Re:aspartame/methanol poisoning - MS

[Guest guest]

Dear Johnna,

 

At 6 liters, you are fortunate to be alive, my dear. No wonder you

were paralyzed and unable to speak.

 

First of all, 6 liters is almost 7 quarts a day, that's quite an

addiction. The last time someone was drinking that much he ended up

in a coma at the Mayo Clinic. When I called the physician I told him

what he probably found like elevated liver enzyme studies, etc. He

finally said, " how do you know what the tests showed?, and I answered

" I don't, but I know what aspartame does " . He was suffering from

methanol poisoning from aspartame.

 

Aspartame is an adjuvant and it forms antigenic tissue, triggering

immunologic attack. So Dr. James Bowen explains how aspartame

triggers lupus this way:

 

" The ability of methyl alcohol/formaldehyde to create antigenicity,

especially as combined in aspartame molecules is so great as to cause

severe autoimmune reactions to the tissues deformed by formaldehyde

polemerization, adduct formation. The immune system turns against

the victim's tissues: Lupus. " Aspartame Disease can mimic lupus

and it can trigger it. It has been my experience in taking cases for

17 years that even when it triggers lupus, usually the victim becomes

asymptomatic off aspartame. However, you have been obviously using

aspartame since it was approved and its going to take quite a bit of

time for you to get well. That's why you need all the education you

can get on this addictive excitoneurotoxic carcinogenic drug that

interacts with virtually all drugs and vaccines and toxins.

 

I congratulate you on getting off aspartame, the addiction is very

bad, and yes because of withdrawal symptoms you get worse before you

get better. Dr. H. J. Roberts who wrote the medical text: Aspartame

Disease: An Ignored Epidemic, www.sunsentpress.com explains the

addiction this way. The free methyl alcohol which is classified as a

narcotic causes chronic methanol poisoning. This effects the

dopamine system of the brain and causes the addiction. Dr. Russell

Blaylock, neurosurgeon and author of Excitotoxins: The Taste That

Kills, www.russellblaylockmd.com has written this detox program for

aspartame victims. It's called " What To Do If You Have Used

Aspartame " : www.wnho.net/wtdaspartame.htm Dr. James Bowen says once

you have used it you're chemically hypersensitive for life. I know

that's bad news but as Dr. Bowen said, " you have to tell the victims

otherwise they won't be able to live a normal life " . What this means

is you can no longer use processed foods, you need to go back to

scratch. Even fluoride interacts with aspartame so you can't drink

tap water. There is a lot to learn and I would suggest that you

to the Aspartame Information List on www.mpwhi.com scroll

down to banners. That way you can ask any questions you want daily

and get an answer. As Dr. Roberts always says, " When in doubt throw

it out " . If you find something that has a list of ingredients you

can't pronounce don't consume it. Also, aspartame has an additive

and synergistic effect with MSG. Both aspartame and MSG can be

hidden in artificial and natural flavors.

 

You want to know where to get help. What state are you in? There

are Aspartame Detoxification Centers in the US and also the Essence

Recovery Center in Asheville, North Carolina takes patients with

aspartame addiction. But I would suggest that you give a copy of

this letter to your physicians along with the reports - the URL's I

gave you. Then they will understand why you have the problems you do.

 

As to Multiple Sclerosis, aspartame can mimic it or it can

precipitate it. Many times with people who don't take it as long as

you have, it just mimics MS, its the chronic methanol

poisoning. Methanol poisoning produces symptoms identical to MS.

 

For instance, here is a case where aspartame just mimicked MS. Her

story was later told in First For Women, with her new baby boy. She

thought she couldn't get pregnant and had no idea that aspartame is

an endocrine disrupting agent, stimulates prolactin, changes the

menses and causes infertility. A few weeks off aspartame all

symptoms disappeared and she was able to get pregnant. She had been

diagnosed by two physicians as having MS, but was simply suffering

from methanol toxicity.

 

6800 Peachtree Industrial Blvd, Apartment E-7, Doraville, GA

November 18, 1994

 

I'm a 29 year old athletic female victim of deadly NutraSweet

poisoning. I began to use it in the spring of 1990, and soon

afterwards my condition began to deteriorate. I never imagined my

strange symptoms were from a chemical, after all it's approved by the

FDA and on restaurant tables.

 

My eyesight began to fade until I was almost blind in one eye. Next

my hearing became dull and my legs, feet and torso lost sensation and

became numb. I was dizzy most of the time, irritable and depressed

and had constant terrible headaches. I became very clumsy, dropped

and bumped into things. I used to skate but having lost my balance, I

had to give it up. My mind was affected, and I thought I had a brain

tumor. Reading comprehension and memory drastically decreased. I

thought I was dying.

 

Two different doctors made the diagnosis of Multiple Sclerosis. One

was an eye specialist I saw about my vision loss.

 

This spring a friend explained to me that all my symptoms were coming

from aspartame (NutraSweet) and that I had methanol toxicity which

mimics Multiple Sclerosis. I was only drinking three Diet Cokes a

day. I could hardly believe the horrible nightmare I was living was

sold in 6 packs at the grocery store, but I would try anything so I

stopped. Right away I began to feel better, and today most of my

symptoms have completely disappeared. My friend, Betty, was right, I

was suffering from methanol toxicity. My hearing and vision have

returned and so has my memory. I'm no longer clumsy and have regained

my balance, and feeling has returned to my lower extremities.

 

How can a poison like NutraSweet be sold to an entire population? How

could it ever be approved by the FDA? I learned that I had the

classic symptoms, and if I had not been warned in time it may have

killed me. There is no doubt that the NutraSweet was responsible. One

day a hostess gave me a Diet Pepsi, and not wanting to hurt her

feelings, I accepted. Sure enough the next day my numbness returned,

and I began to feel ill.

