Re: Aspertame according to FDA

[Guest guest]

hey, i have been saying this ever since my son turned 8yrs old and

we found the fiengold diet. ASPARTAME is dangerous and if i can help

it i won't eat or drink anything w/it!

thanx for the info!

" When diet sodas and soft

drinks, sweetened with aspartame, are used to replace fluid loss

during exercise and physical exertion in hot climates, the intake of

methanol can exceed 250 mg/day or 32 times the Environmental

Protection Agency's recommended limit of consumption for this

cumulative poison. "

> Neurosurgeon Blaylock, MD, author of " Excitotoxins: The

Taste That Kills, " wrote about the relationship between aspartame

and macular degeneration, diabetic blindness and glaucoma (all known

to result from excitotoxin accumulation in the retina).

H. J. is 1038 pages of symptoms and diseases triggered by

this neurotoxin. The claim is made that aspartame has even caused

the epidemic of obesity because it makes you crave carbohydrates so

you gain weight, and the formaldehyde accumulates in the adipose

tissue (fat cells) according to the Trocho Study. Further

accusations are that aspartame is also responsible for the epidemic

of diabetes as it not only can precipitate diabetes but simulates

and aggravates diabetic retinopathy and neuropathy, can cause

diabetics to go into convulsions and interacts with insulin.

1995 the agency was forced, under the Freedom of Information Act, to

release a list of ninety-two aspartame symptoms reported by

thousands of victims. It appears this is only the tip of the

iceberg. H. J. , MD, published the medical text " Aspartame

Disease: An Ignored Epidemic " -- 1,000 pages of symptoms and

diseases triggered by this neurotoxin including the sordid history

of its approval.

Aspertame caused my stomach to ache. I don't use any of the sugar

substitutes because they make me cramp.

I have heard that it is very good, but also expensive. Isn't that

the one made from sugar? I wonder if Trader Joe's has it.

Stevia is a herb. Splenda is made from sugar.
