aspartame issue takes an interesting turn:from BBC News article
Scientists are to assess whether the artificial sweetener aspartame causes health problems in people unusually sensitive to it.
Expert advice is that aspartame - found in more than 4,000 products - is safe to consume.
Professor Stephen Atkin, who will lead the new research, said: "This study is not to determine whether aspartame can be consumed safely; this has already been established, but rather to see whether certain people are sensitive to it."
