Aspartame: What You Don't Know Can Hurt You

Is Aspartame causing some of your health problems?
There is a very simple way to ascertain whether or not this poisonous drug is causing your problem(s). Stop ALL intake of Aspartame (anything with Monsanto's NutraSweet, Equal, Spoonful, Benevia, NutraTaste) in it. READ LABELS. Have your pharmacist check all your medications, Aspartame is in many drugs. This poison is in over 9000 items including most Children's Vitamins, Children's Tylenol, Alka Seltzer, Toothpastes (my favorite source for quality toothpaste products which don't contain harmful ingredients can be found here), Metamucil etc.. Often it is only mentioned on the paper inside the carton.
Aspartame contains METHANOL, a serious metabolic poison. Your body converts it to formaldehyde (embalming fluid) and formic acid (ant sting poison) both of which attack your central nervous system and every organ of your body.

Hawaii Moves To Ban Aspartame (NutraSweet/Equal, Etc)

so now, Monstersanto (mother company) is re-naming since the patent is up to 'Amino-sweet' and is marketing it as a natural sweetener. Do they think we are stupid? Well, unfortunately, many people are clueless about this. ASPARTAME and MSG are in SO MANY PROCESSED FOODS. MSG is even in children's tylenol!!! Please read through the links.

This is ONE reason what Carla and some others of us say to stay away from processed foods. Who'da thunk it's in childrens vitamins and medications?

What I am going to do is design a card or flyer to take with me to coffee shops I may visit and when I see any equal, nutrasweet, etc and now AMINO SWEET, just had it to the owner/manager and put the info on the table. Yeah...I know it's prolly ing in the wind, but it's the least I can do.

Grrrr.

This is ----------- unbelievable!!
Please forward link to everyone,esp. those with Children who are drinking this crap.

Fruit juices drunk by millions of children each day could contain a harmful chemical linked to cancer, scientists have warned.
Researchers have found high levels of antimony - which can be lethal in large doses - in many popular brands.
Scientists from the University of Copenhagen found that bottles of fruit juice and squash contained up to 2.5 times more of the substance as is deemed 'safe' in tap water, under EU guidelines.
In some cases the levels of antimony were ten times higher.
The scientists believe that the chemical is leaching its way into the fruit juice from the plastic bottles which hold it.

Previous research found traces of the chemical in bottled mineral water which experts believed was leaching in from the plastic container.
The team has expressed 'concern' over their findings, published by the Royal Society of Chemistry, which they say raises fears for the health of millions of children.

It's as bad as big pharma too:

From Mike Adams Natural Health News Site:

Excerpt from Mike's latest newsletter:

Thanks to the bizarre new definitions of the psychiatric industry, children no longer throw temper tantrums, they are suffering from "Temper Dysregulation Disorder with Dysphoria."

A whole slew of new "disorders" is now being unleashed onto the public, categorizing virtually every human emotion, experience and condition as some sort of "disorder" to be treated with psychiatric drugs.

Read about this disturbing medical trend in today's feature article:
New psychiatric disorders flag normal human behaviors as "diseases"

You know it is done this way within the whole world today. Everything from A to Z is given a name to make it sound good or OK.

Evil stuff! Our Govt recently made a deal with Coke and Pepsi to provide only diet drinks in schools. Part of a 'health' initiative. Unbelievable. Of course water and juice can also be purchased, but what preteen is going to pay for water if given that choice?
Personally I think bottled water is just as bad.
