Diet Coke |
Aspartame is a Silent Killer |
Diet Soda |
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, life insurance, etc., in her eldest
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,'
Sugarfree Gold, ‘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 30o C (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/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 NEUROTOXIN 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 ADD and ADHD
have had complete turnarounds in their behaviour when these chemicals have been
removed from their diet. So called 'behaviour 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.'
Here in 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 behavioural 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!
(PS:
Some have left Diet Coke Read Here. Sugarfree Natura and Splenda do not contain Aspartame but have Sucralose, about
which not much is known as yet. Stevia is another new sweetener, considered
safe. One should contact manufacturers’ and find whether their respective
product contains ASPARTAME. They should be asked whether they can give guaranty
against ill effects. Here you may read what HUFFPOST: Healthy Living has to say Diet Soda Associated With Higher Type 2 Diabetes Risk, Study Finds).
Please place comments if whatever said above is wrong. That is necessary to inform people what is wrong and what is true
