In October of 2001, my sister started getting very sick, she had stomach
spasms, she was having a hard time getting around, to walk 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 biopsies, and was
on 24 various prescription medications. The doctors could not figure out
what was wrong with her. She was in so much pain, and so sick, she knew she
was dying.
She put her house, bank accounts, life insurance, etc., in her oldest
daughters name, and made sure her younger children were to be with her
oldest daughter.
She 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 her how one
of her tests went, and she said they didn't find anything on the test, but
they believe she had MS. I thought, oh, my....then I recalled an article a
friend of mine emailed to me..and I asked her...Do you drink Diet pop?
She told me yes, as a matter of fact she was getting ready to crack one open
that moment, I told her not to open it, and stop drinking the diet
pop....and I emailed her the following article. She called me within 32
hours after our phone conversation and told me she stopped drinking the diet
pop, and she can walk...she went up the stairs, and the muscle spasms went
away. She said she didn't feel 100% but sure felt a lot better. She told me
she was going to her doctors with this article and would call me back when
she got home.
She called me, and her doctor was amazed, he is going to call all of his MS
patients to find out if they consumed artificial sweetener. In a nutshell,
she was being poisoned by the aspartame in the diet soda, dying a slow
death.
When she got to FL March 22nd, all she had to take was one pill, and that
was a pill for poisoning....she is well on her way to recovery.!....and she
is walking!!! No wheelchair!!!! This article saved her life! The life
saving article:
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, that it was hard to
understand 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. People
were being diagnosed with having multiple sclerosis in error. The multiple
sclerosis is not a death sentence, where 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 life-threatening We
have seen patients with systemic lupus become asymptotic once taken off diet
sodas. In the case 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 returned and hearing improved markedly.
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 some of these symptoms: Is it reversible?" Yes,
Not drinking diet sodas and keeping an eye out for aspartame on food labels,
yes!
We have a very serious problem. A stranger came up to Dr. Espisto (one of my
speakers) and me 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! Diet Coke and Diet Pepsi, etc. IS NOT A DIET
PRODUCT!
The Congressional Record states that it makes you crave carbohydrates and
will make you FAT. The formaldehyde stores in the fat cells, particularly no
significant increase in exercise, etc., Dr. Roberts in his lecture stated
that he had patient who lost an average of 19 pounds over a trial period.
Aspartame is especially dangerous for diabetics. We found that physicians
would believe that they have a patient with retinopathy, when in fact the
symptoms are 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 without the other amino acids
found in protein. Thus it passes the blood brain barrier and deteriorates
the neurons of the brain, causing in diabetics (as well as in patients not
suffering from diabetes) various kinds of brain damage, seizures,
depression, manic depression, panic attacks, rage, violence. (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 early pregnancy. Children are especially at risk for
neurological disorders and should NOT be given NutraSweet. I can relate
different case histories of children having mal seizures and other
disturbances being on NutraSweet.
Unfortunately it is not always easy to convince a mother that aspartame is
to blame for her child's illness. Only by trial and success will she be able
to warn other mothers to take their children's health in their own hands.
Stevia, a sweet herb, NOT A MANUFACTURED ADDITIVE, which helps in the
metabolism of sugar (which would be ideal for diabetics) has now been
approved as a dietary supplement by the FDA. For years the FDA has outlawed
this sweet food because of their loyalty to MONSANTO.
Books on this subject are available: EXCITOTOXINS: THE TASTE THAT KILLS -
written by Dr. Russell Blayblock (Health Press 1-800-643-2665) and DEFENSE
AGAINST ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE - written by DR H. J. Roberts, also a diabetic
specialist. These two doctors will be posting a position paper with some
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 caused by this deadly
poison." Here is the problem: There were Congressional Hearings when
aspartame was included in 100 different products. Since this initial
hearing, there have been two subsequent hearings, but to no avail. Nothing
has 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!!!!!
I assure you, MONSANTO, the creator of Aspartame knows how deadly it is They
fund among others, the American Diabetes Association, the American Dietetic
Association, the Conference of the American College of Physicians This has
been exposed in the New York Times - to no avail. These Associations cannot
Criticize any additives or convey their link to MONSANTO because they take
money from the food industry and have to endorse their products. 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 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.
