Cyclamate Acid
Cyclamate acid refers to cyclamates, a family of artificial sweeteners, which are chemically synthesized to provide sweetness without the calories of sugar. Initially popular in many countries, cyclamates were banned by the FDA in 1970 due to concerns about potential health risks. They are still permitted in some countries outside the United States.
