(PRWEB) October 23, 2003 -Unlike the Slim Fast diet product my Quick Lean weight loss program does not contain aspartame," states Christian Okoye, former Kansas City Chiefs running back, and President of Okoye Fitness.

Aspartame is an artificial sweetener used in place of sugar. Marketed as NutraSweet or Equal, aspartame is the most widely used sugar substitute in the world," continues Okoye.
Consumers have also reported to the FDA, more than 7,000 adverse reactions including dizziness, headaches and seizures."
It is our belief at www.OkoyeFitness.com that there is sufficient evidence from the medical community that aspartame can cause problems. Therefore we have chosen not to gamble with the health of our customers and not include this potentially dangerous ingredient in any of our products."
Since the Food and Drug Administration approved it in 1981, aspartame is now being used in thousands of products all over the world. Other common items containing aspartame include Jell-O, Lipton iced tea, Dannon yogurt, Ocean Spray juice, Welch's fruit juice bars, Carnation cocoa mix, some children's vitamins and a variety of soft drinks, including Diet Coke and Diet Dr. Pepper.
With enough doubt as to the safety of aspartame, I think it is unconscionable that so many health related companies still continue to include this ingredient in their products," concludes Okoye.
