Diet Soda -- True story
Aspartame has been
linked to:
brain
cancer, memory loss, impaired vision, hearing loss, joint pain,
asthma, coma, seizures...?
Don't blame God for this! He didn't make it.
July 2005
A new three
year study has confirmed the link between aspartame and cancer. The
toxic sweetener was known to be dangerous when corrupt FDA officials
approved it against the advice of their own scientists.

This new study was
also reported on 14 July 05 by the BBC in their report entitled:
Fresh doubts about the safety of an artificial sweetener have
been raised by Italian scientists who have linked its use to
leukemia's in rodents.

In October of 2001, a friend's 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. Because of her
pain and sickness, she was sure she was dying.
She put her house, Bank accounts, life insurance, etc. in her oldest
daughter's name, and made sure that her younger children were to be
taken care of. She also wanted a last hoorah, so she planned a
trip to FL (basically in a wheelchair) for March 22nd.
On March 19th my friend called her to ask how her most recent tests
went, and she said they didn't find out anything on the test, but
they believed she had MS. He recalled an E-mail article I
might have sent to him and asked his sister if she drank diet pop?
She told him that she did. As a matter of fact, she was about
to open one at that very moment. He told her not to open it,
to stop drinking diet pop altogether. He then E-mailed her the
Aspartame article. His sister called him within 32 hours after
their phone conversation and told him she had stopped drinking the
diet pop AND she could walk! The muscle spasms went away as
well. She said she didn't feel 100% but she sure felt a lot better.
She told him she was going to her doctor with this article and would
call him when she got home. Well, she called 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 FL 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!
ASPARTAME," is marketed as 'NutraSweet', 'Equal', and 'Spoonful'.
In a keynote address by the EPA, it was announced that in the United
States in 2001 there was an epidemic of multiple sclerosis and
systemic lupus. It was difficult to determine exactly what
toxin was causing this to be rampant.
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. Many cases have been seen where vision loss
returned and hearing loss improved markedly. This also applies to
cases on tinnitus and fibromyalgia.
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, anxiety attacks,
slurred speech, blurred vision or memory loss... you may have
ASPARTAME poisoning! 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. A doctor
remarked that so many people seemed to have been symptomatic for MS
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. Doesn't this seem 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!
Aspartame is especially dangerous for diabetics. We found that
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 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 ADHD have had complete turn around 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: EXCITOXINS:THE TASTE THAT KILLS
by Dr. Russell Blaylock, (Health Press 1-800-643-2665) and DEFENSE
AGAINST ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE 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 product 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 5000 products on the market that contain this
deadly chemical and there will now 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 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 know 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 are informed now! YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO KNOW! Please print
this out and / or E-mail to your family and friends! They have
a right to know, too.

2 March 2008 Update
The Jerusalem Post's health page of March 2, the
headline was: "Artificial sweeteners may cause weight gain," based
on research published by the American Psychological Association.
It seems that sweet foods provide a "salient orosensory stimulus"
which strongly predicts that one is about to take in a lot of
calories, and the body's ingestive and digestive reflexes gear up
accordingly to deal with them. But when the sweetness is "false," as
in diet drinks, and isn't followed by lots of calories, the system
gets confused, interfering with the body's ability to regulate
intake. |
