Just wanted to voice my opinion on aspartame.  If so
many problems can be associated with aspartame how can
we continue to subject people to it.  What really gets
me is how can we include it in vitamins, medicines, and
such for pediatrics knowing what could happen to the
children.

To me what is even worse in a society that is
constantly talking about how obese we are we choose
these diet products thinking we are doing right for our
families.  We are given many choices with food and
beverages but not warned on the damages it can do to us.

So really my question is FDA approved means what?
