Neotame: A poison even more potent than Aspartame that will soon be approved by

the FDA unless massive public protest is unleashed

 

 

Open Letter to FDA Commissioner Jane Henney, M.D., (fax 301-827-2410)

on Neotame: Written comments deadline, April 10, l999 (A more potent Aspartame)

Open Letter to Dr. Jane Henney, FDA Commissioner

 

Dear Dr. Henney: As Founder of Mission Possible International and on behalf of

the Mission Possible operations in the United State and other countries, I ask

that you deny for approval, Neotame. We are a worldwide volunteer force warning

the consumer public in 100 countries of the world off the deadly toxin,

aspartame, marketed as NutraSweet, Equal, Spoonful, etc. Neotame is nothing more

than a more potent aspartame, and H. J. Roberts, M.D., has declared Aspartame

Disease to be a world epidemic and is in the process of publishing a medical

text on the world plague. His material was distributed at the First

International Conference on Emerging Diseases in Atlanta to doctors and

scientists in 91 countries of the world.

 

Monsanto Communications Director Nancy Nevin said of neotame: " Compositionally

it begins with ASPARTAME, but a simple enhancement to the dipeptide base of

aspartame uniquely and marketedly changes its sweetness. It is 40 times sweeter

than ASPARTAME, "

 

The formulation has been investigated by many physicians. Dr. Roberts said on

3/3/98 to Dockets Management of the Neotame petition: " The timing and

self-serving corporate interests of this petition are suggested by the fact that

the patent on aspartame expired several years ago. " He also said " The

fundamental issue is that Neotame, a synthetic variation of aspartame, requires

extensive evaluation before the FDA should accept a superficial opinion about

its purported safety based largely on limited short-term data involving

potentially flawed protocols that were almost totally funded by corporate

contracts. "

 

The world's health is hostage to the covert, devious cynical sellout of public

interests to corporate gold. On another issue, Phil Angell, Monsanto's director

of corporate communications, told the New York Times: " Monsanto should not have

to vouchsafe the safety of biotech food. Our interest is in selling as much of

it as possible. Assuring its safety is the FDA's job. "

 

So who would take the blame for Neotame approval? You would, Dr. Henney!! You

are an oncologist and according to the FDA's own audit on aspartame, the

Bressler Report, on www.dorway.com, aspartame triggered brain tumors, mammary

tumors, pancreatic tumors, ovarian tumors, pituitary adenomas, uterine tumors,

etc. A senior FDA toxicologist, the late Dr. Adrian Gross, who tried to prevent

the approval of aspartame, told Congress that it violated the Delaney Amendment

because it triggered brain tumors, and that " If the FDA violates its own laws

who is left to protect the public? "

 

(Congressional Record SID835:131 - 8/1/85). Expect a new report soon on

escalating cancer cases linked with aspartame!

 

Famed researcher, Dr. John Olney made world news in l996 on the aspartame/brain

tumor issue as unwarned consumers suffer the same consequences of the rats in

the original studies that approved this toxin. Yet, Dr. Friedman of the FDA went

to the defense of Monsanto on 60 Minutes, and this is after the FDA themselves

kept aspartame off the market for 16 years because aspartame triggered brain

tumors. And secret trade information by the original manufacturer (as posted at

www.DORway.com and released to Congress) admits they have to consider " complete

conversion to DKP " , the brain tumor agent. And yet, they wanted to market it

anyway. Profit was more important than life!! And I weep for every consumer that

dies from these brain tumors, so many leaving young children to grow up without

a parent.

 

Dr. Jeffrey Bada, a peptide chemist, at the University of Califiornia at San

Diego, warned against heating aspartame and the resultant internal rearrangement

of its chemical structure. The FDA themselves said for years you could not heat

aspartame and then in l993 turned right around and approved it for baking. Then

in l996 Dr. David Kessler gave blanket approval for this deadly drug that

interacts with other drugs including monoamine oxidase inhibitors,

alpha-methyldopa and L-dihydroxphenylalanine. Complete irresponsibility! Even in

the secret trade information Herbert Helling said " I think that it's vital to

point out to the Food and Drug people at this meeting that the sweetener is not

suitable for all applications for artificial sweeteners and at best would only

be functional in part of the market " ... Yet, Dr. Kessler saw fit for this drug

to be used like sugar and even for pregnant women to use without a warning. Dr.

Louis Elsas (Emory University Pediatric Professor, genetics) testified before

congress that aspartame is a neurotoxin and teratogen (triggers birth defects).

