Health Canada would do well to discuss aspartame and its proven harm with Robert C. Post, Ph.D., M.Ed., M.Sc., the Senior Director, Chobani Health and Wellness/Corporate Affairs, at CHOBANI, LLC, the leading yogurt manufacturer. (Dr. Post previously served as key nutrition advisor to the former White House/First Lady's Office and collaborator on the White House Let's Move! Initiative.)

The multi-media advertising blitz for Chobani's Simply 100 Greek Yogurt line emphasizes that the products do not contain artificial sweeteners or artificial preservatives. Chobani's advertising "notes that sucralose, an artificial sweetener found in Dannon Light & Fit Greek Yogurt, is processed with added chlorine, which prevents sucralose from being broken down into the body for energy, according to the FDA," according to a Jan. 11 2016 news release from Chobani.

If I were able to speak directly with Canadian Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, I would first remind him of his father's insights about how living next to the United States is like "sleeping next to an elephant," and how little he thought of those "pipsqueaks in the Pentagon." Then I would ask him to do several things:

1) Either by Prime Minister's Executive Order, if possible, or by a concerted parliament action, ban all imports of all products containing aspartame into Canada, including both food products and medicines. This would include products and the chemical itself from the United States, as well as Japan, the home of Ajinomoto, plus other manufacturers in China and India.
