Cyclamates were banned by the FDA as a food ingredient in 1969 because the saccharin/cyclamate mixture was shown to cause cancer in experimental laboratory rats. The primary concern was that it could be toxic to some individuals who appear to metabolize cyclamate to cyclohexylamine.
When did they ban cyclamates?
Cyclamic acid, calcium cyclamate and sodium cyclamate share E‑number 952 and are called cyclamates. It is an artificial sweetener that is 30 times sweeter than sugar. It was approved as a sweetener in the USA in 1951 but was completely banned in 1970.
When was saccharin banned in the US?
Saccharin was banned in 1981 because of fear of possible carcinogenesis. Experimentally, no harmful effects on humans were observed with consumption of 5 g saccharin daily over 5 months3.
