A team of scientists from Boston University discovered this in a recent study and concluded that aspartame “wreaks havoc on arteries and may affect blood vessels eventually triggering stroke and dementia”.

Aspartame is the World’s most widely used artificial sweetener. Numerous studies have linked it to serious health problems including:

Cancer

Cardiovascular disease

Alzheimer’s disease

Stroke

Dementia

Intestinal dysbiosis

Mood disorders

Headaches

Migraines

Some examples of aspartame-containing products include:

diet soda

sugar-free ice cream

reduced-calorie fruit juice

gum

yogurt

sugarless candy

Aspartame is a toxin and the consumption of it places stress on the nervous system, which if left untreated, can also lead to health issues.

Chiropractors help reduce stress on the nervous system through chiropractic adjustments.

So in addition to staying away from products sweetened with aspartame, be sure to get adjusted regularly.
