Today, Yuka* are launching a major European petition to demand the ban of Aspartame [E number E 951] in our food, alongside the French League Against Cancer* and the NGO Foodwatch*.
* Yuka is a 100% independent mobile Phone App that analyses the impact of food and cosmetic products on health. By scanning the barcode of a product, the application allows you to access the details of the product’s composition and in return indicates a color-coded rating ranging from green to red. The app now has 65 million users in 12 different countries. The aim is to help consumers make more conscious choices, but also to encourage manufacturers to improve the composition of their products.
Please now sign the petition and together, we can make a difference!
Why take action?
Aspartame is an artificial sweetener used to replace sugar in many low-calorie or sugar-free products. It has been classified as possibly carcinogenic to humans by the International Agency for Research on Cancer. It has also been linked to an increased risk of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular diseases. Several studies show that it has no positive effect on weight and may even contribute to long-term weight gain.
Given these unacceptable risks, it’s time to take action.

Yuka is calling on you to ban the additive aspartame/E 951 in food and beverages within the EU.
* Foodwatch is an independent non-profit consumer organisation that fights for safe, healthy and affordable food for all people. We give consumers a loud voice, speak up for transparency in the food sector and defend our right to food that harms neither people nor the environment. By conducting research, exposing scandals, mobilising consumers and lobbying governments, foodwatch provides an important counterweight to the power of the food industry.

It comprises of 103 chapters present all over the French national and overseas territories. It provides advice, support and information to cancer patients and their relatives.
