niehs.nih.gov/members/2005/8711/8711.pdf in the

peer-reviewed journal Environmental Health Perspectives. " Our study

has shown that aspartame is a multi-potential carcinogenic compound

whose carcinogenic effects are also evident at a daily dose of 20

milligrams per kilogram of body weight (mg/kg), notably less than the

current acceptable daily intake for humans, " the authors write.
