[QUOTE="gbswales, post: 846867, member: 21675"] I think that it is too easy to become overly concerned with the notion of toxic substances. I think that I accept that there is no scientific evidence for aspartame causing harm in the very small quantities used in fizzy drinks. If you are drinking 10 or more fizzy drinks a day then I think you have a far bigger problem than the small amount of aspartame. Yes some people record side effects and if they are sure of the cause then they choose to avoid it. To the person drinking Gin and Tonic or Vodka and Coke then I would suggest that the alcahol is almost certainly many times more toxic than any artificial sweetner so if you really want to be healthy give up the gin and the need for tonic goes away! We all take risks with our life for pleasure - what you need is to balance the risks against the pleasure and maybe just accept that we are all going to die at some time. [/QUOTE]
