My experience wit Aspartame

[Guest guest]

Helllo Everyone:

My husband was a diabetic and naturally I was always trying to

" substitue " ..It seems that everything we were eating prior t his dath

had aspartame product in it. Strange as it may seem, I let the side

effects " slip " my mind until ONCE AGAIN I began to fesl them. Whe read

the post hat mentioned that word,it was lke a light that came on in my

brain.

My symptoms are...dizziness..can't think clearly stay hungry all the

time..body aches for no reason....little sores on my tongue ad fever

blister-like on my lip inside and outside. Until I heard someone else

say that, it had never crossed my mind that could be where tye were

coming from.

Also, don't mean to sound like a commercial but " diet coke " nearly

ruined my bladder. A Urologist told me never to drink any drink loaded

with CAFFENE and COLORING which he said that diet coke was the worst.

Regular coke is the same except it doen't have aspartame in it. The

doctor said to READ YOUR LABELS, if it contains dark coloring, caffene

or any aspartame product DO NOT put it into your body.

Now, yo can understand why I askd for more information regarding

asparame. I'm not stirring a be hive " I hope, butI'm asking

anway... " Were any more CJD patients Diabetics who used asparame in their

diet?

Thanks friends and have a blessed day.

Hello, My name is Becky I am interested in the aspartame, I myself drink

diet coke. I love it I guess it's called addiction. I have been experiencing

itching on the eyelids they itch and then turn red almost of blistering. I

was woundering if anyone knows is this possible of the aspartame? Now that

I'm watching what I eat, I'm trying to only drink 1 or 2 aday. Use to I

would drink a 6 pack of diet cokes, cause I love the taste.I was going to go

to the doctor about it but of course when I make the appointment it

disappears.

thanks for your time.
