Original Note:
Aspartame is one of the most studied food additives in the human food supply. FDA scientists don't have safety concerns when aspartame doesn't exceed ADI. You would have to drink ~19 sodas a day to exceed the FDA Acceptable Daily Intake (ADI). https://www.fda.gov/food/food-additives-petitions/aspartame-and-other-sweeteners-food https://www.mcgill.ca/oss/article/nutrition/taste-science-aspartame https://www.factcheck.org/2023/10/no-proven-health-risks-from-aspartame-but-also-no-proven-benefits/ https://www.cancer.org/cancer/risk-prevention/chemicals/aspartame.html https://www.efsa.europa.eu/sites/default/files/corporate_publications/files/factsheetaspartame.pdf https://www.mcgill.ca/oss/article/medical-health-and-nutrition-you-asked/aspartame-possible-carcinogen https://www.preventatl.com/aspartame/ History: https://www.fda.gov/food/food-additives-petitions/timeline-selected-fda-activities-and-significant-events-addressing-aspartame https://aspartame.org/history-controversy/
