Although the FDA says, based on their reviews of data from more than 113 animal and human studies, neotame is safe for human consumption, some people are not agree with that. Further, Jack Samuels of the Truth in Labeling Campaign, pointed out, "Neotame, like aspartame, contains aspartic acid, phenylalanine, and a methyl esther." Here is a breakdown of the three ingredients.
 * Warning! Combustible dust ** ||= ** Skin contact and inhalation ** ||= **No more than slightly irritating based on toxicity studies. The dry powder may cause foreign body irritation in some individuals. ** ||= **No more than slightly irritating based on toxicity studies. Prolonged contact with the dry powder may cause drying or chapping of the skin. ** ||= **Inhalation of the dust may cause coughing and sneezing. ** ||= **Not toxic if swallowed based on toxicity studies. No significant adverse health effects are expected to develop if only small amounts (less than a mouthful) are swallowed. ** ||
 * 1) **Phenylalanine**: An amino acid necessary for neurotransmitter production. However, according to nutritionist Robert L. Pastore, PhD, "Pregnant women, those with anxiety attacks, individuals with high blood pressure, people with phenylketonuria and pre-existing pigmented melanoma should avoid its supplementation."
 * 2) **Aspartic acid**: Too much of this substance is "suspected to cause brain damage in fetuses,and high doses have been found to destroy brain cells in experimental animals," says Pastore.
 * 3) **Methanol (methyl alcohol, wood alcohol)**: This substance is converted to formaldehyde and formic acid, which have a toxic effect on the thymus gland. Formaldehyde is a known carcinogen, producing cancer of the throat, pharynx and lung, according to Pastore.
 * But in fact phenylalanine in neotame is not permeated of body but go out follow the urine. So neotame is more safe than other sweetener. **
