Cuts into your sleep, 6 hours in and you'll wake up, which then leads to Alzheimer's and dementia. Chronic consumers will get 5 or less hours of sleep and there's no helping those folk.

That makes sense. I get much better sleep ever since I stopped drinking soda.

Source for this claim?

Aspertame is listed as having an LD50. So yes, a lethal dose is possible.

[–] [deleted] 3 pts

Every substance has an LD50, even water.

Not in humans. e.g. THC has no established human LD50.

Doesn't mean that it doesn't exist, just that it hasn't been established. There's an LD50 for THC in mice and dogs.

Yes and alcohol is the antidote. So order yourself a diet rum and coke.

Friends mom had trouble with her arm. Alledgedly carpell tunnel but I think it was the speed or way it occured the doc asked if she drank diet cokes ( contains aspertane) she did around 3 or 4 a day. He told her to stop....dunno resolution. I just find it odd hed ask a question like that

The stuff gives me a bad headache. Companies still use it though because it's way cheaper than sucrolose.

There used to be rumors that it turned into formaldehyde in your body but I'm pretty sure it was deboonked. Im friends with a German doctor that did a study and he found that it tricks your body into thinking there are sugars when there isn't. So it begins the process to break down sugar that isn't there and really fucks with your digestive system making diet soda and sugar free stuff worse for you than regular sodee pop. It's also super high in PKU which is really bad for some people with certain genetic disorder

It's also super high in PKU

PKU is Phenylketonuria which is the genetic disorder where the amino acid phenylalanine is not able to be processed by the body. Nothing is "high in PKU" because it is not a substance. Phenylalanine is and something can be high in that amino acid content, such as red meat or eggs. There aren't many people who have phenylketonuria so it's like saying peanuts are bad for you because some people are allergic to them. Your body needs phenylalanine and most people can handle it. It's not a poison and PKU is not a substance. Get your facts straight.

You are right, people with pku have to avoid eating a certain amount of PHE per day. Sorry I'm not a doctor and i get my acronyms messed up ya big baby. I didn't say that made it bad for you i just pointed out it's especially bad for someone with this rare genetic disorder. Acting like I bad mouthed a Jew here jeesh xD thank you for correcting me tho I do appreciate knowing when I'm wrong

No.

Most things that have aspartame also have caffeine, which is an insecticide.

I thought aspartame was affecting my vision, and doctors made fun of me. Then I realized the peer reviewed published papers said caffeine did all the things I was experiencing.

it contains methanol and affects your neurochemistry due to having phenylalanine and aspartic acid. so yes.
