Prof Tom Sanders is Head of the Nutritional Sciences Research Division, King's College London.

He has made a name for himself defending the controversial artifical sweetener aspartame in the media. He said:

The key point is that we can help people to live healthier lives if they can reduce their calorie intake. Sweeteners (aspartame) have a valuable role to play in the fight against obesity.[1]

In response to research showing an aspartame link to brain cancer, Sanders said:

There is simply no evidence to show aspartame causes cancer. It is probably the most stiffly tested substance we consume.[2]
