Dear New Searcher,
The symptoms you describe sound like the symptoms others describe as a
consequence of using aspartame, the sweetener in diet soft drinks. Here is an
interesting article on this:
WORLD ENVIRONMENTAL CONFERENCE on "ASPARTAME"
Date: Wed, 08 Dec 1999 03:34:02 -0800
FOR YOUR INFORMATION
Aspartame...Multiple Sclerosis...Systemic Lupus and Monsanto
WORLD ENVIRONMENTAL CONFERENCE and the MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS FOUNDATION
F.D.A. ISSUING FOR COLLUSION WITH MONSANTO
Article written by Nancy Markle (1120197)
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, they announced that there was an Epidemic of
multiple sclerosis and systemic lupus, and they did not understand what toxin
was causing this to be rampant across the United States.
I explained that I was there to lecture on exactly that subject. When the
temperature of Aspartame 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 multiple sclerosis; thus people were being
diagnosed with having multiple sclerosis in error. The multiple sclerosis is
not a death sentence, where methanol toxicity is.
In the case of systemic lupus, we are finding it has become almost as rampant
as multiple sclerosis, especially in Diet Coke and Diet Pepsi drinkers. Also,
with methanol toxicity, the victims usually drink three to four 12 oz. cans of
them per day, some even more.
In the cases of systemic lupus, which is triggered by ASPARTAME, the Victim
usually does not know that the aspartame is the culprit. The victim continues
its use, aggravating the lupus to such a degree, that sometimes it becomes life
threatening. When we get people off the aspartame, those with systemic lupus
usually become asymptomatic. Unfortunately, we cannot reverse this disease.
On the other hand, in the case of those diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis,
(when in reality, the disease is methanol toxicity), most of the Symptoms
disappear. We have seen cases where their vision has returned and even their
hearing has returned. This also applies to cases of tinnitus.
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, depression, anxiety attacks, slurred speech, blurred vision, or
memory loss-you probably have ASPARTAME DISEASE!"
People were jumping up during the lecture saying, "I've got this, is It
reversible?" It is rampant. Some of the speakers at my lecture even were
suffering from these symptoms. In one lecture attended by the Ambassador of
Uganda, he told us that their sugar industry is adding aspartame! He continued
by saying that one of the industry leader's son could no longer walk - due in
part by product usage!
We have a very serious problem. Even a stranger came up to Dr. Joseph Esposito
(one of my speakers) and myself and said, "Could you tell me Why so many
people seem to be coming down with MS?
During a visit to a hospice, a nurse said that six of her friends, who Were
heavy Diet Coke addicts, had all been diagnosed with MS. This is Beyond
coincidence.
Here is the problem. There were Congressional Hearings in which Aspartame was
included in 100 different products. Since this initial hearing, there have been
two subsequent hearings, but to no avail. Nothing as been done. The drug and
chemical lobbies have very deep pockets. Now there are over 5,000 products
containing this chemical, and the PATENT HAS EXPIRED!!!!!
At the time of this first hearing, people were going blind. The Methanol in
the aspartame converts to formaldehyde in the retina of the eye. Formaldehyde
is grouped in the same class of drugs as cyanide and arsenic-DEADLY POISONS!!!
Unfortunately, it just takes longer to quietly kill, but it is killing people
and causing all kinds of neurological problems.
Aspartame changes the brain's chemistry. It is the reason for severe
seizures. This drug changes the dopamine level in the brain. Imagine what
this drug does to patients suffering from Parkinson's Disease. This drug also
causes Birth Defects. There is absolutely no reason to take this product. It
is NOT A DIET PRODUCT!!!
The Congressional record said, "It makes you crave carbohydrates and Will make
you FAT". Dr. Roberts stated that when he got patients off aspartame, their
average weight loss was 19 pounds per person. The formaldehyde stores in the
fat cells, particularly in the hips and thighs.
Aspartame is especially deadly for diabetics. All physicians know what Wood
alcohol will do to a diabetic. We find that physicians believe that They have
patients with retinopathy, when in fact, it is caused by the aspartame.
The aspartame keeps the blood sugar level out of control, causing many patients
to go into a coma. Unfortunately, many have died. People were telling us at
the Conference of the American College of Physicians, that they had relatives
that switched from saccharin to an aspartame product and how that relative had
eventually gone into a coma. Their physicians could not get the blood sugar
levels under control. Thus, the patients suffered acute memory loss and
eventually coma and death. Memory loss is due to the fact that aspartic acid
and phenylalanine are neurotoxin without the other amino acids found in
protein. Thus it goes past the blood brain barrier and deteriorates the
neurons of the brain.