If the baby even survived, and were PKU, it would be mentally retarded. And

neurosurgeon Dr. Russell Blaylock says if the baby survives you could even see

problems at the age of puberty when more complex parts of the brain are

utilized, and that it also is triggering ADD. Dr. Roberts in his position paper

on pregnancy and aspartame says even a man using aspartame at the time of

conception can cause birth defects in his own child. I told Dr. Friedman at the

time my own daughter got pregnant that the food supply was no longer safe and

that aspartame is now unlabeled in many things because of this blanket approval.

Last week my own daughter lost her baby and was told that 50% of first

pregnancies are now ending in miscarriage. An OB-GYN specialist told me

yesterday this was not normal. Some women have told me they have lost as many as

7 babies on aspartame. I call it first degree murder! Monsanto funded a study on

birth defects which was disastrous, so they withdrew their funding and Dr. Diana

Dow-Edwards had to pay it herself. Then neither Monsanto or the FDA would accept

it. Quite a message to the world - if a researcher will not say it is safe, the

study will not be accepted. Do you want to inflict more of this on the world

with neotame???

 

I called Dr. Bada about neotame and asked him to look over the formula. He told

me they scrambled the formula but yes , it was the same deadly breakdown

products! Biochemist Dr. Madelon Price who works with the famed Dr. John Olney

agrees.

 

The Material Safety Data Sheet on Aspartame (CAS# 22839-47-0 says that to work

with aspartame one should wear chemical goggles, protective gloves to prevent

skin exposure, a chemical apron and a NIOS/MSHA approved air purifying dust or

mist respirator. And Dr. Henney, this toxin is in children's vitamins and

medications. Are you not horrified?! It lists the hazardous decomposition

products as methanol, formaldehyde and DKP (tumor agent), carbon monoxide,

oxides of nitrogen, and carbon dioxide. Do you understand that we do not want

this toxin in our food. Dr. Blaylock in a lecture on www.dorway.com explains

that the reactions to aspartame are not allergic but toxic in nature like

arsenic and cyanide!! Do you want to approve more of the same and can you

imagine the synergistic effects with other excitotoxins like MSG??

 

In l986, the Community Nutrition Institute petitioned the FDA to ban aspartame

because people were going blind -- but the FDA refused! Cases continue to pour

in on this issue as aspartame destroys also the optic nerve. Focus RP Magazine

in November wrote an article on aspartame titled: " What's Blinding the World? "

(http://www.focusnewsletter.org/aspartame.htm) Would you dare to approve neotame

and increase this problem? The aspartame ADI was set for rats, not humans and 26

questions to the FDA have gone unanswered for years (on www.dorway.com)

 

Monsanto is the largest manufacturer of poisons in the world responsible for

aspartame, agent orange, RBGH and genetic engineering. An article titled

" Monsanto in Parliament " quoted speaker Norman Baker saying Monsanto has made

itself Public Enemy No. 1. He says they have bulldozed elected governments

across the world and forced its wretched products on to the world's population,

whether we want them or not. Further Monsanto has been condemned by the

Advertising Standards Authority, which found it guilty of making " wrong ...

unproven, misleading and confusing claims " . He further says it has used the

revolving door policy and makes sure that personnel from Monsanto and government

agency advisory bodies frequently switch positions. " Marcia Hale, the former

adviser to the US President is now the director of international government

affairs of the Monsanto corporation. Michael Kantnor, the former Secretary to

the US Department of Commerce is now a member of the Monsanto corporation board.

Josh King, the former director of production for White House events, is now the of Global Communications for the Monsanto corporation. Margaret Miller,

the former chemical laboratory supervisor for Monsanto, is now the deputy

director of the new animal drug evaluation office in the US Union documents that

have been passed to Monsanto by Dr. Nick Weber of the FDA, and a former Monsanto

analyst. " Also he says: " It is getting the Food and Drug Administration on

board " ...

 

The public has to know if you are on board with Monsanto and willing to approve

this toxin or there for the protection of the consumer's health against unsafe

food and drugs. Action speaks louder than words. Dr. James Bowen told the FDA

many years ago that aspartame was mass-poisoning of the American public and more

than 70 countries of the world. He ought to know as a victim that now suffers

with Lou Gehrigs Disease. Aspartame destroys the brain, the central nervous

system and the optic nerve and ravages every organ in the body. A recent study

by Trocho, Pardo and co-workers, has demonstrated that following aspartame

ingestion, significant amounts of formaldehyde accumulate in the tissues.

Formaldehyde is known to bind strongly to proteins and nucleic acids, forming

adducts that are extremely difficult to eliminate through normal metabolic

pathways. Dr. Blaylock says in this study, they demonstrated that labeled

methanol (as formaldehyde) accumulated in high concentrations in the liver (50%)

and in lower, but substantial, concentrations in the kidney, adipose tissue,

brain and retina. within the cell, they found large amounts located within the

DNA.

