I never really cared for these chain letters, but it was interesting so I kept reading it. Anyway, here it is:
READ THIS, IT IS VERY IMPORTANT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Article written by Nancy Markle (1120197)
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 notunderstand 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.
In the case of systemic lupus, we are finding it has become almost as
rampant as multiple sclerosis, especially with Diet Coke
and Diet Pepsi drinkers.
Also, with methanol toxicity, the victims usually drink three to 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 symptomatic.
Unfortunately, we cannot reverse this disease. 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 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!!!!!
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 drugs 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 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 neurons of
the brain.
Dr. Russell Blaylock, neurosurgeon, said, "The ingredients stimulate the
neurons 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 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 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 cannot criticize 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 (Gulf War
Syndrome). 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 Desert
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 herb, 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 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 in 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.
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. You might want to print it
out and hand it out or fax it to people who are not online. Young people
drink a lot of diet coke.
