The FDA has fixed a quantity regarding aspartame, according to which it can be consumed at the rate of 50 milligrams per kilogram of body weight every day. At the same time, the European Union has fixed this intake at 40 mg per kg. Meaning if the daily intake of aspartame is more than 40-50 mg per kg then it can be dangerous.
what do doctors say
Doctors in India say that aspartame is linked to a problem for people who suffer from the genetic disorder ‘phenylketonuria’. In this, the body is not able to break phenylalanine. That’s why one should be alert from the amino acids found in aspartame. This is the reason why products made with aspartame carry warnings that phenylketonuric contains phenylalanine and should be avoided.
