Oops, @Ice_Breakers, need your help: someone who can’t have aspartame due to #pku accidentally ate some of your mints. Can you tell us how much *aspartame* there is per mint? Thanks!

Thank you @RepMcGovern for advocating on the House floor today for the 2.7 million Americans with gastrointestinal or inherited metabolic disorders who rely on #medicalnutrition. It's #TimeforMNEA
I introduced the Medical Nutrition Equity Act with @RepRutherfordFL so families impacted by inherited metabolic diseases or gastrointestinal conditions can access the specialty food and formula they need to live their lives to the fullest. Congress should pass it NOW!
