Abstract
Due to the current trend towards sugar-free diets and requirements for cost reduction in the industrial production of foodstuffs, sweeteners that can replace traditional sugar are in the spotlight. However, scientists have been skeptical about the safety of aspartame, one of the sweeteners, since it was officially approved as a food additive. In 2023, the World Health Organization officially listed aspartame as a class 2B carcinogen. Based on multiple experiments conducted by scientists, it can be inferred that aspartame may be carcinogenic. Since consuming aspartame is not beneficial to the human body and has potential harm, the author suggests minimizing or avoiding consumption of foods containing aspartame or replacing this harmful artificial sweetener with natural sweeteners.
