Aspartame, Brain Cancer & the FDA Approval Process (Sugarfree Light Diet Coke Zero E951)

Tuesday, April 13th, 2010

The approval of the artificial sweetener aspartame (E951) was the most contested in FDA history. The approval was not based on any scientific grounds but was granted due to political and financial pressure.

Aspartame was first ‘discovered’ in 1965 by Searle, a drug company based in Chicago. The FDA finally approved aspartame in 1981, even though scientific research had clearly shown that aspartame caused brain cancer in lab animals.

http://www.naturalnews.com/011804_aspartame_tumors_brain_tumor.html

The tests that Searle used to determine the so-called safety of aspartame were severely flawed. Searle used unscientific lab practices, falsified data and withheld crucial information during the FDA approval process.

Because aspartame caused brain tumors in laboratory animals, it poses a real cancer risk to humans as well. Cancer is increasing in western countries and will soon be the leading cause of death.

Aspartame (E951) is now being used in over 6000 products and millions of people worldwide use the sweetener on a daily basis. In addition to causing cancer, aspartame also causes many other health problems including epilepsy, migraines, diabetes, obesity, brain disorders, ADHD, ADD, MS, etc.

The US Department of Health has recorded 92 (!) symptoms following complaints about aspartame. In fact, over 80% of all complaints filed with FDA are aspartame related!

Some of the brand names for aspartame:
AminoSweet, NutraSweet, Equal, NatraTaste, Canderel, Spoonful, Equal-Measure, etc.

Aspartame is used in any of the following products:
Sugarfree, Light, Diet, Zero (Coke, Sprite & Fanta), Coke 007, Pepsi Max, Crystal Clear, Low-Calorie, Crystal Light, No Sugar Added, Smint, Stimorol Ice, Stimorol Fusion, Freedent, Mentos, Sportlife, etc.

Aspartame breaks down into three components:

1. Methanol.
This is poisonous alcohol. In the body, methanol breaks down into formaldehyde, which is a poison.

2. Phenylalanine.
This decreases the amount serotonin in your brain, which leads to mood swings (depressions) and an increased appetite! That is why aspartame is one of the main causes for the current obesity epidemic.

3. Aspartic acid.
This is a neurological toxin comparable to MSG.

Do yourself a big favor and remove this poisonous chemical out of your diet for 60 days and discover how your health will improve dramatically!

Lowering the Risk Factors of Obesity, Diabetes, and Heart Disease

Sunday, May 10th, 2009
by Dr. Jason Fowler

Reducing the Risk Factors

Diabetes is a serious health problem. In adults, diabetes is often a result of long-term nutritional neglect and abuse.

Most of us don’t eat breakfast. Our fuel supply is very low, and we wind up running on fumes. We grab a high-calorie muffin or a candy bar later in the morning when we’re really, really hungry. What we don’t know is that this snack causes insulin to dump out of the pancreas into the bloodstream, as the body attempts to process the surge in blood glucose from the snack we just ate.

Who Created The Cabbage Soup Diet

Saturday, February 14th, 2009
by Ron C George

There’s a very basic description for the cabbage soup diet CRAPOLA. Anything else is just a lot of speculation and innuendos. But in case you’re curious here is additional information.

The origins of the cabbage soup diet are indefinable. It first appeared in the initial 1980s, faxed from person to person like a chain letter. There were many names for the diet, at times a well-known institution such as St. Jude’s diet. Any suggested relationship to these institutions is untruthful.

Most individuals on the cabbage soup diet drink nothing but water or unsweetened fruit juice. A general outline of the diet is something like this.
