Cancer[edit]

That's the first thing that comes to my head when I hear of aspartame. Been duped or not? Osaka Sun (talk) 03:09, 27 February 2012 (UTC)

Um... what just happened?[edit]

Why does the history of this article look weirdly tangled? EVDebs (talk) 23:25, 27 May 2012 (UTC)

Thyroid[edit]

Why no mention of the aspartame vs thyroid controversy here?

I hear that it can interfere with thyroid function but do not know the study support around that. — Unsigned, by: 76.175.0.214 / talk / contribs 20:34, 02 July 2012 (UTC)

Renegade Pharmacist[edit]

So these guys recently released this study of theirs that seems to repeat a bunch of stuff concerning aspartame, basically seems like a lot of fear mongering. I highly doubt a single can of soda is going to effect your body that much. The first clue was the whole "it attacks your enamel." Which is true... if you soak your teeth in it for more than a minute. Most people don't use soda for mouthwash, and to be honest anything acidic will do that to your teeth. Soda is no different than orange juice in that regard, might be a bit more acidic, but it's not going to dissolve your teeth any faster.

These guys seem suspicious, maybe you should look into them. — Unsigned, by: 74.15.133.22 / talk / contribs 22:35, 5 August 2015 (UTC)

Due for an update[edit]

Lots of rekindled interest over this new WHO report, hopefully someone here with knowledge of food science can summarize the findings straight from the WHO’s mouth and get this article more up to date. 75.140.247.38 (talk) 20:43, 28 July 2023 (UTC)
