Hi guys!
Something weird just happened to me. I only chew Spry gum, as aspartame makes me feel very wired or racy. I think most of us can't tolerate it well. I had put some teeth whitener on my teeth(an Avon one, brush on) and started to feel like almost hyper(I am on meds and mostly hypo) I said"wait a minute!" and ran to see the ingredients on the small bottle.It read phenyllaline, I knew that sounded not good so I went online and found this, no wonder Elaine says to avoid it. I once chewed regular juicy fruit and had the same feeling only to find out it had aspartame in it too! Watch for those triggers! (Gonna go brush my teeth now)

" Hi Brans,
Yes! I had the same thing happen to me with a tooth whitener that had aspertame in there. I didn't think I could possibly get a large enough dose to notice, but it was. I stopped using it, too. "

" Hi brans:

I have to check every toothpaste before I buy it before using it. I have the exact same problem too. I can handle Tom's of Maine, Claybrite, Spry, Periocleanse, and Nara. Everything else I can have problems with.

{{{hugs}}} :-) "
