Ever heard of ?Aspartame?? Aspartame is an artificial, non-saccharide sweetener, known to bring possible health risks. Sold commercially under names like NutraSweet, Equal, Spoonful, Equal-Measure and Canderel, aspartame can be found in more than 6,000 products including diet sodas, juice and artificial water, breakfast cereals, chewing gum, jams, and more.

A girl named Victoria Inness- Brown has made a research and experiments about the danger of aspartame in our body. Daily, she fed about a 108 rats for 2 years and 8 months - the equivalent, for their body weight, of two-thirds the aspartame contained in 8-oz of diet soda. Eleven of the females who took aspartame -- 37 percent -- developed tumors, some of massive size.
