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.
Systemic Lupus:
In the case of systemic lupus, we are finding it has
become almost as rampant as multiple sclerosis, especially 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 can not reverse this disease.
Multiple Sclerosis:
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. Espisto (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 when
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 dmgs 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:
Memory loss is due to the fact that aspartic acid and
phenylalanine are neurotoxic without the other amino acids found in protein. Thus it goes
past the blood brain barrier and deteriorates the neurones of the brain. Dr. Russell
Blaylock, neurosurgeon, said, "The ingredients stimulates the neurones 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).
No Aspartame!
Just before the Conference, I received a FAX from Norway,
asking for a possible 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
Association, 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 can not
criticise 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 Desert Storm health problems. The burning tongue and other
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 neurosurgeon, 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 Metzenbaum 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 behavioural 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.
