Very Important - Aspartame!
There are five strategies for vibrant health and longevity.
First of all, what you DO is important, such as taking
effective food supplements, drinking
pure water, eating whole (unprocessed food), etc. The second
thing you must do to insure your health (or recover it) has
to do with what you DON’T do–in other words, what you
AVOID. This message has to do with one example of the later,
with evidence from an unlikely source!
If a 6th grade student can prove aspartame that is used in
Diet drinks is poisonous, then why is the FDA ignoring it?
To assume that because it is so “little an amount” that it
is “not harmful” can be a disastrous and even fatal mistake
(as the ancient prophet spoke, “my people perish for a lack
of knowledge”).
If you drink this stuff, these insidious toxins can build
up in your body. The damage can take a long time to manifest
themselves symptomatically, but that does not discount what
is happening. To ignore this is, in my perspective, a very
costly mistake. Too much is at stake (i.e. your health and
your life!).
Sixth Grade Student Reveals Diet Coke/NutriSweet as Poison
in Science Project
Jennifer Cohen, an eleven year-old, sixth-grade student in
Oradell, New Jersey, conducted an experiment proving
aspartame breaks down into deadly neurotoxins when stored.
Her results are not surprising to those who are informed on
the true nature of aspartame.
Jennifer purchased a new case of Diet Coke from the
supermarket. She stored seven cans in the refrigerator,
seven cans at room temperature (69), and seven cans in an
incubator at 104 (the daytime temperature in Phoenix Arizona
during the summer) for ten weeks. The remaining three cans
were tested at Winston Laboratories in New Jersey for
aspartame content. After ten weeks of storage, the
experimental cans were taken to the lab for analysis.
The original level of aspartame in the three cans of Diet
Coke tested was .06%. The level of aspartame found in the
cans stored in the refrigerator was .058% - the missing
aspartame turned into .001% DKP and 53.5 parts per billion
of formaldehyde. Aspartame levels of the room temperature
soda were .051% with DKP levels of .002% and 231 parts per
billion of formaldehyde. The aspartame level in the
incubator sodas was tested at .026% with .010 % DKP and 76.2
parts per billion formaldehyde.
The cost of testing for Jennifer’s experiment was $1250, an
insurmountable sum for a sixth grade student to spend on a
science project. If an eleven-year-old is so easily able to
prove the poisonous nature of Diet Coke and aspartame, one
must look toward Searle/Monsanto and the FDA for answers as
to why this poisonous chemical remains on the market. The
FDA refuses to test aspartame and is relying on questionable
industry studies for the basis of their decisions. Is the
FDA working for the health and safety of individuals or for
the commercial interests of Monsanto? A sixth grade student
is willing to sacrifice her time and money for this
important issue, while the FDA turns its back. The FDA’s
position is clear. It is time that individuals realize that
the FDA does not deserve their faith and trust; we need to
take our health more seriously and stop relying on the
system that doesn’t care.
Aspartame has accounted for more than 75% of all adverse
reactions reported to the FDA. Fewer than one percent of
those who have problems with a product ever report it. Some
reactions reported to the FDA are:
Abdominal Pain, Anxiety Attacks, Arthritis. Asthma, Birth
Defects, Brain Cancer, Burning urination, Chest Pain, Coma,
Cough, Chronic Fatigue, Confusion, Death, Depression,
Diarrhea, Dizziness, Edema, Excessive Thirst/Hunger,
Fatigue, Hair Loss, Hearing Loss, Headaches, Hives,
Hyperglycemia, Hypertension, Hypoglycemia, Impotency,
Insomnia, Irritability, Itching, Joint Pain, Marked
Personality Changes, Memory Loss, Menstrual Problems,
Migraines, Muscle Spasms, Nausea, Numbness, Rash, Seizures,
Tremors, Vision Loss, and Weight Gain.

Why is the FDA ignoring the poison effects of aspartame??. . . you ask?
Well, if one does some research into bringing a product into public usage,
one will find that a fellow in the syndicate (yes, the MOB) was running a
race with the people who wanted to get Stevia on the market at the same
time. Well, it seems that the guy with the aspartame got in by a GIANT
payoff to someone on the FDA approval board and the guy with the Stevia got
squeezed out. Politics!!! That is why.
