Aspartame Poisoning?

One of the most widely used artificial sweetners is aspartame. Aspartame is also known by the names Equal and Nutrasweet. By looking at the ingredients of what makes up aspartame, there doesn't appear to be any cause for alarm. Aspartame is made from different amino acids. With the addition of Methanol. The problem is the methanol. Methanol is wood alcohol and is known to be poisonous. When Methanol is exposed to heat, it breaksdown into formaldehyde, a known carcinogen. Use of aspartame has been linked in individuals to headaches, dizziness, muscle spasms, seizures, nausea and cramping. Persons who suffer from respiratory problems may also have difficulties with aspartame.
