Even if the safety of Aspartame has been affirmed by FDA for many times over the past 23 years, The FDA receives more complains about it's adverse reactions to aspartame compared to any other food ingredient in the history.
Many people suffer from immediate reactions from taking aspartame, Those immediate reactions or symptoms attributed with aspartame includes:
