Aspartame - Medical faculty - Norway

[Guest guest]

Medical faculty at Norway Technical Scientific University released the

report of this study in Norway yesterday and today in the Danish BT Newspaper:

====================

Lightprodukter, der indeholder sødestoffet aspartam, mistænkes for at dræbe

hjerneceller. Det er særligt de områder i hjernen, som bruges ved

indlæring, der påvirkes, og derfor bør særligt børn undgå lightprodukter.

Det er konklusionen i en hovedopgave fra det medicinske fakultet ved Norges

teknisk-naturvidenskabelige universitet.

M. Ebdrup, B.T., 13

TRANSLATION :

Light products containing the sweetener aspartame, is suspected of killing

brain cells. Especially the areas in the brain used for learning are being

affected, and therefore especially kids should avoid light products.

That is the conclusion in a main assignment from the medical faculty at

Norway technical-scientific University.

====================

This has been known in the US for years. The famed Dr. Olney who

founded the field of neuroscience called excitotoxicity did the studies on

aspartate, (40% of aspartame), which showed it caused lesions in the brains

of mice. Neurosurgeon Blaylock, M.D., Excitotoxins: The Taste That

Kills, www.amazon.com said: " At least one of the components found in

aspartame called aspartic acid is a known excitotoxin that can result in

the death of special neurons within the nervous system. There are two

conditions, often present in the same situation, that increase

vulnerability to the brain toxic effect: young age (an immature brain) and

hypoglycemia. It is known that the human brain does not reach its full

development until age sixteen. Because these neural pathways are still

undergoing development, and the protective mechanisms are immature, the

child's brain is especially vulnerable. We also know that low blood sugar

increases this toxicity significantly. The most vulnerable part of the

brain to this excitotoxicity is the hippocampus of the temporal lobes, a

part of the brain concerned with learning and memory, as well as emotional

functions. It is for these reasons that aspartame should especially be

avoided in young children. " :

H. J. , M.D., who declared Aspartame Disease to be a global plague

has now published a medical text titled Aspartame Disease: An Ignored

Epidemic, www.aspartameispoison.com On page 506 he discusses the

deterioration of intelligence and learning skills in aspartame reactors,

as evidenced by slippage in school performance. He says " It may take a

generation or longer to ascertain the full extent of this problem. " On Page

561 he discusses comparable problems with memory among, younger aspartame

reactors and how they have been attributed to premature aging.

He says this ties into the acceleration of Alzheimers Disease. " The need

for considering exposure to aspartame and other neurotoxins before making a

diagnosis of premature aging is paramount. " . In an earlier book he also

discusses. Dr. said:

" I have observed severe intellectual deterioration associated with the use

of aspartame products. It was usually manifest as great difficulty in

reading and writing, obvious problems with memory and grossly impaired

orientation to time, place and person. In some patients these features

cleared slowly after the avoidance of aspartame. "

Ralph Walton, M.D., Psychiatrist, Chairman of the Center for Behavioral

Medicine: " We have known for years that when aspartame is ingested with a

carbohydrate rich meal the usual physiologic increase in tryptophan is

blocked, while brain phenylalanine and tyrosine concentrations are

increased. These changes in amino acid blocked neurotransmitter precursors

could, I believe, alter indoleamine/catechloamine balance, and thus have a

profound effect on mood and cognition....depressed mood, anxiety,

dizziness, panic attacks, nausea, irritability, impairment of memory and

concentration. "

Bowen, M.D. told the FDA years ago " Every known metabolite of

aspartame is of marked or questionable toxicity and patently unsafe for

human use. " In Aspartame Murders Infants he said: " At every point in the

fertility process aspartame (NutraSweet/Equal/Spoonful/Canderal/Benevia,

etc.) destroys. ....It ruins female sexual response and induces male sexual

dysfunction. Beyond this, aspartame disrupts fetal development by aborting

it or inducing defects. And if a live child is born aspartame may have

heinously damaged the DNA of the baby cursing future generation. " See his

paper on Sperm Warfare.

We are now taking case histories for class action on aspartame starting

with seizures, brain tumors, eye deterioration and blindness, etc. Those

participating in the US should send their case history and contact

information to Bettym19@... or address below, to be forwarded to

attorneys. This includes all states and we are especially interested at

this time with New York, Connecticut and New Jersey.

A pivotal study that ended up approving aspartame was SC-18862, a 52 week

oral toxicity infant monkey study. Seven infant monkeys were fed aspartame,

five had grand mal seizures and 1 died. The seizureswere attributed to high

serum phenylalanine (50% of aspartame) levels. Four types of seizures

triggered by aspartame are listed on the FDA report. Aspartame also

triggered astrocytomas and pituitary adenomas as well as many other types

of tumors. While the FDA did ask for a grand jury investigation and

indictment both U.S. Prosecutors hired on with the defense team and the

statute of limitations expired. For 16 years the FDA refused to approve it.

The manufacturer then hired Rumsfeld, now Secretary of Defense, who

said he would call in his markers and get it approved. See UPI

investigation. President Reagan appointed Dr. Arthur Hull who

over-ruled a Board of Inquiry who said aspartame was never proven safe and

triggered brain tumors and could not be approved. He then went to work for

the PR Agency of the manufacturer and has refused to talk to the press ever

since.

The wood alcohol or methanol in aspartame converts to formaldehyde and

formic acid in the retina of the eye and destroys the optic nerve. In l986

the Community Nutrition Institute in Washington, D.C. petitioned the FDA to

ban aspartame because of the blindness and seizures, but they refused.

Today we are faced with a global plague. Aspartame is a drug that interacts

with most drugs used to treat the problems it triggers as outlined in Dr.

medical text, from Dilantin for seizures, cardiac medication for

the irregular heart rhythm to antidepressants used to treat the psychiatric

and behavioral problems. It even interacts with insulin, and can

precipitate diabetes.

Aspartame is also a chelating agent and chelates the aluminum from the can

and the mercury from your teeth. It also triggers polychemical sensitivity

syndrome sensitizing the victim to even other toxins and GM products. Four

support groups are on line and can be accessed from www.dorway.com where

you will find the reports mentioned in this note.
