A sweetener that is set to be listed as 'possibly carcinogenic' can be found in thousands of everyday products, MailOnline can reveal.
Aspartame is added to low calorie, sugar-free foods and even medicines to make them more palatable.
The affected products range from diet fizzy drinks and chewing gum to vitamin gummies and cough remedies.
But the sweetener is set to be listed as 'possibly carcinogenic to humans' in a World Health Organization reclassification, according to insiders. It follows a major safety review into the artificial sugar replacement involving 1,300 studies.
MailOnline has detailed which of Britain's best loved brands contain the hidden sweetener, including Müllerlight, Lemsip and Halls.
