you know there use to be this miracle little pill called saccharine, made a dang good cup of tea, my mom truly miss saccharine when they banned it, anyone recall why they banned it, just saying I disagree with the Lady at the Neuros office but ya know, we dont find out its bad till afterward.

heck I am actually waiting for them to tell us about how bluetooths will cause cancer or brain tumors. yes I get a bit cynical about certain things, and am sure it has something to do with how I veiw things, wonder if that lady at the neuros office was also a cynic

I have ALWAYS been a diet soda junkie. Well, for the past couple of months, I have virtually given it up, except for a token soda a couple of times.

Well, dadburnit!!! I still have my sx's!!!

*tossing aspartame email in the trash*

However, I thought I would miss the soda alot and quite to the contrary, I don't even want one now.

I was just told to go on a low sugar/low fat diet by my Dr last wk, so no fun for me!

*boohoo*

well I don't have MS but before we found out why I get "tipsy" off of the air i breath (or at least that is what it appears to be to others who don't know about the inner ear condition). I was being evaluated for MS. And yeah, i heard all the sacrine and aspatrtimane things too.

If aspartimane gives you MS then why DO I NOT have it, since i used to drink diet sodas at one time. that dumb aspartimane email has been circulating around the internet for years now.

Even though I don't have MS I can relate to what ya'll are saying b/c of the time when we weren't sure If i had it or not. I was even asked that question about aspartimane by a doctor so while we can't fight the rumor in all fronts at least there is a place to vent!

Frank, I think saccharin was banned because they thought it was an animal carcinogen. As usual, lab rats get all the fun/blame.
