In October of 2001, my sister started getting
very sick. She had stomach spasms and she was
having a hard time getting around. Walking was a
major chore. It took everything she had just to get
out of bed; she was in so much pain. By March 2002,
she had undergone several tissue and muscle
biopsies and was on 24 various prescription
medications. The doctors could not determine what
was wrong with her. She was in so much pain, and so
sick...she just knew she was dying. She put her
house, bank accounts, life insurance, etc., in her
oldest daughters name, and made sure that her
younger children were to be taken care of. She also
wanted her last hooray, so she planned a trip to
Florida basically in a wheelchair for March
22nd.
On March 19th I called her to ask how her most
recent tests went, and she said they didn't find
anything on the test, but they believe she had MS.
I recalled an article a friend of mine E-mailed to
me and I asked my sister if she drank diet pop? She
told me that she did. As a matter of fact, she was
getting ready to crack one open that moment... I
told her not to open it, and to stop drinking the
diet pop!!! I E-mailed her the article my friend, a
lawyer, had sent.
My sister called me within 32 hours after our
phone conversation and told me she had stopped
drinking the diet pop and she could walk!!!! The
muscle spasms went away. She said she didn't feel
100% but she sure felt a lot better. She told me
she was going to her doctor with this article and
would call me when she got home. Well, she called
me, and said her doctor was amazed! He is going to
call all of his MS patients to find out if they
consumed artificial sweeteners of any kind. In a
nutshell, she was being poisoned by the Aspartame
in the diet soda and literally dying a slow and
miserable death.
When she got to Florida March 22nd, all she had
to take was one pill, and that was a pill for the
Aspartame poisoning! She is well on her way to a
complete recovery and she is walking!!! No
wheelchair!!! This article saved her life If it
says "Sugar Free" on the label, Do Not Even Think
About It!!! I have spent several days lecturing at
the World Environmental Conference on "Aspartame,"
marketed as 'NutraSweet,' 'Equal', and 'Spoonful.'
In the keynote address by the EPA, it was announced
that in the United States in 2001 there is an
epidemic of multiple sclerosis and systemic lupus.
It was difficult to determine exactly what toxin
was causing this to be rampant.
I stood up and said that I was there to lecture
on exactly that subject.
I will explain why Aspartame is so dangerous:
When the temperature of this sweetener exceeds 86
degrees F, the wood alcohol in Aspartame converts
to formaldehyde and then to formic acid, which in
turn causes metabolic acidosis. Formic acid is the
poison found in the sting of fire ants. The
methanol toxicity mimics, among other conditions,
multiple sclerosis and systemic lupus. Many people
were being diagnosed in error. Although multiple
sclerosis is not a death sentence methanol toxicity
is!
Systemic lupus has become almost as rampant as
multiple sclerosis, especially with Diet Coke and
Diet Pepsi drinkers. The victim usually does not
know that the Aspartame is the culprit. He or she
continues its use; irritating the lupus to such a
degree that it may become a life-threatening
condition. We have seen patients with systemic
lupus become asymptotic, once taken off diet
sodas.
In cases of those diagnosed with Multiple
Sclerosis, (when in reality, the disease is
methanol toxicity), most of the symptoms disappear.
We've seen many cases where vision loss returned
and hearing loss improved markedly.
This also applies to cases of tinnitus and
fibromyalgia. During a lecture, I said, "If you are
using Aspartame (NutraSweet, Equal, Spoonful, etc.)
and you suffer from fibromyalgia symptoms, spasms,
shooting, pains, numbness in your legs, cramps,
vertigo, dizziness, headaches, tinnitus, joint
pain, unexplainable depression, anxiety attacks,
slurred speech, blurred vision, or memory loss you
probably have Aspartine poisoning!"
People were jumping up during the lecture
saying, "I have some of these symptoms. Is it
reversible?" Yes! Yes! Yes! Stop drinking diet
sodas and be alert for Aspartame on food labels!
Many products are fortified with it.
This is a serious problem. Dr. Esparto (one of
my speakers) remarked that so many people seem to
be symptomatic for MS and during his recent visit
to a hospice, a nurse stated that six of her
friends, who were heavy Diet Coke addicts, had all
been diagnosed with MS. This is beyond
coincidence!
