Jai Guru Deva Datta!! - Caution against Artificial Sweeteners - MUST READ !!!

[Guest guest]

This article has been circulating since 1995 and it may be a hoax. ( My

opinion! You are free to form yours.)

 

 Any substance naturally occuring or produced in the lab can be harmful to the

human body especially in large amounts. Best example is ordinary sugar from

sugar cane which although is naturally occurring,  is a poison to diabetics and

the recent articles show that if taken in large quantities by non diabetics can

produce insulin resistance which can lead to diabetes.

 

Aspartame will not be an exception to the rule. We have to use common sense and

limit the quantity. ( I have seen some of my friends drinking 6 to 12 cans of

diet pepsi a day with no symptoms of Multiple sclerosis. I myself used to

drink a lot of diet coke  for over 2 years. I don't drink it now because my

taste has changed to diet lemonade which contains aspertame) 

 

I usually type text from chain letters, emails and other information forwarded

to me in the Google search box and always get valuable information.

Please do not consider this information as an endorsement for drinks containing

aspertame. Always use your judgement.

Jai Guru Datta!!!

 

Dear Datta Devotees,

 

It may be true that a couple of you do consume

ASPARTAME in the FOrm of " SUGAR Free " , " Nutra

Sweet " , " Spoonful " , " Equal " etc.

& Diet Soda's of different brands. I certainly am

not knowledgable enough to warn anybody against consuming

this chemical, but this article made me feel that i must

share the information with my co-devotees of Shri Swamiji

and Lord Datta.

 

 

Please go through the article and take necessary

precautions.

 

Please pardon, if anyone feels this mail as out of context.

 

Take Care.

May  Appaji Bless us all with Good Health,

 

Sri Guru Deva Datta!!

Pl. read and forward to your friends...especiall y who

have diet soda....

 

Sailaja

 

In

October of 2001, my sister started getting very sick. She

had stomach spasms and she was having a hard time getting

around.

 

Walking

was a major chore.  It

took everything she had just to get out of bed; she was in

so much pain.

 

 

 

By

March 2002, she had undergone several tissue and muscle

biopsies and was on 24 various prescription medications. The

doctors could not determine what was wrong with

her.  She

was in so much pain, and so sick she just knew she was

dying.

She

put her house, bank accounts, life insurance, etc., in her

oldest daughter's name, and made sure that her younger

children were to be taken care of.

 

She

also wanted her last hooray, so she planned a trip to

Florida (basically in a wheelchair) for March

22nd.

 

On

March 19 I called her to ask how her most recent tests went,

and she said they didn't find anything on the test, but

they believe she had MS.  I

recalled an article a friend of mine e-mailed to me and I

asked my sister  if

she drank diet soda?

 

She

told me that  she

did.

As a matter of fact, she was getting ready to crack one open

that moment.

 

 

I

told her not to open it, and to  stop

drinking the diet soda!  I

e-mailed her article my friend, a lawyer, had

sent.  

 

My sister called me within 32 hours after our phone

conversation and told me she had stopped drinking the diet

soda AND she could walk!

 

The

muscle spasms went away. She said she didn't feel 100%

but, she sure felt a lot better..

 

She

told me she was going to her doctor with this article and

would call me when she got home.

 

 

Well,

she called me, and said her doctor was

amazed!  He

is going to call all of his MS patients to find out if they

consumed artificial sweeteners of any

kind.

 

 

 

In

a nutshell,  she

was being poisoned by the Aspartame in the diet

soda...and

literally dying a slow and miserable

death.

 

When

she got to Florida March 22, all she had to take was one

pill, and that was a pill for the Aspartame

poisoning!  She

is well on her way to a complete recovery. And she is

walking!  No

wheelchair!  This

article saved her life.

 

If

it says  'SUGAR

FREE'  on

the label;  DO

NOT EVEN THINK ABOUT IT! I have spent several days lecturing

at the WORLD ENVIRONMENTAL CONFERENCE

on  'ASPARTAME,'

marketed as  'Nutra Sweet,'  'Equal,' and

'Spoonful.'

 

In

the keynote address by the EPA, it was announced that in the

United States in 2001 there is an epidemic of multiple

sclerosis and systemic lupus. It was difficult to determine

exactly what toxin was causing this to be

rampant.  I

stood up and said that I was there to lecture on exactly

that subject.

 

I

will explain why Aspartame is so

dangerous:  When

the  temperature  of

this  sweetener  exceeds

86 degrees F,

the  wood

alcohol in ASPARTAME converts to

formaldehyde  and  then

to formic acid,  which

in turn  causes

metabolic acidosis.  Formic

acid is the poison found in the sting of fire

ants.

 

The

methanol toxicity mimics, among other conditions, multiple

sclerosis and systemic lupus.  Many people were being

diagnosed in error.

 

Although

multiple sclerosis is not a death sentence, Methanol

toxicity is!

 

Systemic

lupus  has

become almost as  rampant  as  multiple

sclerosis,

especially  with  Diet

Coke and Diet Pepsi drinkers.

 

The  victim  usually  does

not know  that

the  Aspartame  is

the  culprit.  He

or she continues its use; irritating the lupus to such

a  degree

that it may  become

a life-threatening condition.

 

We

have seen patients with systemic lupus become asymptotic,

once taken off diet sodas.

