Ban Aspartame

Created by E.B. on February 18, 2015

We created this this petition when it was publicly released that Aspartame is made in part from the feces of E. coli. Aspartame is an artificial sweetener used in gum. Aspartame is metabolized inside your body into both wood alcohol (a poison) and formaldehyde (which is a carcinogen used as embalming fluid and is not eliminated from your body through the normal waste filtering done by your liver and kidneys). It's been linked to birth defects, cancers, brain tumors, and weight gain. Aspartame accounts for over 75 percent of the adverse reactions to food additives reported to the FDA. Many of these reactions are very serious, including seizures and death.
