> A MUST READ

> *
> In October of 2001, my 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. She was in so much pain, and so
> sick.she just knew she was dying. She put her house, bank accounts,
> lifeinsurance, 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 22**nd**.
> **
> 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 the 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 ‘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. 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 (NutraSweet,
> 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 andis 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 bloodsugar 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 barrierand 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 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 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!*
