Answer:
Aspartame can be made by various synthetic chemical pathways. In general, phenylalanine is modified by a reaction with methanol and then combined with a slightly modified aspartic acid which eventually forms aspartame. 5 The amino acids derived from the fermentation process are initially modified to produce aspartame.
Common artificial sweeteners include:
Aspartame.
Sucralose.
Acesulfame K.
Saccharin.
Xylitol
