Zoetstof met een bittere nasmaak?
Een andere kant van aspartaam

Rond aspartaam heeft altijd al een zweem van controverse gehangen. Ogenschijnlijk onterecht, want vanuit biochemisch standpunt lijkt aspartaam onschuldig. Toch zijn er vele redenen om die onschuld in twijfel te trekken. Over aspartaam blijft veel onenigheid bestaan, mede door mogelijke belangenverstrengeling in oud onderzoek en door recente studies die nieuwe effecten onthullen.
