More Aspartame Havoc
After over 20 years of many warnings/reports about the horrors of Aspartame, you'd think people would be refusing to consume it. And you'd be wrong. Perhaps it's like the jabs, creating cognitive decline so the consumer stops thinking and just responds to the programming that they should take more.
As if blindness, weight gain, and gut destruction, among other things, weren't enough.
The study covers possible mechanisms of injury, notably gut health (everything is connected, and the gut is one of the biggies), and interestingly that Aspartame crosses the blood-brain barrier. Just drink or eat it, no need to soak a Q-Tip in it and shove it up your nose to accomplish that.
Oh, and Splenda (which, like Aspartame, is sold and disguised under different names)? It's horrible on gut health, probably more than Aspartame. I wonder how many years we'll have to wait for a cognition study on Splenda.

A new study by researchers at Florida State University suggests that one artificial sweetener may result in heritable complications when consumed.
The study, published in Scientific Reports, showed that male mice that consumed aspartame yielded offspring with memory and learning problems, indicating that ingestion of the zero-calorie sweetener may alter their sperm’s genetic code.

Both aspartame water drinks represented amounts that were a fraction of what the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) considers safe for people—making up just 7 percent to 15 percent of the agency’s maximum recommended intake.

All male mice were then bred with female mice not given aspartame.

Learning and memory deficits were not passed down to the male mice's second generation of offspring.
[It will be interesting to see what happens if both parents are Aspartame consumers. Hopefully not involving more torturing of mice. And there are overwhelming well-documented studies showing that Aspartame should have been banned long ago, indeed never have been“approved” in the first place].
