Aspartic acid does not cross the blood brain barrier but is secreted into the cerebral spinal fluid by the choroid plexus located in the ventricles of the brain. There, in the brain's lower area and upper end of the spinal cord is where Lou Gehrigs, Parkinson's Disease and Multiple Sclerosis says damage is most prominent. These critical locations are bathed in the toxin as it is absorbed from the blood. From the third to fourth ventricle there is a narrow canal called sylvian aqueduct which fills with this secretion and washes the roof of the hypothalamus. This is damaging to the hypothalamus.

Aspartame FeedbackSubj: TinnitusDate: 5/3/2009 I have been suffering with tinnitus for about 5 months and I recently discovered that aspartane can cause this or make it worse. Since last summer I have been using drink packs to flavor my water and it was soon after that I started having a swishing noise and ringing noise in my ear. It got so bad that I thought I was going to go crazy. Well I came upon an article about aspartane and I stopped using anything that had it in it and now my noises have decreased tremendously. I hope it eventually goes away totally. Mel If you find this page useful share it with others. Use the form below to add your review, feedback or suggestions on how we can improve.
