>In October of 2001, my sister started getting very
sick. She had stomach
>spasms and she was having a hard time getting around.
Walking was a major

bed; she was in so
>much pain.
>
>By March 2002, she had undergone several tissue and
muscle biopsies and was
>on 24 various prescription medications. The doctors
could not determine
>what was wrong with her. She was in so much pain, and
so sick...she just
>knew she was dying.
>
>She put her house, bank accounts, life insurance,
etc., in her oldest
>daughters name, and made sure that her younger
children were to be taken
>care of. She also wanted her last hooray, so she
planned a trip to FL
>(basically in a wheelchair) for March 22nd.
>
>On March 19th I called her to ask how her most recent
tests went, and she
>said they didn't find anything on the test, but they
believe she had MS.
>
>I recalled an article a friend of mine E-mailed to me
and I asked my sister
>if she drank diet soda? She told me that she did. As
a matter of fact, she
>was getting ready to crack one open that moment... I
told her not to open
>it, and to stop drinking the diet soda !!! I E-mailed
her the article my
>friend, a lawyer, had sent.
>
>My sister called me within 32 hours after our phone
conversation and told
>me she had stopped drinking the diet soda AND she
could walk!!!! The muscle
>spasms went away. She said she didn't feel 100% but
she sure felt a lot
>better. She told me she was going to her doctor with
this article and would
>call me when she got home.
>
>Well, she called me, and said her doctor was amazed!
He is going to call
>all of his MS patients to find out if they consumed
artificial sweeteners
>of any kind...
>
>In a nutshell, she was being poisoned by the
Aspartame in the diet soda...
>and literally dying a slow and miserable death.
>
>When she got to FL March 22nd, all she had to take
was one pill, and that
>was a pill for the Aspartame poisoning! She is well
on her way to a
>complete recovery . and she is walking!!! No
wheelchair!!!
>
>This article saved her life If it says "SUGAR FREE"
on the label, DO NOT
>EVEN THINK ABOUT IT!!!
>
>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. It was difficult to determine exactly what
toxin was causing this to
>be rampant.
>
>I stood up and said that I was there to lecture on
exactly that subject. 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 and
>systemic lupus.
>
>Many people were being diagnosed in error. Although
multiple sclerosis is
>not a death sentence.. 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;
>irritating the lupus to such a degree that it may
become a life-threatening
>condition. We have seen patients with systemic lupus
become asymptotic,
>once taken off diet sodas.
>
>In cases 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 loss returned and hearing
loss improved markedly.
>
>This also applies to cases of tinnitus and
fibromyalgia.
>
>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,
unexplainable depression,
>anxiety attacks, slurred speech, blurred vision, or
memory loss...you
>probably have ASPARTAME poisoning!"
>
>People were jumping up during the lecture saying, "I
have some of these
>symptoms."
>
>Is it reversible?" Yes! Yes! Yes! STOP drinking diet
sodas and be alert for
>Aspartame on food labels!
>
>Many products are fortified with it!!!

speakers) remarked that so

his recent visit to a

were heavy Diet Coke
>addicts, had all been diagnosed with MS. This is
beyond coincidence!
>
>Diet soda is NOT a diet product! It is a chemically
altered, multiple

actually makes you
>crave carbohydrates. It is far more likely to make
you GAIN weight!

>These products also contain formaldehyde, which
stores in the fat cells,

an absolute toxin and

found that some

retinopathy, in fact,