Diet soda is not a diet product! It is a
chemically altered, multiple sodium (salt) and
Aspartame containing product that actually makes
you crave carbohydrates. It is far more likely to
make you gain weight! These products also contain
formaldehyde, which stores in the fat cells,
particularly in the hips and thighs. Formaldehyde
is an absolute toxin and is used primarily to
preserve "tissue specimens."
Many products we use every day contain this
chemical but we should not store it in our
body!
Dr. H.J. Roberts stated in his lectures that
once free of the "diet products" and with no
significant increase in exercise; his patients lost
an average of 19 pounds over a trial period.
Aspartame is especially dangerous for diabetics.
We found that some physicians, who believed that
they had a patient with retinopathy, in fact, had
symptoms caused by Aspartame. The Aspartame drives
the blood sugar out of control. Thus diabetics may
suffer acute memory loss due to the fact that
aspartic acid and phenylalanine are Neurotoxic when
taken without the other amino acids necessary for a
good balance. Treating diabetes is all about
balance. Especially with diabetics, the Aspartame
passes the blood/brain barrier and it then
deteriorates the neurons of the brain; causing
various levels of brain damage, seizures,
depression, manic depression, panic attacks,
uncontrollable anger and rage.
Consumption of Aspartame causes these same
symptoms in non-diabetics, as well. Documentation
and observation also reveal that thousands of
children diagnosed with ADD and AHD have had
complete turnarounds in their behavior when these
chemicals have been removed from their diet. So
called "behavior modification prescription drugs"
(Ritalin and others) are no longer needed.
Truth be told, they were never needed in the
first place! Most of these children were being
"poisoned" on a daily basis with the very foods
that were "better for them than sugar."
It is also suspected that the Aspartame in
thousands of pallets of diet Coke and diet Pepsi
consumed by men and women fighting in the Gulf War,
may be partially to blame for the well-known Gulf
War Syndrome.
Dr. Roberts warns that it can cause birth
defects, i.e. mental retardation, if taken at the
time of conception and during early pregnancy.
Children are especially at risk for neurological
disorders and should never be given artificial
sweeteners. There are many different case histories
to relate of children suffering grand mal seizures
and other neurological disturbances due to the use
of NutraSweet.
Unfortunately, it is not always easy to convince
people that Aspartame is to blame for their child's
illness. Stevia, which is a sweet herb, Not a
Manufactured Additive, helps in the metabolism of
sugar, which would be ideal for diabetics. It has
now been approved as a dietary supplement by the
FDA. It is known that for many years the FDA
outlawed this "true sweet food," due to their
loyalty to Monsanto Chemical Company.
Books on this subject are available:
Excitotoxins: The Taste that Kills
(1994) by Dr. Russell Blayblock (Health
Press1-800-643-2665) and Defense Against
Alzheimer's Disease (1995) by DR H. J. Roberts,
also a diabetic specialist.
These two doctors will soon be posting a
position paper with case histories on the deadly
effects of Aspartame on the Internet. According to
the Conference of the American College of
Physicians, "We are talking about a plague of
neurological diseases directly caused by the use of
this deadly poison." Herein lies the problem: There
were Congressional Hearings when Aspartame was
included in 100 different products and strong
objection was made concerning its use. Since this
initial hearing, there have been two subsequent
hearings and still, nothing has been done. The drug
and chemical lobbies have very deep pockets. Sadly,
Monsanto's patent on Aspartame has expired!! There
are now over 5,000 products on the market that
contain this deadly chemical and there will be
thousands more introduced. Everybody wants a "piece
of the Aspartame pie." I assure you that Monsanto,
the creator of Aspartame, knows how deadly it is.
And isn't it ironic that Monsanto funds, among
others, the American Diabetes Association, the
American Dietetic Association and the Conference of
the American College of Physicians? This has been
recently exposed in the New York Times.
These Associations cannot criticize any additives
or convey their link to Monsanto because they take
money from the food industry and are required to
endorse their products.
Senator Howard Metzenbaum (1995) wrote and
presented a bill that would require label warnings
on products containing Aspartame, especially
regarding pregnant women, children and infants. The
bill would also institute independent studies on
the known dangers and the problems existing in the
general population regarding seizures, changes in
brain chemistry, neurological changes and
behavioral symptoms. The bill was killed. It is
known that the powerful drug and chemical lobbies
are responsible for this, letting loose the hounds
of disease and death on an unsuspecting and
uninformed public.
Well, you're informed now!!!! You have a right
to know!!!!
