I mentioned this on the last aspartame thread, but there is a significant correlation between obesity and the introduction of aspartame in Diet Coke. Unfortunately, the data was inconsistently taken in the late seventies through early 90s, but something happens between the last data from the early 80s to the first data from the early 90s that caused obesity rates to accelerate as never before seen (if anything, severe obesity was declining going into the 80s). https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/hestat/obesity-adult-17-18/obe...

There is literally billions of dollars to astroturf the safety of aspartame.

I don’t know if there is a correlation with Autism, but it does not seem completely inert either. I also have a hard time believing statements like - it can only do the following things to the body. We were told similar things about mRNA (can’t travel outside the localized muscle area, destroyed by the body in x many days, etc.) that may have been true in a lab, but was not in practice.

I can believe a correlation with obesity, but the mechanism for autism isn't necessarily the same. I don't think the psychological mechanism of "I had a diet coke, so I'm entitled to have some more dessert" applies equally to having autistic children.

Do you have a source on that?

There have at least been studies that have found mRNA after 15 (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9313234/) and 28 days (https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/apm.13294) and other that show spike proteins months after vaccination.
