    The following is interesting.  My concern with it is the usual internet problem of no author name.  It would be interesting to know if the claims are true or not.

        SWEET POISON!   A MUST READ!



        In October 2001 my sister started getting very sick.  She had stomach spasms and she was having a hard time getting around.. Walking was a major chore...It took everything she had just to get out of bed; she was in so 

        much pain.


        By March 2002, she had undergone several tissue and muscle biopsies and was on 24 various prescription medications.. The doctors could not determine what was wrong with her. She was in so much pain, and so sick she just knew 

        she was dying.


        She put her house, bank accounts, life insurance, etc....in her oldest 

        daughter's name, and made sure that her younger children were to be taken care of.


        She also wanted her last hooray, so she planned a trip to Florida (basically 

        in a wheelchair) for March 22nd.


        On March 19, I called her to ask how her most recent tests went, and she 

        said they didn't find anything on the test, but they believe she had MS.


        I recalled an article a friend of mine e-mailed to me and I asked my sister 

        if she drank diet soda?  She told me that she did. As a matter of fact, she 

        was getting ready to crack one open that moment.


        I told her not to open it, and to stop drinking the diet soda! I e-mailed 

        her article my friend, a lawyer, had sent.  My sister called me within 32 

        hours after our phone conversation and told me she had stopped drinking the diet soda AND she could walk! The muscle spasms went away. She said she didn't feel 100% but, she sure felt a lot better.  She told me she was going to her doctor with this  article and would call me when she got home.


        Well, she called me, and said her doctor was amazed!   He is going to call 

        all of his MS patients to find out if they consumed artificial sweeteners of 

        any kind.  In a nutshell, she was being poisoned by the Aspartame in the 

        diet soda...and literally dying a slow and miserable death.


        When she got to Florida March 22, all she had to take was one pill, and that 

        was a pill for the Aspartame poisoning!   She is well on her way to a 

        complete recovery.  And she is walking!  No wheelchair!


        This article saved her life. If it says 'SUGAR FREE' on the label;  DO NOT 

        EVEN THINK ABOUT IT! I have spent several days lecturing at the WORLD 

        ENVIRONMENTAL CONFERENCE on 'ASPARTAME,' marketed as 'Nutra Sweet,' 'Equal,' 

        and  'Spoonful.'


        In the keynote address by the EPA, it was announced that in the United 

        States , in 2001, there was an epidemic of multiple sclerosis and systemic 

        lupus.  It was difficult to determine exactly what toxin was causing this to 

        be rampant.


        I stood up and said that I was there to lecture on exactly that subject. I 

        will explain why Aspartame is so dangerous:  When the temperature of this 

        sweetener exceeds 86 degrees F, the wood alcohol in ASPARTAME converts to 

        formaldehyde and then to formic acid, which in turn causes metabolic 

        acidosis.... Formic acid is the poison found in the sting of fire ants.  The 

        methanol toxicity mimics, among other conditions, multiple sclerosis and 

        systemic lupus.


        Many people were being diagnosed in error.  Although multiple sclerosis is 

        not a death sentence, Methanol toxicity is!


        Systemic lupus has become almost as rampant as multiple sclerosis, 

        especially with Diet Coke and Diet Pepsi drinkers.


        The victim usually does not know that the Aspartame is the culprit.  He or 

        she continues its use; irritating the lupus to such a degree that it may 

        become a life-threatening condition. We have seen patients with systemic 

        lupus become asymptotic, once taken off diet sodas.


        In cases of those diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, most of the symptoms 

        disappear. We've seen many cases where vision loss returned and hearing loss 

        improved markedly. This also applies to cases of tinnitus and fibromyalgia.


        During a lecture, I said, 'If you are using ASPARTAME (Nutra Sweet, Equal, 

        Spoonful, etc.) and you suffer from fibromyalgia symptoms, spasms, shooting 

        pains, numbness in your legs, Cramps, Vertigo, Dizziness, Headaches, 

        Tinnitis,

        Joint pain, Unexplainable depression, anxiety attacks, slurred speech, 

        blurred   vision, or memory loss you probably have ASPARTAME poisoning!'


        People were jumping up during the lecture saying, 'I have some of these 

        symptoms..


        Is it reversible?' Yes!  Yes!  Yes!  STOP drinking diet sodas and be alert 

        for Aspartame on food labels!


