According to the CIn the fight once morest cancer, aspartame, which to this day retains its title as the most used sweetener in the world, is contained in more than 6,000 so-called “light” or “light” food products. Although numerous expert reports have ruled out any harmful or pernicious effect on health over the last decade, two European studies will nevertheless cause significant upheaval. The first, carried out by the Ramazzini Foundation in Bologna from 2005 to 2010, concluded that aspartame causes cancer, particularly of the liver and lungs, in rats and mice who have consumed it throughout their existence.
However, EFSA ruled that “the increased incidence of lymphoma-leukemia in treated rats was not linked to aspartame“, particularly due to certain pathological changes linked to the age of the subjects. Also, in 2010, a Danish study published in theAmerican Journal of Clinical Nutrition stated that drinking at least one soft drink per day containing a sweetener increases the risk of premature birth by 27%, up to 78% if you drink more than four. But here once more, the EFSA is more measured, signaling that other environmental factors, and especially exposure to other food products, should be taken into account.
