Our goal is to provide objective information about the sweetener aspartame as a service to nutritionists, doctors, the media, and the millions of people who enjoy products with aspartame every day. Like many sweeteners and food ingredients, aspartame has from time to time been the focus of unfounded criticism. In aspartame's case, there's a wealth of scientific data which supports that ingredient's safety and benefits. Some of this information is available on this site, as are experts' opinions and details of the approvals given by international authorities for the use of aspartame in food and beverages. Throughout the site, material has been provided in formats which are easy to download and use.
Further information is available via the on-line inquiry facility.
This site is maintained by Ajinomoto, one of the world's leading makers of aspartame, but our intention is to let the science speak for itself. If you would like to contact us, please send us an email , call us, or send us a fax. And don't hesitate to let us know if there is anything additional you would like to see on the site.
