Two studies in 2010 linked aspartame with a slight increase in adverse health outcomes. However the EFSA said that after careful study of the findings, it found no reason to change the current safety assessment of aspartame.
“This process has ensured that no stone has been left unturned and that the widest possible range of scientific views and information are considered before EFSA’s Panel on Food Additives and Nutrient Sources Added to Food (ANS Panel) adopts its opinion”, a statement by EFSA said.
