Another aspartame question - Diet & Nutrition Message Board

Hello everyone

I've been trying to lose body fat and have been very successful. However, I've pretty much cut out all my sweets. Someone told me crystal light is a great way to get the sweet kick u need. And I fig that it's better than drinking diet sodas.

I been using the entire pouch mix with my full days serving of water, which is a gallon.

However, I noticed my bowels have been a little off lately (a little looser than normal).

Could the aspartame be causing this? Anyone have any probs with aspartame?

Anyone can be sensitive to anything I guess, but there are people who think that aspartame was created by the devil himself, others that think the same thing about Splenda. Drinking large amounts of fluids are recommended for constipation, so maybe it is simply helping "flush" your body a bit.
