As controversial as it is, it's been hypothesized that aspartame may cause depression by excess phenylalanine reducing serotonin conversion. However I've read that a glass of tomato juice contains more phenylalanine comparable to say dozens of cans of diet soda. Is this so? And wouldn't tomato juice have the same alleged negative effects of aspartame?
Also, is anyone aware of any good evidence for a connection between splenda and depression? Thanks a bunch...Saturn
