"I am not convinced these sweeteners are as safe as they should be, given their widespread use,” says Fowler, a faculty associate in the division of clinical epidemiology at the University of Texas Health Science Center in San Antonio. “I am concerned that we are in the middle of a giant experiment and we don’t know the outcome.”
The ingredients of aspartame are aspartic acid and phenylalanine. Both are naturally occurring amino acids. Aspartic acid is produced by your body and phenylalanine is an essential amino acid that you get from food.
When your body processes aspartame, part of it is broken down into methanol. Although toxic in large quantities, small quantities of methanol are not toxic. It is naturally produced by the body and is also found in fruit, fruit juice, fermented beverages, and some vegetables. The amount of methanol resulting from the breakdown of aspartame is low. In fact, it’s far lower than the amount found in many common foods.
