Apparently, the answer is "No. " The MSNBC article I just referenced mentions research (recent, even) about aspartame - and the conclusion that this artificial sweetener does not, as far as we know, cause cancer, Alzheimer's, et cetera. However, if you have a rare genetic condition called phenylketonuria, aspartame isn't good for you.
Other than that, it appears that aspartame is all right to use as a sugar substitute.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
