Aspartame is extensively researched, with over 100 studies assessing its safety. There is no credible evidence of it causing cancer or major health issues in humans. The acceptable daily intake (ADI) is 50 mg/kg of body weight.

Original Tweet

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1851610054115336456

Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
