Sugarplums Without Aspartame Safer : IMC Print

SUGARPLUMS WITHOUT ASPARTAME ARE SAFER TREATS

Its the sugarplum time of year, with myriad Candies and Sweets in bright enticing colors and flavors. Therein lies the hazard, for our Fatal Drugs Allowed folks, the FDA, has blessed several poisons as sugar substitutes for holiday confections. As the
Big Bad Wolf would say, The better to murder you with, my Dear.

Under labels as Sugar Free, Low Cal, and Diet! thousands of tons of deadly aspartame [NutraSweet/Equal], Neotame and Splenda will be substituted for sugar. All in the name of good health, of course. The chemicals are a boon to candy & confection makers
because:

They’re a lot cheaper to use than sugar.
Spoilage is lower because bacteria wont eat them,
They tend to be addictive and increase consumption
Sugarless is magic for media manipulation!

Before you load a shopping cart with these kid killers you should know what impartial scientific investigation by renowned researchers reveals:

ASPARTAME: To a Senate hearing Dr. Louis Elsas, Professor of Pediatrics [Genetics] at Emory University, testified: I have spent 25 years in biomedical sciences trying to prevent birth defects caused by excess phenylalanine. And therein lies my basic concern, that
aspartame is in fact a well known neurotoxin and teratogen [causes birth defects] which,
in some as yet undefined dose, will both reversibly in the adult and irreversibly in the developing child or fetal brain, produce adverse effects. Testimony to the Labor & Human Resources Committee, 11/3/87

Dr Miguel Baret of the Dominican Republic removed cows milk from 360 childrens diets as it has a specific protein that can cause diabetes, especially in children. Instead they drank juice laced with aspartame, and most developed abnormal restlessness, lack of
concentration, irritability and depression. When removed: The results were astonishing.
Their symptoms disappeared in 4-6 days in ALL of them!

Diabetic specialist H J Roberts MD, FACP has a data base of 1,300 victims. In his 1,038 page Aspartame Disease, An Ignored Epidemic are hundreds of case histories. He says If a child is diabetic aspartame will drive blood sugar out of control, destroy the optic nerves and cause diabetic convulsions. He was named The Best Doctor in the United States by a doctors’ magazine. http://www.sunsentpress.com

The Senate Congressional Record printed a long list of objections by the National Soft Drink Association against aspartame approval for soft drinks which said: Especially worrisome are reactions involving the brain, including seizures, incapacitating headaches,
dizziness, behavioral changes and depression there is concern, too , over the possibility
that in some consumers, aspartame may cause subtle disruptions in the balance of brain chemicals that influence mood, alertness and hunger. [May 7, 1985 page S5493]

A three year study of aspartame carcinogenicity by the European Foundation for Oncology was released July 14, 05 which concluded: aspartame is capable of inducing lymphomas and leukemias in female rats. 1,800 rats were observed until they died. The report identified the chemical as a multi-potential carcinogen. Neurosurgeon Russell Blaylock, MD, one of the world's leading authorities on aspartame neurotoxicity, extensively reviewed the Soffritti report. "This study should terrify mothers and all those consuming aspartame sweetened products. This was a carefully done study which clearly demonstrated a
statistically significant increase in several types of lymphomas and leukemias in rats. Both of these malignancies have increased significantly since the widespread use of aspartame." Dr. Blaylock is author of Excitotoxins: The Taste That Kills, http://www.russellblaylockmd.com

Ralph Walton, M.D., Psychiatrist, reports: "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 neurotransmitter precursors could alter indoleamine/catecholamine balance, and thus have a profound effect on mood and cognition - depressed mood,
anxiety, dizziness, panic attacks, nausea, irritability, impairment of memory and concentration."

NEOTAME The results are in, aspartame is poison. Monsantos patent on
the product expired several years ago, so they introduced a new model, just as toxic, don't be fooled. SPLENDA Wonderful if you don't care about staying healthy and want to slowly poison your kids. This venom is simply chlorinated sugar that destroys the immune
system among other blessings. Why try a new way to die?

