What is Aspartame?
Aspartame is an artificial low calorie sweetener that is often used as a replacement for sugar or sucrose. Aspartame is up to 200 times sweeter than sugar/sucrose and so less is needed, this is the main reason why products containing aspartame have fewer calories than products containing sugar/sucrose. Aspartame is a compound made up of two amino acids, aspartic acid and phenylalanine.
