that there is no indication of any genotoxic or carcinogenic potential of aspartame and that there is no reason to revise the previously established ADI for aspartame of 40 mg/kg [body weight].

I can find you hundreds of studies that PROVE otherwise, rather than just saying "there is no indication". I suggest you start by reading the history of aspartame and the FDA. Crony capitalism is the only reason it's even approved for use in our products.

Regardless of the fact that the increase in autism rates mirror the increase in vaccines offered and given to children. Or the thousands of cases of perfectly healthy babies who were vaccinated only to become autistic shortly after. NO WAY THAT COULD BE CONNECTED, I'M JUST A NUT JOB THAT WON'T JUST LISTEN TO WHAT THEY TELL ME! LOCK ME UP!

[URL="http://www.efsa.europa.eu/en/faqs/faqaspartame.htm#22"]22. What about the second study that looked at long-term carcinogenic effects?

The ANS Panel considered findings from long-term studies conducted in experimental animals related to toxicity and carcinogenicity on the developing fetus. In its review of the Soffritti et al. (2010) publication, EFSA’s scientists concluded that, on the basis of the information available in the publication, the validity of the study and its statistical approach cannot be assessed and its results cannot be interpreted. Regarding the design of the study, and in line with the global scientific consensus, EFSA advised that experimental studies carried out over animals’ lifetimes can lead to erroneous conclusions. Older animals for instance are more susceptible to illness and when a carcinogenicity study in mice is extended beyond the recommended 104 weeks, age-related pathological changes (such as spontaneous tumours) can appear which may confound the interpretation of any compound-related effects. Furthermore, EFSA noted that Swiss mice (used in this study) are known to have a high incidence of spontaneous hepatic and pulmonary tumours and that the increased incidence of these tumours reported in the study fall within the historical control range recorded in this laboratory for these tumours in these mice.

No way that could be caused by unnatural chemicals that we're ingesting in our food on a daily basis. I suppose you also think GMO plants are awesome. Ever notice how there is ALWAYS some major organization right there to deny any theory of what is causing cancer rates to grow? How many have you ever seen come up with another answer for why it's happening?
