Aspartame (NutraSweet, Equal, etc.)
is an addictive neurotoxin that has the FDA’s
blessing. Aspartame has 3 components: Aspartic Acid
– continuously stimulates neurons in the brain; a
methyl group that converts to methanol (wood
alcohol) and formaldehyde and formic acid (the sting
in ants); phenylalanine - a neurotoxin that lowers
the seizure threshold and depletes serotonin,
creating behavior problems and sometimes psychosis.

Serotonin is a naturally produced
brain chemical that is necessary for
healthy functioning and emotional
well-being. We know that levels of
serotonin that are too low correlate with depression.
When interviewing students on the
circumstances surrounding their
depressive symptoms, I inquire about the
ingestion of sugar-free gum and diet
sodas, both of which contain aspartame.
L-Tyrozine is a natural amino acid that
will help increase your natural
serotonin levels. Very inexpensive at

25 years ago the FDA knew aspartame was
responsible for leukemia, lymphoma, kidney cancer
and cancer of the peripheral nerves. The FDA
rejected its approval for 16 years, but suddenly, in
1981, it was approved.
Searle held the patent on
Aspartame and Donald Rumsfeld was CEO at the time.
Ronald Reagan’s transition team, which included
“Donny”, managed to get the FDA director replaced
with a more “friendly” successor.
Aspartame reacts with drugs and vaccines. The 007
status (right to kill) legislation was passed to
excuse drug makers from responsibility if things
don’t go right.
For more information “Sweet Misery; A Poisoned
World” is available on DVD at Amazon.com and others.

Before you run off to get your next prescription
drug, why not try cutting the aspartame out of your
diet. Beware though... If you have been using
aspartame for any length of time, you are addicted.
You will experience withdrawal symptoms while you
detox.
While using aspartame even one more time could be
fatal to you, if you are experiencing heavy
withdrawal symptoms and think you can't do it, try
weaning yourself gently off this toxic drug. Get
some Stevia, a natural herbal sweetener with No side
effects, and use half aspartame and half stevia.
Gradually use less and less aspartame until you are
drug free.
| * Note:
Stevia is available in many grocery stores,
all health food stores and many herbal sites
on the internet. Stevia is also safe for
diabetics. We will try to find some good
stevia resources for you. We wanted to get
this information out to you before you die
from aspartame poisoning. |
What products contain aspartame?
Most diet soft drinks - sugar free gum -
nutrasweet - equal - many 'diet foods' (Pssst...
It's not a diet food if one of the main ingredients
will make you excessively hungry and gain weight) -
Almost anything that says 'sugar-free'. Please read
your labels. Avoid aspartame and enjoy a much
healthier life.
Stevia is the only 'artificial sweetener' that
you can use everyday safely. It's not a true
artificial sweetener in the respect that it is a
totally natural herb. It has absolutely NO side
effects! It is unrefined with no chemical additives.
It is actually a better natural sweetener than
white, refined sugar because it is used in it's
natural form.
Warning... Replacing aspartame with stevia will
cause better health!
It is also a good idea to clear your system
of toxins as soon as possible. Drink
excessive quantities of water and
try a colon cleanse product.
