Everything You Need to Know About Aspartame Brochure Updated
 
Food Insight
NewsBite
November/December 2003
 

Now available on the International Food Information Council (IFIC) Foundation Web site are updated text and PDF versions of the Everything You Need to Know About Aspartame brochure. This consumer friendly, eight-panel brochure answers the most common questions about the safety of aspartame and its usefulness in the diet. The brochure, revised in June 2003, was developed in partnership with the American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP) Foundation and favorably reviewed by the AAFP Foundation.

Aspartame is one of the most thoroughly tested food ingredients in the history of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. The information in this brochure highlights the repeated reaffirmation of the safety of aspartame, and the brochure discusses its use as a food ingredient as part of a healthful diet for the general population, including diabetics and people interested in effective weight management.
