> In October of 2001, my sister started getting very

> She put her house, bank accounts, life insurance,

> She wanted her last hooray, so she planned a trip to

Aspartame in the diet soda,

> When she got to FL March 22nd, all she had to take was

> I have spent several days lecturing at the WORLD
> ENVIRONMENTAL
> CONFERENCE on "ASPARTAME" marketed as 'NutraSweet',
> '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, that it was hard to understand what
> toxin was causing this to be rampant. I stood up and

> 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.
>
> People were being diagnosed with having multiple
> sclerosis in error. The
> multiple sclerosis is not a death sentence, where
> 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,
> aggravating the lupus to such a degree that it may
> become life-threatening. We have seen
> patients with systemic lupus become asymptomatic once
> taken off diet sodas.
>
> In the case of those diagnosed with Multiple
> Sclerosis, (when in reality, the disease is methanol
> toxicity), most of the symptoms disappear. We've seen
> many cases where vision returned and hearing improved
> markedly. This also applies to cases of tinnitus.

> During a lecture I said "If you are using ASPARTAME
> (NutraSweet, Equal,
> Spoonful, etc.) and you suffer from fibromyalgia
> symptoms, spasms,
> shooting pains, numbness in your legs, cramps,
> vertigo, dizziness,
> headaches, tinnitus, joint pain, depression, anxiety
> attacks, slurred speech,
> blurred vision, or memory loss-you probably have
> ASPARTAME DISEASE!"
>
> People were jumping up during the lecture saying,
> "I've got some of these symptoms:
> Is it reversible?" Yes! Not drinking diet sodas and
> keeping an eye out for aspartame on food labels, yes!
>
> We have a very serious problem. A stranger came up to
> Dr. Espisto (one of my
> speakers) and me and said: "Could you tell me why so
> many people seem to be coming down with MS?" During a
> visit to a hospice, a nurse said that six of her
> friends, who were heavy Diet Coke addicts, had all
> been diagnosed with MS. This is beyond coincidence!
> Diet Coke and Diet Pepsi etc. IS NOT A DIET
> PRODUCT! The Congressional Record states that it makes

pounds over a trial period.
