Guest guest Posted September 12, 2006 Report Share Posted September 12, 2006 I am a little, well make that A LOT perturbed! Like I said in a previous posting, I am new to the world of Herbal and Natural medicines, well I was reading the label on my kids Vit C yesterday and I found out it has ASPARTAME in it?!?! What the crap do they need to put that in there for??? So then I was reading on their multivitamin bottle just now and the same stinking thing! Why on earth would they put that in there, doesn't that cancel out the fact that it has good stuff in it? And isnt aspartame a carcogenic agent??? Man what is a person to do?

Man what is a person to do? ********* If the " vitamins " you bought contain Aspartame, they probably contain alot of other artificial (chemical) stuff in them too. Not just the " additives " , but I'd bet that the vitamins indicated in them, are probably just synthetic versions, rather than food based nutrients also. If your kids need to supplement, you may want to check a local health food store and purchase 100% Whole Food Supplements, which are derived from foods, rather than the cheap synthetic stuff sold in most drugstores and/or supermarkets nowadays....(which IMHO are more harmful than helpful) Or else look into the group files for recipes to make your own " vitamin " formulas....
