A common sweetener, aspartame is to be labelled a possible carcinogen next month…so says the Independent Newspaper and this news is widespread in the media right now .
I want politicians and consumers to lobby Drinks Manufacturers to get them to use Stevia a plant derived sweetener which is not considered harmful
Why is this important?
Increasingly we seek to drink so called healthier “ diet” no sugar drinks like Diet Coke and “low or no sugar “ mineral waters and carbonated drinks and “ energy drinks”. These usually contain Aspartame which is carcinogenic. They could be replaced with drinks zero sugar drinks sweetened by the safe natural Stevia plant based sweetener.
