It's well known for at least 30 years now that aspartame influence on alzheimer and other neurological diseases. Not on rats ... on humans. They still sell it today, they don't care.

I just now saw your reply while using a different client (Coracle via Spring). Must be a different relays thing.
The statist in me wants to say they should pass a law to ban aspartame. The #libertarian in me says the way it is now is how it should be; let the market decide, let people be free to make their own decisions. However, the makers of products with aspartame should be subject to lawsuits and having to pay for any damages.
