Equal, also known as Aspartame, NutraSweet and Spoonful, is one of the most widely used artificial sweetener in the United States. Found in more than 6,000 products nationwide, Equal is now a part of our daily lives. Even though the FDA confirmed that Equal is safe, independent researchers claimed that it is not and can cause cancer, obesity, diabetes, headaches, blindness, Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease, and seizures. So, which one should you believe? The FDA or independent researchers? My advise is to trust the independent researchers more than the FDA because independent researchers are not influenced by money from food and drug companies.
