In October of 2001, my sister started getting very sick. She
had stomach spasms and she was having a hard time getting round.
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 daughter's
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 19 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 soda? 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 soda!
I e-mailed her 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 soda 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 22, 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 'Nutra Sweet,' '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, 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 (Nutra Sweet,
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 ASPARTAME 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. Espart (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 AD D and ADHD 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
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 [organizations] 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 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!
Please print this out and/or e-mail To your family And friends.
They have a right to know too!
Those people needing medical attention, especially for serious
or life-threatening illnesses, should seek qualified PROFESSIONAL
MEDICAL ADVICE.
