SWEET NOTHINGS

Legislative Process To Ban Aspartame

Fifteen New Mexico state senators sponsored a bill to rid New Mexico of what some have called "Rumsfeld's Disease.
A senate bill to rid New Mexico of what has been called “Rumsfeld’s Disease” has been introduced supporting legislation to ban the deadly artificial sweetener, aspartame.
Linked to Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld for his efforts in the 1970s for putting the sweetener on the market, New Mexico is the first state to consider banning the artificial additive linked to numerous ill-health affects, including cancer.

[A recent report from a highly respected international medical team has now linked the toxins in aspartame to lymphomas and leukemia. The report by Morando Soffritti "Aspartame induces lymphomas and leukemias in rats" is in the European Journal of Oncology for July, 2005. Dr. Sofritti is a member of the European Ramazzini Foundation of Oncology and Environmental Sciences Cancer Research Centre in Bologna, Italy.]
