KANSAS CITY, Kan. — NutraSweet, the newly developed sweetener often found in soft drinks, has been found to cause brain damage in laboratory rats.
"There are a lot of questions about it," said Deborah Kipp, a dietician and nutritionist at the University of Kansas in St. Louis, who said long-term effects of it are a concern."

Kipp said that researchers had given high doses of aspartame, the generic term for NutraSweet, to laboratory rats and found that it raised the amino acid
"They found that high levels of aspartame slowed the neurotransmitters in the rats' brains," she said. "That basically means that too much aspartame in the system may cause damage."
Kipp said that she did not think aspartame would cause cancer because of its amino acid composition. She said that cyclamates and saccharin, artificial sweeteners that were banned in many countries, were chemical compositions and that the chemicals probably added to the cause of cancer.
level in their brains, hindering certain responses.
But Kipp quickly added that the large amount of aspartame given to rats may not be an accurate representation of what happens when humans consume aspartame.
Another negative aspect of aspartame, Kipp said, is that people with phenylalanine, a liver disease, could
"You have to give great amounts in a short amount of time to see the long-term effects on humans," she said. "But most people would most likely never have that large of an amount in their systems."
Because it is sweeter than sugar, smaller amounts can be used, the larger amounts should be used.
not consume large amounts of it because of its amino acid composition. But not all aspects of the sweetener are negative.
According to a pamphlet published by the Searle Corporation, which manufactures NutraSweet, aspartame is 200 times sweeter than sugar and has no bitter or metallic taste like saccharin.

More students are studying abroad the semester than ever before a study abroad program.
This semester, 129 students are studying abroad, she said, and 108 students studied abroad last fall.
"I think the reason for the increase is because we've expanded a lot of what we offer." Heidi Gregori-Gahan, study abroad advisor said. "I think we have more opportunities than we ever had in the past."
The most popular place to study is Costa Rica, Gregori-Gahan said. Thirty students are studying in Costa Rica this semester, she said.
Students probably choose to study there because it's inexpensive, she said. In some cases it costs less to study there than at the University of Kansas, she said.
Several years ago Britain increased tuition for foreigners and many KU students lost interest in the program, Gregori-Gahan said.
Britain is another popular place to study, she said. More than 20 students are studying in various locations throughout the country this semester.
But since that time, the study abroad office has negotiated with several universities in Britain for reduced rates for KU students, she said.