 

This poison must be removed from the market. I'm writing to help

others in the hope that they can avoid the terror, confusion and

helplessness NutraSweet brought into my life!

Sincerely,

Alecia Morris

In all these years the symptoms have never returned and she is

leading a normal life. I'm sure the symptoms sound familiar to your

own case. MS is not considered curable so you know the difference as

aspartame victims improve or get well.

 

Dr. Woodrow Monte who wrote the peer reviewed journal

article: Aspartame: Methanol and the Public

Health: http://www.dorway.com/monte84.html has recently written two

articles having to do with the methanol and MS that are excellent:

 

Is Your Diet Sweetener Killing

You? http://www.thetruthaboutstuff.com/review1.shtml He also

explains the propaganda from industry when they say there is more

methanol in say oranges than in aspartame. What they don't say is

methanol in nature is always bound to pectin which takes it safely

out of your body. Secondly in vegetables or fruit there is always

ethanol which is the antidote for methanol toxicity.

 

Here is his second article: A Deadly Experiment - What Price

Aspartame? http://www.thetruthaboutstuff.com/review2.shtml Notice

he says that women bear the brunt of MS and lupus. He also talks

about the epidemic of MS.

 

The epidemic was published in a neurology report you will want to

read. It also includes Dr. Blaylock's paper on the MS and aspartame

connection along with a formula to get a patient out of a

wheelchair. It also has Dr. Roberts paper on MS or Aspartame

Disease. Notice he says a physician should not even make the

diagnosis of MS until the patient has been off aspartame for several

months. Further, he says a physicians should put aspartame MS

victims on drugs because they are already toxic from the aspartame

and its going to make them worse. So you note his suggestion of

waiting until the patient is off aspartame for some time. It could

be just mimicking MS, methanol toxicity, and you get a victim in time

they can get well like Alecia, the case up above. Also, in this

report is the case of a lady who convinced her neurologist aspartame

caused the MS by getting back on it. The neurologist was convinced

and now warns all his patients off aspartame.

 

In this post you will also find all the resources like books by

Doctors H. J. Roberts and Russell Blaylock, M.D. It will tell you

the story of Cori Brackett, who like you drank diet drinks for years,

ended up in a wheelchair not able to walk and barely could talk. She

had one of the largest lesions. She eventually walked out of her

wheelchair and 8 months later her large lesion all but

disappeared. She went on to make the film Sweet Misery: A Poisoned

World, www.soundandfury.tv Your physicians need to see this film as well.

 

Here is the URL for these very important reports and resources on the

MS issue: http://www.mpwhi.com/new_report_at_neurology_conference.htm

 

Here is also a report by Dr. James Bowen who wrote Aspartame Puts

Deadly Methanol in the

Blood: http://www.mpwhi.com/aspartame_and_methanol_in_blood.htm

As to optic neuritis its notorious, of course, with aspartame. The

free methyl alcohol converts to formaldehyde and formic acid in the

retina of the eye and destroys the optic nerve. Read these two

articles from Dr. Morgan Raiford who was considered " the specialist "

in methanol toxicity. He was an ophthalmologist here in Atlanta and

owned the Atlanta Eye Hospital. http://www.dorway.com/raiford.txt

and http://www.dorway.com/betty/morgraif.txt Notice he says in

this latter report:

 

" When this drug enters the digestive tract, largely the upper

portion, this ASPARTAME molecule spins

off a by product known as METHANOL or METHYL-ALCOHOL. This product

enters the blood stream and when these portions reach the highly

metabolic region of the OPTIC NERVE AND RETINA, PARTIAL ATROPHY CAN

AND DOES TAKE

PLACE. The vision can not do without oxygen and nutrition for more

than ninety seconds without revealing some damage. Total loss of

vision is present and there is no return. In the very early stages

in which is

referred to as the " wet stage " , treatment can be given and will

reserve the destructive pathology to the OPTIC NERVE and RETINA. "

 

The problem is the methyl alcohol enters the blood stream. As Dr.

Raiford explains in early stages referred to the " wet stage " there

can be a reversal. I know what you're experiencing because I have

optic neuritis myself. I didn't get it from aspartame but there is a

very dangerous drug on the market called Ambien CR for sleep. I used

it and it swelled up my face and optic nerve. I'm on a lot of

anti-oxidants. The FDA who is really just Big Pharma's Washington

Branch Office will approve anything. And they know aspartame is a

poison because they tried to have the manufacturer indicted for

fraud but both U.S. Prosecutors hired on with the defense team and

the statute of limitations expired. They then revoked the petition

for approval but it was through the political chicanery of Don

Rumsfeld that got it marketed. They ought to put everyone

responsible on an iceberg and send it out to sea. Cases like yours

never stop coming in. It's almost midnight and I could stay up all

night answering cases of MS or methanol poisoning from

aspartame. Incidentally, the tingling you're experiencing is from

the methanol. Read the FDA report of 92 symptoms on www.mpwhi.com .

 

Know we are here to help you and support you, so get on the

Aspartame Information List as there are many others who have gone

through what you have gone through. They will tell you what they did

to get better.

 

If you want to warn others the Idaho Observer www.idaho-observer.com

publishes the Artificially Sweetened Times, 26 page brochures on

aspartame disease for distribution. They say they will keep

publishing it until we get it off the market. They are very

inexpensive as they are only trying to help.

 

God Bless you and we look forward to your continued recovery. Just

take one day at a time and follow Dr. Blaylock's recommendations.

Forward all these reports to your physicians so they will understand

what happened to you and why. It's all in the physician's books.