Dr. Russell Blaylock, neurosurgeon, said, "The ingredients stimulates The
neurons of the brain to death, causing brain damage of varying degrees. Dr.
Blaylock has written a book entitled "EXCITOTOXINS: THE TASTE THAT KILLS"
(Health Press 1-800-643-2665).
Dr. H.J. Roberts, diabetic specialist and world expert on aspartame poisoning,
has also written a book entitled "DEFENSE AGAINST ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE"
(1-800-814-9800).
Dr. Roberts tells how aspartame poisoning is escalating Alzheimer's Disease,
and indeed it is. As the hospice nurse told me, women are being Admitted at 30
years of age with Alzheimer's Disease.
Dr. Blaylock and Dr. Roberts will be writing a position paper with Some case
histories and will post it on the Internet. According to the Conference of the
American College of Physicians, 'We are talking about a plague of neurological
diseases caused by this deadly poison".
Dr. Roberts realized what was happening when aspartame was first marketed. He
said, "his diabetic patients presented memory loss, confusion, and severe
vision loss".
At the Conference of the American College of Physicians, doctors Admitted that
they did not know. They had wondered why seizures were rampant (the
phenylalanine in aspartame breaks down the seizure threshold and depletes
serotonin, which causes manic depression, panic attacks, rage and violence).
Just before the Conference, I received a FAX from Norway, asking for a ossible
antidote for this poison because they are experiencing so many problems in
their country. This poison is now available in 90 PLUS countries
worldwide. Fortunately, we had speakers and ambassadors at the Conference
from different nations who have pledged their help. We ask that you help
too. Print this article out and warn everyone you know. Take anything that
contains aspartame back to the store. Take the "NO ASPARTAME TEST" and send
us your case history.
I assure you that MONSANTO, the creator of aspartame, knows how deadly it is.
They fund the American Diabetes Association, American Dietetic ssociation,
Congress, and the Conference of the American College of Physicians.
The New York Times, on November 15, 1996, ran an article on how the American
Dietetic Association takes money from the food industry to endorse Their
products. Therefore, they cannot criticize any additives or tell About their
link to MONSANTO. How bad is this?
We told a mother who had a child on NutraSweet to get off the product. The
child was having grand mal seizures every day. The mother called her
physician, who called the ADA, who told the doctor not to take the child off
the NutraSweet. We are still trying to convince the mother that the aspartame
is causing the seizures. Every time we get someone off of aspartame, the
seizures stop. If the Baby dies, you know whose fault it is, and what we are up
against.
There are 92 documented symptoms of aspartame, from coma to death. The majority
of them are all neurological, because the aspartame destroys The nervous
system.
Aspartame Disease is partially the cause to what is behind some of the mystery
of the Dessert Storm health problems. The burning tongue and ther problems
discussed in over 60 cases can be directly related to the consumption of an
aspartame product. Several thousand pallets of diet drinks were shipped to the
Dessert Storm troops. (Remember heat can liberate the methanol from the
aspartame at 86 degrees F). Diet drinks sat in the 120 degree F. Arabian sun
for weeks at a time on pallets. The service men and women drank them all day
long. All of their symptoms are identical to aspartame poisoning.
Dr. Roberts says "consuming aspartame at the time of conception can Cause birth
defects". The phenylalanine concentrates in the placenta, Causing mental
retardation, according to Dr. Louis Elsas, Pediatrician Professor - Genetics,
at Emory University in his testimony before Congress.
In the original lab tests, animals developed brain tumors (phenylalanine breaks
down into DXP, a brain tumor agent).
When Dr. Espisto was lecturing on aspartame , one physician in the audience, a
eurosurgeon, said,"when they remove brain tumors, they have found high levels
of aspartame in them".
Stevia, a sweet food, NOT AN ADDITIVE, which helps in the metabolism Of sugar,
which would be ideal for diabetics, has now been approved as a dietary
supplement by the F.D.A. For years, the F.D.A. has outlawed this sweet food
because of their loyalty to MONSANTO.
If it says "SUGAR FREE" on the label-DO NOT EVEN THINK ABOUT IT!!!!!
Senator Howard Hetzenbaum wrote a bill that would have warned all infants,
pregnant mothers and children of the dangers of aspartame. The bill would have
also instituted independent studies on the problems existing in the population
(seizures, changes in brain chemistry, changes in neurological and behavioral
symptoms).
It was killed by the powerful drug and chemical lobbies, letting loose The
hounds of disease and death on an unsuspecting public. Since the Conference of
the American College of Physicians, we hope to Have the help of some world
leaders. Again, please help us too. There Are a lot of people out there who
must be warned, please let them know this information.
