  1. The claim that aspartame causes cancer is for the most part an urban legend.  Tests showed that lab rats did have a slightly higher chance of contracting cancer... when aspartame was 70% of their diet.  Which is pretty much impossible to do unless eat about two pounds of sweet'n'low every day.


  2. These are the articles referenced in the American Cancer Society's website that relate to aspartame.



    The site itself has some really good info too that explains where the urban legend started.
