Guest guest Posted June 18, 2001 Report Share Posted June 18, 2001 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 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. 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 '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.

Guest guest Posted June 19, 2001 Report Share Posted June 19, 2001 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.