        Many products are fortified with it!  This is a serious problem.  Dr. Espart 

        (one of my speakers) remarked that so many people seem to be symptomatic for 

        MS and during his recent visit to a hospice; a nurse stated that six of her 

        friends, who were heavy Diet Coke addicts, had all been diagnosed with MS. 

        This is beyond coincidence!


        Diet soda is NOT a diet product!  It is a chemically altered, multiple 

        SODIUM (salt) and ASPARTAME containing product that actually makes you crave 

        carbohydrates.


        It is far more likely to make you GAIN weight!


        These products also contain formaldehyde, which stores in the fat cells, 

        particularly in the hips and thighs.


        Formaldehyde is an absolute toxin and is used primarily to preserve 'tissue 

        specimens.'


        Many products we use every day contain this chemical but we SHOULD NOT store 

        it IN our body!


        Dr. H. J. Roberts stated in his lectures that once free of the  'diet 

        products' and with no significant increase in exercise; his patients lost an 

        average of 19 pounds over a trial period.


        Aspartame is especially dangerous for diabetics. We found that some 

        physicians, who believed that they had a patient with retinopathy, in fact, 

        had symptoms caused by Aspartame. The Aspartame drives the blood sugar out 

        of control. Thus diabetics may suffer acute memory loss due to the fact that 

        aspartic acid and phenylalanine are NEUROTOXIC when taken without the other 

        amino acids necessary for a good balance.


        Treating diabetes is all about BALANCE. Especially with diabetics, the 

        Aspartame passes the blood/brain barrier and it then deteriorates the 

        neurons of the brain; causing various levels of brain damage, Seizures, 

        Depression, Manic depression, Panic attacks, Uncontrollable anger and rage.


        Consumption of Aspartame causes these same symptoms in non-diabetics as 

        well.  Documentation and observation also reveal that thousands of children 

        diagnosed with ADD and ADHD have had complete turnarounds in their behavior 

        when these chemicals have been removed from their diet.


        So called 'behavior modification prescription drugs' (Ritalin and others) 

        are no longer needed.  Truth be told, they were never NEEDED in the first 

        place!


        Most of these children were being 'poisoned' on a daily basis with the very 

        foods that were 'better for them than sugar.'


        It is also suspected that the Aspartame in thousands of pallets of diet Coke 

        and    diet Pepsi consumed by men and women fighting in the Gulf War, may be 

        partially  to blame for the well known Gulf War Syndrome.


        Dr. Roberts warns that it can cause birth defects, i.e., mental retardation, 

        if taken at the time of conception and during early pregnancy.  Children are 

        especially at risk for neurological disorders and should NEVER be given 

        artificial sweeteners.


        There are many different case histories to relate of children suffering 

        grand mal seizures and other neurological disturbances talking about a 

        plague of neurological diseases directly caused by the use of this deadly 

        poison.'


        Herein lies the problem: There were Congressional Hearings when Aspartame 

        was included in 100 different products and strong objection was made 

        concerning its use. Since this initial hearing, there have been two 

        subsequent hearings, and still nothing has been done.  The drug and chemical 

        lobbies have very deep pockets.


        Sadly, MONSANTO'S patent on Aspartame has EXPIRED!  There are now over 5,000 

        products on the market that contain this deadly chemical and there will be 

        thousands more introduced..  Everybody wants a 'piece of the Aspartame pie.'


        I assure you that MONSANTO, the creator of Aspartame, knows how deadly it 

        is..


        And isn't it ironic that MONSANTO funds, among others, the American Diabetes 

        Association, the American Dietetic Association and the Conference of the 

        American College of Physicians?


        This has been recently exposed in the New York Times.  These [organizations] 

        cannot criticize any additives or convey their link to MONSANTO because they 

        take money from the food industry and are required to endorse their 

        products.


        Senator Howard Metzenbaum wrote and presented a bill that would require 

        label warnings on products containing Aspartame, especially regarding 

        pregnant women, children and infants.


        The bill would also institute independent studies on the known dangers and 

        the problems existing in the general population regarding seizures, changes 

        in brain chemistry, neurological changes and behavioral symptoms.


        The bill was killed. It is known that the powerful drug and chemical lobbies 

        are responsible for this, letting loose the hounds of disease and death on 

        an unsuspecting and uninformed public. Well, you're informed now!


        YOU HAVE A RIGHT TO KNOW!


        Please print this out and/or e-mail To your family And friends.


        They too have a right to know!