 

In

cases of those diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, most of

the symptoms disappear. We've seen many cases where

vision loss returned and hearing loss improved

markedly.

This

also applies to cases of tinnitus and

fibromyalgia.

 

During

a lecture, I said,  'If

you are using ASPARTAME (Nutra

Sweet, Equal, Spoonful, etc)

and you suffer from fibromyalgia symptoms, spasms, shooting,

pains, numbness in your legs,  Cramps,

Vertigo,  Dizziness,  Headaches,

Tinnitus, Joint pain,  Unexplainable

depression, anxiety attacks, slurred speech, blurred vision,

or memory loss you probably have ASPARTAME

poisoning!'

 

People

were jumping up during the lecture

saying,  'I have some of these symptoms.  Is

it reversible?'

 

Yes!  Yes!  Yes!

STOP drinking diet

sodas  and be alert for Aspartame

on food labels!  Many

products are fortified with it!

 

 

 

This is a serious problem.

 

Dr.

Espart (one of my speakers) remarked that so many people

seem to be symptomatic for MS and during his recent visit to

a hospice; a nurse stated that six of her friends, who were

heavy  Diet

Coke  addicts,

had all been diagnosed with MS. This is beyond

coincidence!

 

Diet

soda is  NOT  a

diet product! It is a chemically altered, multiple SODIUM

(salt) and ASPARTAME containing product that actually makes

you crave carbohydrates. It is far more likely to make you

GAIN weight!

 

These

products also contain formaldehyde, which stores in the fat

cells, particularly in the hips and thighs. Formaldehyde is

an absolute toxin and is used primarily to preserve

'tissue specimens.'

 

Many

products we use every day contain this chemical but

we  SHOULD

NOT  store

it IN our body!

 

Dr.

H. J. Roberts stated in his lectures that once free of

the  'diet

products' and with no significant

increase in exercise; his patients lost an average of 19

pounds over a trial period.

 

Aspartame

is especially dangerous for diabetics.

 

 

We

found that some physicians, who believed that they had a

patient with retinopathy, in fact, had symptoms caused by

Aspartame.  The

Aspartame drives the blood sugar out of

control.

 

Thus

diabetics may suffer acute memory loss due to the fact that

aspartic acid and phenylalanine

are  NEUROTOXIC  when

taken without the other amino acids necessary for a good

balance.

Treating

diabetes is all about BALANCE.  Especially

with diabetics, the Aspartame passes the blood/brain barrier

and it then deteriorates the neurons of the brain; causing

various levels of brain damage,  Seizures,  Depression,  Manic

depression, Panic attacks,  Uncontrollable

anger and rage.

 

Consumption

of Aspartame causes these same symptoms in non-diabetics as

well.

 

Documentation

and observation also reveal that thousands of children

diagnosed with ADD and ADHD have had complete turnarounds in

their behavior when these chemicals have been removed from

their diet.

 

So

called 'behavior modification prescription drugs'

(Ritalin and others) are no longer

needed.  Truth

be told, they were never NEEDED in the first

place!

 

Most

of these children were being 'poisoned' on a daily

basis with the very foods that were 'better for them

than sugar.'

It

is also suspected that the Aspartame in thousands of pallets

of  Diet

Coke and Diet Pepsi  consumed

by men and women fighting in the Gulf War, may be partially

to blame for the well-known Gulf War

Syndrome..

 

Dr. Roberts warns that it can  cause

birth defects, i.e. mental retardation, if taken at the time

of conception and during early pregnancy.

 

Children are especially at risk for neurological disorders and should

NEVER be given artificial sweeteners.

 

There are many different case histories to relate of children

suffering grand mal seizures and other neurological

disturbances talking about a plague of neurological diseases

directly caused by the use of this deadly

poison.'

 

 

Herein lies the problem:  There

were Congressional Hearings when Aspartame was included in

100 different products and strong objection was made

concerning its use. Since this initial hearing, there have

been two subsequent hearings, and still nothing has been

done.  The

drug and chemical lobbies have very deep

pockets.

Sadly,

MONSANTO'S patent on Aspartame has

EXPIRED!  There

are now over 5,000 products on the market that contain this

deadly chemical and there will be thousands more introduced.

Everybody wants a 'piece of the Aspartame

pie.'

 

I

assure you that  MONSANTO, the creator

of Aspartame, knows how deadly it is.

 

 

And

isn't it ironic that MONSANTO funds, among others, the

American Diabetes Association, the American Dietetic

Association and the Conference of the American College of

Physicians?

 

This

has been recently exposed in the New York

Times.

These

[organizations] cannot criticize any additives or convey

their link to MONSANTO because they take money from the food

industry and are required to endorse their

products.

 

Senator

Howard Metzenbaum wrote and presented a bill that would

require label warnings on products containing Aspartame,

especially regarding pregnant women, children and

infants.

 

The

bill would also institute independent studies on the known

dangers and the problems existing in the general population

regarding seizures, changes in brain chemistry, neurological

changes and behavioral symptoms.

 

The bill was killed.

 

It

is known that the powerful drug and chemical lobbies are

responsible for this, letting loose the hounds of disease

and death on an unsuspecting and uninformed public. Well,

you're informed now!

 

YOU

HAVE A R IGHT TO KNOW!
