The History of Aspartame… : DASH Story 2016-08-04
Story content
I am a Canadian family physician and practice in Integrative medicine. Integrative medicine aims to find the root cause of illness and address this, rather than simply make a diagnosis based on a group of symptoms and treat the symptoms with a medication. As part of my practice I use a low carbohydrate weight loss plan. Many of my patients, especially those who are attempting to lose weight or are aware of the negative health aspects of sugar, use artificial sweeteners. Your article has enabled me to learn about the detailed history of legislation of aspartame, and has enabled me to provide this information to patients, that they can make an informed decision for themselves on the use of aspartame as an artificial sweetener.
