Aspartame Truth
Aspartame Truth: A new report has just been released by Dr Mercola on Aspartame (October 2009). All the people who are consumers of diet soda – Marilyn Vine urges them to please read this Healthymoneyvine web page as the information on aspartame may just save your life! Dr Mercola’s article will be the link below. This is a very small excerpt from his report on aspartame truth: ”On the heels of its approval for use in diet soda in 1983, over a million pounds of aspartame was consumed. Less than a year later, in January 1984, the incidence of brain cancer took off at a rate far higher than any other type of cancer.”
Sweeteners More Dangerous Than You Ever Imagined
The truth about it’s toxicity is far different than what the NutraSweet Company would have you readers believe. In February of 1994, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services released the listing of adverse reactions reported to the FDA (DHHS 1994). It accounted for more than 75% of all adverse reactions reported to the FDA's Adverse Reaction Monitoring System (ARMS). By the FDA's own admission fewer then ONE PERCENT of those who have problems with something they consume ever report it to the FDA. This balloons the almost 10,000 complaints they once had to around a million and they tend to discourage or even misdirect complaints, at least on aspartame. The fact remains, though, that MOST victims don't have a clue that this may be the cause of their many problems! The Aspartame Truth!

How it happens:Methanol is released in the small intestine when the methyl group of aspartame encounters the enzyme chymotrypsin (Stegink 1984, page 143). Free methanol begins to form in liquid aspartame-containing products at temperatures above 86 degrees F and also within the human body. The methanol is then converted to formaldehyde. The formaldehyde converts to formic acid, ant sting poison. Toxic formic acid is used as an activator to strip epoxy and urethane coatings. Imagine what it does to your tissues!

Bad News Summary
Aspartame truth - this is one of the many subjects that I have been reading about for the past 12 years or so. My understanding is that once the source is removed that many of the symptoms will disappear. In other instances the user is left with the end result. A pretty bad situation for someone who probably believes that they have been doing the right thing in using diet drinks to cut down on their sugar intake! Where are the health authorities in relation to protecting their citizen’s health? Our Government officials right throughout the world seem to be more interested in other issues than in looking after the health of their countrymen. In fact in some ways they try to bring this health level down by going after the complementary health industry who at least is trying to do the right thing by individuals.

Are you aware that if the body has the right building blocks, (vitamins and minerals) that it has the ability to heal itself?

Some time ago I purchased a DVD through Dr Mercola’s site called
“Sweet Misery: A Poisoned World”. This is a documentary put together by Dr Russell Blaylock. It is a close examination into what many consider to be a “hoax”: aspartame toxicity. This documentary attempts to look at what is “definitively” known about aspartame and discovers that the label “hoax” in this case is a dangerous misconception. In a journey through interviews with various doctors, lawyers, activists and victims, narrator Cori Brackett discovers symptoms to a much larger problem: our institutions designed to protect the public from harmful substances have failed us.
In a poisoned world, victims are found throughout the country and are finally given a voice. A close examination of the process for approving aspartame by the FDA leads to earlier examples of revolving door activity and how powerful corporations are influencing once trusted institutions. Today, resistance to aspartame continues, as a portrait of this poisoned world also offers hope and remedy.
This DVD was a real eye opener to me! Even though I had been following information on aspartame truth for many years, I still learned even more.
