What the petition asks
The use of Aspartame and its associated sweeteners are increasingly being linked to many illnesses and medical conditions and even obesity.
Many people use them because of obesity and/or diabetes or to help reduce their sugar and calorie intake. These chemically produced sweeteners are believed to be detrimental to the health and well-being of the population. There are natural alternatives that can be used in place of them.
