Yes, I found out that aspartame was a direct trigger to my migraines … it’s nasty stuff. I also noticed that cutting caffeine from my diet has kept my migraines less frequent.
As for your question look out for these brands: NutraSweet, Equal,
Spoonful, Canderel,
And these words in the ingredient list on your food: E951, Phenylalanine. non-saccharide sweetener
Also, if you ever see the term “Natural Flavors” – I advise to stay away from that… I hope this helps 🙂
Thanks for sharing!! So glad I’ve been working on avoiding that shit for a few years.
Are there other names that aspartame goes by? I think I just identified that it causes me to get migraines. Just starting research : )