80% of FDA consumer complaints on food additives were about aspartame until they slammed the complaint window. Their last official report tallied more than 10,000 volunteered complaints from American consumers and a list of 92 symptoms including four types of seizures, blindness, sexual dysfunction and death. A parade of FDA officials including four Commissioners hired into the aspartame business which always has a job for an FDA buddy!

Jack Samuels, President, Truth in Labeling Campaign has sincere concerns: "The problem with MSG in candy is that it is usually hidden in an ingredient that the general public does not recognize as MSG. Parents should be aware that much candy distributed to children contains aspartame and one or more sources of MSG. Aspartame and MSG are known neurotoxins that cause adverse reactions in children from mild and transitory
to debilitating, life threatening and fatal. Under FDA regulations, aspartame should be labeled as an ingredient on all candies. For a list of the most common labeled ingredients that contain MSG, go to http://www.truthinlabeling.org/hiddensources.html ."

FDA is funded by the business they regulate. They’re actually paid to process and approve applications. So whom do you think FDA works for, you or the money? Think of FDA as Big Pharmas Branch Office in Washington. FDA approved VIOXX, then it killed 55,000! Can you believe 55,000 heart attacks and sudden occurred before our overpaid experts figured out why? The problem is FDA embarrassment. FDA is humiliated when they have to admit they rubber-stamped another poison, so everybody hides while the bodies
pile up!

Massacres are remembered with a cry: Remember the Alamo! Remember the Maine! Remember Corrigador! When next you shop, remember VIOXX, and ditch the artificial sweeteners. Let your sugarplums be sugared. Just don’t eat the whole box.

This year is more important than others because the FDA has avidly approved even more poisons for manufacturers to pour into our food, and this chemical feast is a plague international, for whatever FDA blesses becomes that old time religion for other nations who assume it must be harmless. In case there’s any hesitancy overseas you can be sure Big Pharma is right there with a fat checkbook to lubricate the process. The cumulative effects destroy the brains and bodies of children world wide. Incredible, heinous, savage,
vicious mindless cruelty.

Greedy Big Pharma is arrogance personified. Like high priestly wizards they expect
government regulators will kowtow in humble submission to their supreme wisdom.
Are they not the embodiment of Science? Do they not bring blizzards of phony
research records assuring the beneficence of VIOXX/aspartame/whatever? And are there not golden employment opportunities for those who serve them well?

Once there was a Delaney Amendment that forbid adding carcinogens to food.
Honest FDA toxicologist Dr. Adrian Gross testified to Congress that aspartame
violated this law because “without a shadow of a doubt” it produces cancer. So what do you do when you break a law you don’t like? Repeal it! And they did!

FDA allows for Citizens Petitions, and the statute requires them to answer. Almost four years ago I petitioned them to ban aspartame and furnished heavy documentation.
FDA’s letter advised me that they have other matters to tend to of higher priority. Translation: the law only works against those helping people with natural cures. We’re above the law, so Big P gets a free pass with their bottomless bank account;

A new example of FDA’s blatant disregard for the Americans and contempt for consumers is a proposed standard for ice cream that will permit imported milk from sheep, goats, yaks, water buffalo, etc to replace cow’s milk in ice cream, with only a side-panel: “Made with _____ milk.” Call it "mystery milk." Sharp-eyed ingredient readers will know what they’re eating; but as for the rest of us: what you don't know may not hurt you … this time. If you order it in a restaurant no one will know. FDA doesn't give a flip what you eat, as long as its cheaper to make or full of chemicals.

What regulation will FDA next change to hide toxins and destroy us? How about no
regulation at all? To be marketed the first half of 2006 is SENOMYX, a biotech food
enhancer. It will be unlabeled and not require FDA approval. Says Jack Samuels:
“I'm scared to death of this Senomyx product. It apparently uses the same neurologic
pathways as does MSG. My logic tells me that it may very well cause reactions similar
to MSG, but only time will tell. The MSG replacer is to be the company's first product."
A witches brew!

Today all eyes are on New Mexico where Citizen Stephen Fox has successfully petitioned the New Mexico Environmental Improvement Board to hold a hearing on banning aspartame because it violates state and federal adulteration statutes. Viva New Mexico! The hearing is scheduled for five days in July 2006. http://www.wnho.net/viva_new_mexico.htm
