aspartame good for you?

The shocking truth of how a political "favor" got the government to approve this poison --
and why aspartame is making us sicker and fatter
than good old sugar ever could!


THE SWEETEST SCANDAL

in the history of American health!
Did you know the FDA refused to approve this best-selling sweetener for 16 years...?

Until one powerful politician called in a favor which finally got it legalized...?

And now it's been linked to brain cancer, memory loss, impaired vision, hearing loss, joint pain, asthma, coma, seizures...?

See below, save your life and learn the real facts about...
My Dear Incredulous Friend:Ever wonder what our former Secretary of Defense did before he got into politics?

Well years ago, he was the fearless leader of a company called GD Searle Corp. that developed a "miracle sweetener" called aspartame. (Yes, the very same stuff contained in that those that little blueblue packet.)

For years, this company tried in vain to get aspartame approved. But no one wanted to go near the stuff! The FDA refused to approve it for 16 years. In fact, according to a report I recently uncovered, the late Dr. M. Adrian Gross, a former senior FDA toxicologist, stated in his testimony before Congress:

"Beyond a shadow of a doubt, aspartame triggers brain tumors"and, "therefore, by allowing aspartame to be placed on the market the FDA has violated the Delaney Amendment, which forbids putting anything in food that is know to cause cancer...And if the FDA itself elects to violates its own the law, who is left to protect the health of the public?"
But wait, it gets worse...

In the early '80s, "Rummy the Magnificent" moved into the political arena. And one of the first moves he made was to appoint a new FDA commissioner. And guess what he did? In 1981, the new appointee approved aspartame for the good old boys back at GD Searle...despite the clinically proven dangers.

Before long, aspartame was everywhere, from soda to salad dressing! Now let's look at what it's "contributed" to America's health...

92 reasons why aspartame makes sugar look like a "good guy"...
For starters, medical authorities estimate that aspartame has brought more complaints to the FDA than any other additive. In fact, it's responsible for as many as 75 percent of such complaints to that agency. And, after receiving some 10,000 consumer complaints, the FDA compiled a list of 92 symptoms linked to aspartame -- including death.

Headaches, memory loss, seizures, vision loss, coma, and cancer. It also appears to worsen or mimic the symptoms of such conditions as fibromyalgia, MS, lupus, ADD, diabetes, Alzheimer's, chronic fatigue, and depression...

Why so many? It could be because aspartame attacks your body at the cellular level so it can negate all kinds of medications Americans take, including antidepressants, Coumadin, cardiac drugs, hormones, insulin, vaccines, and many others.

It is a deadly neurotoxic drug masquerading as a harmless additive.

And to add insult to injury... Aspartame could makes you hungrier and fatter!

One medical investigator, Dr. H. J. Roberts, even concludes that aspartame has caused our obesity epidemic. He gives evidence that this "guilt-free" sweetener secretly makes you crave carbohydrates which, of course, make you gain weight.
How? Possibly it may trigger or over stimulate the stomach's production of ghrelin, also known as the "hunger hormone." If this hypothesis turns out to be correct, it will help to explain why all those "diet" sodas have never been much help in weight reduction. (In fact, just the opposite!)
So why is the media mum?

Simple. Because professional organizations and their publications have all been bought off.

By who? The food giants. They all use this inexpensive imposter in huge quantities for their colas, desserts, candies, and other junk foods. And they're the ones who have financed a raft of studies "proving" the safety of aspartame.

So what's safe and actually TASTES GOOD?

I can hear you asking: "Ok Dr. Douglass, so what can I sprinkle into my coffee?"

Let's run through the usual suspects then I'll tell you what I've been using...

SUGAR: A spoonful once in a while is fine, but in time, too much sugar can lead to diabetes, which will lead to heart disease, renal disease, peripheral vascular disease, diabetic retinitis (blindness), diabetic peripheral neuropathy and the list goes on and on. (Even so, next to aspartame, sugar looks almost attractive!)

SUCRALOSE: A very dangerous new chemical -- because in order to make sucralose, chlorine is added to sugar! Ever spilled chlorine bleach on your skin? No wonder that research by the Sucralose Toxicity Information Center showed that years of sucralose use can lead to serious compromise of the immune system and neurological disorders.

SACCHARINE: Yuck. Despite those famous animal studies, I actually don't count saccharine as much of a cancer threat to humans. But face it, saccharine tastes like the chemical experiment it is. Enough said.

STEVIA: Yes, it's natural. Yes, it's safe. But no, it tastes nothing like sugar. Okay for some, but not in my coffee!
XYLITOL: Almost gets a perfect score. Natural, tastes like sugar, good for your teeth, doesn't spike blood sugar. On the down side, it gives some folks the trots.

AND THE WINNER IS:
You've probably never heard of it. It's called erythritol. And here's the best news: erythritol is natural, virtually calorie-free, tastes like sugar, doesn't affect blood sugar or insulin levels, reduces dental plaque -- and unlike xylitol, has no laxative side-effects. Available as Smart Sweet, it gets the Dr. Douglass nod!

The food giants would certainly like to keep these discoveries hush-hush. But now that you know the facts, you can kiss those killer awful blueblue packets good-bye forever. And satisfy that sweet tooth with a yummy, natural, safe alternative.
So who am I to be swinging this ax?

I'm William Campbell Douglass, M.D.

I've been called ?the conscience of modern medicine,? and the National Health Federation voted me ?Doctor of the Year.?
But I've also been labeled a ?maverick,? and several less flattering names too by some of the biggest names in government and the health establishment--but hey, that's part of the territory. And friend, my territory is everywhere...
I've flown with US Navy crews as a Flight Surgeon...
Saved lives as a long-time emergency physician...
Battled malaria in bullet-torn regions of Central America...
Fought deadly epidemics at my own health clinic in Africa...

Worked alongside doctors at Russia?s renowned Pasteur Institute...

I've even been called before Congress (they never asked me back)...

And if there's one undeniable medical fact I've learned in 40 years of treating patients all over the world, it's that...
 
Thanks for the post Manny.

The problem is there is so much junk floating around on the internet you dont know what is lies.

Its funny the older people i know always send stuff that wont pass the snopes test because in their lives if something was in print it was accepted as truth.

I am sure artificial sweeteners are not good for you, but neither is being obese.

By the way, is splenda one of the bad sweeteners.

Dryers has some no sugar ice cream (coffee and cookies and cream) that is awesome.

wow, gotta get some for the wife, she's diebetic and addicted to sweets..BAD! Thanks Brian
 
xylitol is the best sweetener out there, very safe. I know a few people that have been poisoned by aspartame. Once they stopped drinking, before things got to far out of hand, the symptoms went away. What has been posted here is not bs, contrary to what snopes may say.
