Guest guest Posted March 16, 2008 Report Share Posted March 16, 2008 Sorry to start this off as a new topic as I know it has been discussed in detail before, but I have just got to let you know my findings. I have been using Canderel for a while now and initially I found it fine, and I was totally confused about the major worry about it. I am now also on HRT, and since taking this, and using Canderel I noticed I was getting headaches on a regular basis. This was a worry as I assumed it was the HRT, and I was not looking forward to having to stop my treatment as even with the HRT my hot flushes are a nightmare. Having read all the postings about Aspartame, I thought that I would, just for the sake of curiousity, stop using it, and go back to a small teaspoon of sugar in my decaff. Guess what, I have had no headaches since stopping. They have stopped completely, so I just have to say, thank you to everyone who has posted regarding this subject. I'm not going to say that I will never have another headache, but its great knowing that I dont have to take copious amounts of aspiring any more!!

Guest guest Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 I have often had Aspartame in things - well not quite true - last year I tried to lose weight and was given a heap of OptiFast - by a friend - and it was not until I had taken it for a while that I saw that there was Aspartame in this product. I had no immediate side-effects whatsoever but I still stopped as I believe this type of poison is insidious and slow in impact affecting people long term with serious damage. I think you are very lucky to have had headaches as I see that many people have no immediate side-effects to warn them about the dangers. I have two main patients at present who for slimming and diabetic reasons have taken aspartame long term and refuse to admit the possibility of their neurological symptoms being due to this as a primary cause. Well done!! Best, Jane - " Suzie " <suzie_a Monday, March 17, 2008 2:01 AM Aspartame - The Truth!!!
