Sweet Misery - A Poisoned World (2005)

100%

Excellent documentary showing how dangerous Aspartame - an artificial sweetener in most diet products - is to human health. From its history, to its effects this video is enough to shock anyone into really looking at their food labels next time they shop. Aspartame is a toxic food that came into the world as an investment By Donald Rumsfeld, while ignoring the deadly effects the tests showed. Take a good look at this video, it could save lives.
