Aspartame found to cause breast cancer, leukemia and lymphomas in latest animal experiments: NewsTarget.com

A new study on aspartame conducted by the Ramazzini Foundation reveals that aspartame causes a dose-dependent increase in cancers (lymphomas, leukemias and breast cancers) when consumed at levels approaching those consumed by humans in diet soft drinks.


The study, entitled "Lifespan Exposure to Low Doses of Aspartame Beginning During Prenatal Life Increases Cancer Effects in Rats" has been accepted for publication in the peer-reviewed journal Environmental Health Perspectives (EHP), the most widely-read environmental science journal in the world. This is the second study conducted by the Ramizzini Foundation documenting the cancer-causing effects of aspartame in animals.
