- Betty,
-
- I am 31 1/2 years old and changed to Diet Coke from Dr.
Pepper a year ago to lose weight, which I did! However, since that time,
I have suffered a severe clinical depression, worsening of my vision, and
muscle/joint pain, and most alarming of all, memory loss! To make matters
worse, during my pregnancy with my 9 year old, I consumed sugar free
frozen
yogurt (I craved it!) and he was born 4 months early, weighed 1
pound,
nine ounces and now suffers from Cerebral Palsy and mental
retardation.
Until now, we all assumed that these were both due solely
to premature
birth. Now I wonder if he was born prematurely because I
consumed Aspartame
and if so, did the Aspartame cause all of
this?
-
- I am
outraged! I want to know, are there any class action
law suits being
filed at this time? More importantly, if I stop using the
Aspartame
products, can my good health be restored, or am I permanently
damaged?
Any information you could give would be very much appreciated!

- Dear Lisa,
-
- First let me say my heart goes out to you. I feel as
much outrage because you see the FDA knows aspartame triggers birth
defects
and don't even have the decency to put a warning on aspartame
for pregnant
women. Now they are being petitioned to even allow it
unlabeled and I'll
send you that post. The FDA are very aware of Dr.
Diana Dow Edwards studies
on birth defects. I asked them why they
didn't accept that study and they
even refuse to answer the question
along with 25 others that went along
with it. Also, Dr. Louis Elsas
testified before Congress (Pediatric Professor,
Emory University,
Genetics) about aspartame being a teratogen and neurotoxin.

its completion on www.dorway.com

- Be sure to read Aspartame
Murders Infants by James Bowen,
M.D. on www.dorway.com . It also
goes into
celebral palsy.
-
- As to depression, the phenylalanine in aspartame lowers
the
seizure threshold and depletes serotonin. Lowered serotonin triggers
manic depression, panic attacks, anxiety, rage, mood swings, suicidal
tendencies,
etc. As to vision loss, the wood alcohol in aspartame
converts to formaldehyde
and then formic acid, even in the retina of
the eye and destroys the optic
nerve. Read What's Blinding the World
on www.dorway.com
-
- Dr. Morgan Raiford who
diagnosed many of those who went
blind in the 80's did say if it was in
the "wet stage" vision
can return. As to joint pain,
aspartame hardens the synovial fluids and
causes this horrible joint
pain. Now Searle (original manufacturer - Monsanto
bought them in l985
and has since sold) has made Celebrex for this joint
pain so they can
make more money on the agony their product has caused
the world. And
Celebrex too is a very dangerous drug, in the first 13
weeks on the
market 10 people died and other had gastrointestinal problems,
etc. It
also causes hemorrhaging and I've talked to several people who
said
their doctor took them off of it because of the side effects, mainly
the bleeding and cardiac problems. Of course, if they are still using
aspartame the drugs can interact because aspartame is a drug and not an
additive as the FDA would have you believe. By law additives are suppose
to be inert, and aspartame is about as inert or non-reactive as a forest
fire!
-
- Incidently, aspartame is a very addictive drug and going
along
with what you said about craving it, on the last page of the protest
of
the National Soft Drink Association on www.dorway.com
you will see a note
about that. It says that aspartame actually makes
you crave
carbohydrates. It's not a diet product. Most people gain weight
on
aspartame.
-
- We have two support groups you can click on to from www.dorway.com
and a detoxification page. Newton Labs has made an antidote and there
is a 1 800 number. Also, about memory loss, aspartame is legend at
causing
it. In fact, note that memory loss is #11 on the FDA list of
92 documented
symptoms triggered by aspartame. H. J. Roberts, M.D.,
has already declared
Aspartame Disease a world plague and is about to
publish his 800 page medical
text on this world epidemic.
-
- You can write Jane
Henney of the FDA about this recent
news that the Yogurt Association
wants the FDA to allow sweeteners in yogurt
unlabeled. Should the FDA
do this which is against the law they should
be immediately indicted
for malfeasance. The FDA approved aspartame even
though the Board of
Inquiry said it hadn't been proven safe and should
not be approved.
You can read the summation of this report on www.dorway.com After Dr. Arthur Hull Hayes
did this he went to work for the PR firm of the manufacturer and refuses
to talk to the press. Listen to Fox News expose on aspartame about a year
ago on DORway if you have audio. He slammed the door in the face of Fox
News and told them to go to the FDA.
-
- If you click on to the support
groups you will be getting
information I put on those lists. I do have
a Mission Possible list but
its one way, for case histories and new
news.
-
- I
will write you separately about attorneys and send
you some recent
emails that may interest you.
-
- Again, I am so sorry you weren't warned. I would give
your OB doctor Dr. Roberts position paper on aspartame and pregnancy and
small children and also Dr. Elsas testimony before Congress so he warn
other mothers and save the lives and health of thousands of other babies.
Because the FDA approved aspartame babies are being murdered in their
mother's womb, or if they survive they can be mentally retarded or have
birth defects.
-
- Jane Henney's email is JHENNEY@oc.fda.gov I'm also
sending
your case to the owner of a newspaper who is doing an article on
this
petition to allow unlabeled sweeteners in yogurt. Incidently, aspartame
has been found to be in natural and artificial flavors as well as MSG,
another excitotoxin you should avoid. (http://www.truthinlabeling.org)
I would suggest reading Excitotoxins: The Taste That Kills by neurosurgeon
Russell Blaylock, M.D., (amazon.com). He goes into the fact that
aspartame
triggers ADD and autism as well. And Dr. Roberts other books
and tapes
on aspartame you can get on www.sunsentpress.com Aspartame
(NutraSweet)
Is It Safe? by H. J. Roberts, M.D., Charles Press - you
can get from amazon.com
-
- Let's keep in touch. On www.dorway.com/handouts.html
are our warning flyers and I hope you will warn others. We are here to
support you and care very much.
