Aspartame Anxiety

I ate a small container of yogurt one evening. The yogurt was not the usual brand I buy. A few hours later at bedtime, I felt jittery, a little weak and very jumpy. This went on for at least an hour before I was able to relax and go to sleep.

The next day, I got into the trash and found the container for the yogurt. Upon reading the ingredients, the only difference between my usual brand of yogurt and this one was the ingredient of aspartame. Needless to say, I don't ingest aspartame and will not purchase anything with that ingredient in it.
