Aspartame Detoxification Program Proposed

Categories

Health

Aspartame is a highly toxic sweetener which unfortunately, through political pressures overriding the warnings of the FDA's own scientists, has obtained approval from the FDA and consequently from health authorities world wide. It is being sold as a low calorie way to get that sweet taste, and is being recommended for diabetics and anyone who would like to avoid sugar.

Thousands of products, including sports drinks and the ubiquitous "light" soft drinks as well as all kinds of bakery goods for those who want to avoid sugar, contain the poison. Consequently, we are seeing an epidemic of ill health of truly monstrous proportions. You think SARS is bad? AIDS? Look at the side effects caused by Aspartame! Ask around your friends and neighburs, if they have any of the symptoms. Chances are they are on Aspartame.

Janet Starr Hull, Ph.D. describes the common symptoms and recommends a ten-step Aspartame Detoxification Program:

Aspartame Side Effects

by Janet Starr Hull, Ph.D., CN

There are over 92 different health side effects associated with aspartame consumption. It seems surreal, but true. How can one chemical create such chaos?

Aspartame dissolves into solution and can therefore travel throughout the body and deposit within any tissue. The body digests aspartame unlike saccharin, which does not break down within humans.

The multitude of aspartame side effects are indicative of our genetic individuality and physical weaknesses. It is important to put two and two together, nonetheless, and identify which side effects aspartame is creating within you.

Aspartame Side Effects

The components of aspartame can lead to a number of health problems, as you have read. Side effects can occur gradually, can be immediate, or can be acute reactions. According to Lendon Smith, M.D. there is an enormous population suffering from side effects associated with aspartame, yet they have no idea why drugs, supplements and herbs don't relieve their symptoms. Then, there are users who don't 'appear' to suffer immediate reactions at all. Even these individuals are susceptible to the long-term damage caused by excitatory amino acids, phenylalanine, methanol, and DKP.

Adverse reactions and side effects of aspartame include:

Eye

- blindness in one or both eyes

- decreased vision and/or other eye problems such as: blurring, bright flashes, squiggly lines, tunnel vision, decreased night vision

Additional Symptoms of Aspartame Toxicity include the most critical symptoms of all

Aspartame may trigger, mimic, or cause the following illnesses:

- Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

- Epstein-Barr

- Post-Polio Syndrome

- Lyme Disease

- Grave's Disease

- Meniere's Disease

- Alzheimer's Disease

- ALS

- Epilepsy

- Multiple Sclerosis (MS)

- EMS

- Hypothyroidism

- Mercury sensitivity from Amalgam fillings

- Fibromyalgia

- Lupus

- non-Hodgkins Lymphoma

- Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD)

These are not allergies or sensitivities, but diseases and disease syndromes.
Aspartame poisoning is commonly misdiagnosed because aspartame symptoms mock textbook 'disease' symptoms, such as Grave's Disease.

Aspartame changes the ratio of amino acids in the blood, blocking or lowering the levels of serotonin, tyrosine, dopamine, norepinephrine, and adrenaline. 

Therefore, it is typical that aspartame symptoms cannot be detected in lab tests and on x-rays. Textbook disorders and diseases may actually be a toxic load as a result of aspartame poisoning.

Ever gone to the doctor with real, physical symptoms, but he/she can't find the cause? Well, it's probably your diet, your environment, or both.

Aspartame is the common denominator for over 92 different health symptoms at the root of modern disease. The Aspartame Detoxification Program demonstrates the most effective way to reverse disease symptoms is removing the underlying cause - aspartame.

I counsel aspartame victims worldwide and have witnessed nine out of 10 clients restore their health by following the Aspartame Detoxification Program.
 
Begin with detoxifying your body of all residual chemical toxins from aspartame's chemical make up of phenylalanine, aspartic acid and methanol and their toxic by-products, and see if any adverse health symptoms remain. Try the Aspartame Detoxification Program, and within 30 days your symptoms should disappear.

Steps:

Remove all sugar-free products with aspartame from your diet.

Learn to 'read' your body. Begin recording any health changes.

Get a hair analysis.

I designed this Ten Step Program to help protect your health and the health of those you love from being seduced by the sugar-free diet craze. Wishing you good health.

Register a complaint with the EU Health Commission, FDA, the FAA, the NutraSweet Company about aspartame poisoning.

Return all food products with aspartame, opened or unopened, to your grocer. 

Tell him/her the products make you sick. The grocer can return them to the manufacturer for a store refund. The manufacturer should get the message. So, will the grocer.