 

The largest study on aspartame is being conducted on the consumer public and as

we tally the results, this may end up being one of the largest epidemics in

world history! In May 1992, the official U.S. Air Force Magazine, FLYING SAFETY

explained: .. " People have suffered aspartame related disorders with doses as

small as that carried in a single stick of chewing gum. This could mean a pilot

who drinks diet sodas is more susceptible to flicker vertigo or to

flicker-induced epileptic activity. It also means that all pilots are potential

victims of sudden memory loss, dizziness during instrument flight and gradual

loss of vision. " (Three American Airline pilots who were heavy users of

aspartame died within the last year and a half and the FAA says they can't do

anything until the FDA does!) Indeed, Dr. Roberts said that aspartame laced gum

works like nitroglycerin, small molecules, goes through saliva straight to the

brain. We have sent case histories to FDA where consumers have suffered grand

mal seizures on a stick of this gum. I'll quote a copy of a letter sent to you

on 3/14/99 by Chelsea Tallman, 491 Westerly Rd, #102, Bellingham, Wa 98226, a 24

year old in whom aspartame shattered half of her life.

 

" For the past 12 years I have been plagued by the following symptoms: Severe

headaches, digestive problems, asthma, breathing problems, chronic fatigue,

depression, suicidal tendencies, dizziness, ringing in ears, pressure in ears,

loss of equilibrium, numbness in arms and legs, shooting pains in legs, blurred

vision, floaters, watering eyes, dry eyes, fibromyalgia symptoms, hormonal

problems, menstrual irregularities, pre-menopause, confusion, heart

palpitations, spasms, nausea, personality changes, rashes, Lyme's disease

symptoms, sleeping disorders, speech difficulties, swaying and staggering when

walking, swollen optic nerves, racing heart, change of taste, uncoordinated

walk, vertigo, weakness, weight gain in hips and thighs, and loss of 12 normal

functioning years of my life. The worst part is that I am only 24 years old! "

 

Dr. Henney, she goes on to say that her parents spent thousands of their

hard-earned money to try and find the culprit, and that her illness was so much

of a part of her life that it was written about in her marriage vows. She also

said: " After the total elimination of this substance from my diet, the symptoms

listed above have either disappeared, or are greatly diminished. I have,

however, accidentally ingested aspartame on 3 occasions, within minutes I

started suffering all over again. My suffering would last anywhere from days to

weeks depending on how much aspartame I ingested. Most of my original suffering

was from CHEWING 1 SINGLE STICK OF ASPARTAME-FILLED GUM A DAY. " Chelsea said you

would never want to see any of your own family suffer the way hers has. " Imagine

having your daughter always in such severe pain that it moved her to tears and

unneeded torture every single day. Imagine always being in fear that you would

get a phone call telling you your child had killed themselves just to stop the

pain they endured. " Recently an aspartame victim did commit suicide!

 

In Dr. Roberts letter about neotame on March 3, l998 he said: " As a physician

and citizen, I am appalled at the thought of American consumers being again

subjected to an anticipated repeat of the aspartame fiasco " ..

 

Another senior FDA toxicologist, Dr. Verrett told Congress that the studies that

approved aspartame were built on a foundation of sand and should have been

thrown out. These studies that were the target of an indictment for fraud that

was not carried out when two U.S. Prosecutors went to work for the law firm

defending the case and let the statute of limitations expire, actually approved

aspartame.

 

A petition for recall is now being signed at

http://www.e-thepeople.com/petition.cfm?PETID=109862

 

At Dr. Roberts first press conference he said unless something is done about

aspartame we would end up with a world plague, and that we have. This time,

listen to demands for recall by an outraged consumer public that has been

screaming about this toxin since it was approved. Dr. Ralph Walton on 60 Minutes

said only 90 independent studies are valid on aspartame, and of these 83 showed

problems!

 

As aspartame destroys the CNS it is mimicking MS, as it hardens the synovial

fluids victims are being misdiagnosed as having fibromyalgia and consumers are

getting brain tumors and going blind. Babies are being murdered in their

mother's womb and young people with their whole life ahead of them are dying of

brain tumors. It is escalating Alzheimers according to Dr. Roberts. It

precipitates diabetes, Graves Disease, epilepsy, chronic fatigue, Parkinson's

and ALS. A pivotal study (SC18862) submitted was done on 7 infant monkeys: 5 had

grand mal seizures and 1 died. The FDA report shows 92 symptoms from coma to

death. It triggers an irrregular heart rhythm and interacts with drugs. Dr.

Henney, don't let further disability and death be your legacy. Recall aspartame

and refuse to approve neotame.
