I think this woman is wasting a lot of perfectly good rats. Millions and Millions of "Equal" is consumed every day and if there was ANY evidence there would be slimy lawyers trying to take down the company. I think there are so many FAT people that the world would be better off if Obama mandated Equal to keep our kids and adults from
clogging the hospitals with here obesity problems.

16 years ago in college I had a chemistry professor at a major university say "Aspartame is at least 100 times more dangerous to humans than saccharine."

So, no, Ms. Brown may not be conducting a scientifically valide study and yes, someone getting paid to spin bad press is going to discredit her.

I don't know how the government allows this (they are NOT acting in your best interest). I don't know how consumers ignore these warnings (ignorance is bliss until that tumor shuts you down). And I don't know how the companies selling this product can sleep at night (because they don't really care as long as it puts a buck or two in their pockets).

If you drink it, admit to yourself that it hasn't dropped a pound of weight; cease and desist consuming it immediately.

Such a great story I got in touch with Ms. Inness Brown to thank her for her hard work. To those who still trust the multi-million dollar research carried out on behalf of big business, wake up!!

I should mention that during our conversation she did say that the second last line in Kadet's story was incorrect. Her family NO LONGER drinks or eats anything containing aspartame!! It is rather refreshing in this day and age to know that some kids actually do listen to their moms!!

Thank you. When are people going to wake up to the fact that ANYTHING ARTIFICIAL is not good for the body? Bravo.
