Guest guest Posted January 17, 2006 Report Posted January 17, 2006 I'm glad to see this. Due to a methylation problem, I cannot deanimate aspartame (because of the phenylalanine) or tyramine in my gut. It makes me black out...and god forbid I should chew gum with it as an ingredient! Even some SUGARED gums contain it now! You just can't be too careful. I wish my wife (who has MS) would stop drinking the stuff in her diet pop... > > This is a message from Aasa. > > Some New Mexicans seem to have their sights (or is it sites ?) set in the right direction. > > I thought the following story would be of interest to you. > > Will New Mexico Legislature Ban Artificial Sweetener Aspartame?

Guest guest Posted January 17, 2006 Report Posted January 17, 2006 Aspartame is also in the children's chewable form of Singulair, which my son needs to take daily for asthma. He cannot swallow pills yet, so I have no other choice. I would rather have sugar in it. redhead60707 <redhead60707@...> wrote: ...I know you can't force her..but that stuff is soooo bad..andreally may exacerbate her symptoms...sugar is better!>> I'm glad to see this.

Guest guest Posted January 17, 2006 Report Posted January 17, 2006 In the past few weeks I have been sending my mother and grandfather (94), who live in Alaska, articles pertaining to aspartame and other additives that I have known them to use. I spoke to my grandfather and he told me when he was very young he worked for Monsanto for a short time. He told me that when he came home from work his lips were blue and he was dizzy. When he inquired about this at work they told him to " drink a glass of milk " for it!

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2006 Report Posted January 18, 2006 We have made a real effort to limit all possible exposures to toxic substances in and around our house. Last spring, we were looking for an alternative to pesticides for killing fire ant colonies. My wife heard that aspartame did the trick. After laughing, I shrugged my shoulders and poured a little on the hill. It was quicker and more effective than Amdro. I now take my iced tea with only lemon.
