“…In August 2006 he said in a letter to Environmental Health Perspectives that EFSA ' s conclusions were bizarre, because if the lymphomas / leukaemias observed were indeed caused by an infected colony, then one would observe these cancers not only in females, but also in males. Similarly he noted that the same scientifi c scrutiny that EFSA applied to his studies has not been applied to the April NCI diet questionnaire survey ( Lim et al ., 2006 ). He questioned whether aspartame is an early-or late-stage carcinogen noting that this needs to be researched ( Soffritti, 2006 ).…”

“…The safety of the long-term consumption of ASP (75 mg/kg/day) for 24 weeks at doses equivalent to the amount of ASP in approximately 10 L of beverage per day was documented (Butchko et al, 2002). On the other hand, some researchers found that 6 months after ASP was put into carbonated beverages, 25% of the ASP had been converted to DKP (Lim et al, 2006). This form of DKP would undergo a nitrosation process in the stomach producing a type of chemical that could cause brain tumors (Davis et al, 2008).…”
