I love this article! It is not the first time I hear the bad reputation of aspartame is unfounded.

AFAIK, there was only one study which said aspartame was dangerous: they fed a rat with a HUGE amount of it (like way more than a human could consume, in proportion) and the rat got ill or died I don't remember. That "study" was obviously flawed yet the media kept talking about it everywhere.

At that point, it wouldn't surprise me if the sugar industry is behind this.
