You are simply speaking from a place of ignorance, but this can be remedied easily. All you have to do is search for studies you want to see on pubmed and you'll see that they exist. The bigger problem for your argument is that there is a preponderance of evidence and studies contrary to your position. You can accuse pubmed of selection bias, but you're doing the same thing by not even attempting to do research on the site and choosing your own biased sites instead. Yes there are studies that show aspartame to be bad. But there are far more showing that it's not. You could do the same thing with aspirin, even though that's "natural." You can even find studies showing that stretching is bad for you. None of those studies mean anything definite, which is why reliability and repeatability is such a big deal. |

Well, using this reasoning Common Core is a good program even though it was written by 14 people mostly from the testing industry and Bill Gates played a role in it's creation and thinks it rocks. The govt is using it so it follows who they relied on is not at all circumspect.

The page I read concluded it was safe though. That's what I am going by as far as this site is concerned. I doubt it’d change my opinion. See why below. Quote:
Do you always make accusations assuming facts held in reality? Meanwhile, you're implying your position is more scientific. Don't assume. I studied before, in fact years ago starting with a certain doctor saying to avoid. I have read other studies even contradictory studies some put up by others when this was last discussed. I have things to get done over re-reading re-researching and re-posting about it. That takes quite a bit of time to "re-research". This is a message board not school. In fact, I burned the food I am cooking after to answer you. Don’t tell me what I have to do. Don’t assume what I have done. Don't tell me how to spend my time. I told you how I operate— too many experts disagreeing—best to stay away. That’s my operating basis on such things. You're the one claiming it as fact, when I am doing otherwise. So I suggest you stop telling me how I should take care of myself or what my opinion should be or evaluating me from a position of ignorance you yourself have, regarding what I have researched in the past. If you haven’t done the same, then you are simply projecting here. Have you read other studies from different sources besides the acceptable mainstream ones. And besides the one on this site? Have you read the politics as to how it got approved when Searle was going to be investigated for how they conducted their studies? Quote:
Again, how about you study the other side? Without resorting to calling certain doctors as “quacks” even. Quote:
BTW I used to use it often. I didn't want to give it up...so felt it was safe. I didn't change my mind at the drop of a hat. Quote:
Quote:
One last time, where there is controversy I avoid the substance. I also go by my doctor who supports this view as she is into natural healing. Now I have my position and you have yours. How about you now respond to others who don’t consider it safe? EDITED: to fix spelling and some grammar Last edited by BucEyedPea; 04-24-2015 at 04:55 PM.. |

The fact that you're using an ad hom, tells me you're ceding the argument as you can't refute that. |

I've already done that. I also never said I made a decision just that where there are too many contradictory facts I think it's best to avoid. My doctor says it is a neuro-toxin though. Says the same about sucralose. |

Aha! Caught you. Now I have stated my position. It's not going to change. Isn't it time you focus on a few others who said they don't think it's good in their own words. Or is does it make you feel tougher, like a man to only focus on a woman's position? |

No the only facts are that experts disagree, studies contradict. The same site you're defending even admits that. You're the one claiming a fact. I am not. Please read with some comprehension. Quote:
The thread asked for views and advice. It is your opinion it is misinformation. It is the opinion of that site that aspartame is safe. It may be based on certain facts but it's still an opinion. You don't know the difference between the two. I only said it was best avoid due to contradictory information by different health professionals and experts both highly qualified. That was my position on this matter. I didn't say anyone had to do it like your telling me to stop. Quote:

If you want to think aspartame is safe, then use it. If I want to avoid it due to expert disagreements, who I trust as a source, then I will do that and I will speak my mind about doing that and why. Last edited by BucEyedPea; 04-24-2015 at 05:30 PM.. |

I'm done with the argument as it's not going anywhere. Agree to disagree because I have other things to attend to now.
I also do not call for a ban on it. Consumer should make their own decision, buyer beware and all that. |
