The Sweetest Poison Of All (T.P. McWhorter)

  Oct. 28, 2008 (World News Trust) -- I have noticed, that here in Malta, as well as in all of the places in the United States with people with whom I still have contact, that there are HUGE rises in a few fairly odd diseases.

  The diseases of which I speak are CFS, otherwise known as "Chronic Fatigue Syndrome," Fibro-Myalgia, increases in brain tumors and lymphoma, blindness, and other forms of cancer, as well as many other neurological disorders.

  According to data found on the internet, and from doctoral sources here in Malta and New York City, several serious conclusions have been reached about the products known as Nutra Sweet, Sorbitol, Equal, and Aspartame --  all also known as Phenylketoneurics.

  The poisons Nutra Sweet produces include Aspartic Acid 40 percent, Phenylalanine 50 percent, and Methanol 10 percent, none of which belong in the human body.  http://www.quizbot.com/homepage/links_aspartame.htm   

  You might recall when growing up that your mothers might have told you to not drink wood alcohol as it would make you blind.  http://www.quizbot.com/homepage/links_aspartame.htm

  That wood alcohol is Methanol.  Well, there are also increases in glaucoma cases as a result of greater usage of Nutra Sweet because the chemicals used to make is affect the eyes negatively. Aspartame/Nutra Sweet's 40 percent Aspartic Acid is an "excitotoxin" in the brain and excites neurons to death, i.e. it kills brain cells and causes other nerve damage.  Aspartame/Nutra Sweet's breakdown products attack the bodies tissues and create formaldehyde which builds up in the tissues forever. Remember the smelly, eye watering fumes from the frogs you dissected in school? They were preserved with Formaldehyde!  Formaldehyde, when ingested, causes cancer.

  Basically, a company called Hatco Chemical Corporation, in Fords, N.J., is a maker of Nutrasweet products. A trucker who drove for Hatco in the past made these assertions, "I used to haul aspartame from Monsanto in St. Louis Mo. to Hatco Chemical in Fords, N.J., to be processed, and then it was hauled to University Park, Ill., where the Nutra Sweet company was located. I was told by employees at Hatco that it would use chemicals found in Phosgene Gas as well as other chemicals. Hatco produced Phosgene Gas for the military in years past. Most of the plant there was contaminated with these and other dangerous chemicals. At the Nutra Sweet Plant in Illinois employees had to wear filter masks as to not ingest the dust, also they had to wear gloves, not to keep from contaminating the Nutra Sweet, but to keep from being poisoned."  Just so you folks know, Phosgene gas was used as a chemical nerve agent used by many countries, including the United States, as a weapon during World Wars I and II. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosgene

   Anyhow, anytime you get one of those fancy-shmancy packs of gum, so beautifully packaged in foil, be aware that the little warning on it, "Contains Phenylketoneurics," is a warning that the contents are hazardous.  And that goes for ANY supposed diet products.  You'll probably observe as you go on in life that people who are constantly eating these kinds of gum, living on bottles of Diet Coke, and so on are also developing pre-diabetic symptoms even thought the do not eat sugar, because the Aspartame causes, or tricks, the pancreas in releasing insulin every time a person ingests Nutra Sweet, so that causes the blood sugar to rise, even though no sugar has been taken in.  You'll also notice that many of the people you may know that have CFS (see  http://www.cfs-recovery.org/aspartam.htm ) or Fibro-myalgia are also chronic Nutra Sweet users.  Fibro-myalgia was a non-existent illness until twenty years ago.  Fibro-myalgia happens because of the breakdown of nerves that become reactive to movement and touch, which is what the pain from that disease is all about, and all because of the phosgene gas from the ingestion of Nutra Sweet.  Not to say that there are not some folks predetermined genetically to have a disorder such as CFS or Fibro-myalgia, but the increases are direct results of the introduction of Nutra Sweet to the diets of humanity.

   It was 1984 when Nutra Sweet blasted its way onto the common markets as Saccharin was being blasted for being another cancer causing agent, and the world needed a replacement.  The FDA in the USA pushed Nutra Sweet through, without proper testing to appease those in need of a sugar substitute.  This was done during the rogue deregulation years of Reagan, whose deregulation ushered in such classic as "THE FAILING WORLD ECONOMY OF 2008," the destruction in the United States of the FCC's Fair and Equal Balanced act which gave way to such fear and hate mongers as Bill O'Reilly, Rush Limbaugh, and Sean Hannity, all of which go unchecked for their lies, deceit, and hypocrisy, damaging all by way of their venom they eschew. But I digress.  Nutra Sweet came onto the marketplace and now it is hurting more people than people know or want to admit, and the are very few screaming from the rooftops about this horrible product that makes so many sick by way of poison, leading to slow and painful deaths.

   I write this today because I have several friends I have watched over the past twenty years that embraced the Nutra Sweet sugar substitute as a way of life, and I am not saying that they are on the verge of death today either, but they are mostly sick, too much of the time.  The common thread I have noticed, as I am an observant fellow, is that they are all constant users of Phenylketoneurics.  And I know, we are all gonna die from something, but hey, if there is anything I can do, or you can do to prevent the illness or deaths of others, isn't that what being human is all about?  Please tell your friends, families, and more to investigate the dangers of a product that is so wrong, so damaging, and so sweet, as it is the sweetest poison of all.
