aspartame has no warning for birth defects and mental
retardation and 70% of the population is using it and 40% of
children. The FDA refuses to add a warning because their loyalty is
to the manufacturers instead of the consumers. It was predicted by
Dr. John Olney who founded the field of neuroscience called
excitotoxicity: http://www.wnho.net/dr_olney1.doc Prophecy fulfilled.

SOME ASPARTAME TOXIC AGENTS -

* Methyl alcohol
* Phenylalanine [PHE]
* Aspartic Acid
* Diketopiperazine
* Formaldehyde
* Formic acid

Aspartame, APM, is sold as NutraSweet and Equal and is in thousands
of foods and diet drinks. At every point in the fertility process APM
destroys, beginning with the gleam in Mom and Pop's eyes: it ruins
female sexual response and induces male sexual dysfunction. Beyond
this, aspartame disrupts fetal development by aborting it or inducing
defects. And if a live child is born aspartame may have heinously
damaged the DNA of the baby, cursing future generations.

APM's abortifacient properties are inherent in its structure. As the
3- cornered molecule is metabo- lized it releases methyl alcohol,
plus phenylalanine and aspartic acid, both neurotoxins. The methyl
alcohol breaks down into formaldehyde, then formic acid. APM methyl
alcohol/formaldehyde poisoning, engenders a host of cumulative
degenerative diseases and functional abnormalities. Isolated
phenyalanine and aspartic acid are neurotoxic.

Formaldehyde is recognized as a potent adjuvant which causes foreign
proteins to be recognized as antigens by the immune system,
triggering immune responses to destroy them. Because of its adjuvancy
formaldehyde is included in many vaccines. A challenge the mother's
body must overcome to carry a fetus is keeping the maternal immune
system from identifying the varied fetal tissues as foreign proteins
and destroying them. APM denatures fetal tissues creating an
antigenicity stimulus enticing destruction by the maternal immune
system. This termination of pregnancy can be so rapid that the mother
may not notice a delayed period or she may miscarry almost immediately.

The ability of methyl alcohol/formaldehyde to create antigenicity,
especially as combined in APM molecules is so great as to cause
severe autoimmune reactions to the tissues deformed by formaldehyde
polymerization, adduct formation. The immune system turns against the
victim's tissues: Lupus.

Beyond the danger of attack from the maternal immune system, APM
directly damages the fetus. A good reference point is fetal alcohol
syndrome: lifelong deformity, disability and loss of mental acuity in
infants who survive maternal alcohol abuse. Even moderate use of
beverage alcohol by the mother abuses the fetus and its future.
Methyl alcohol is fifty times as potent an intoxicant as ethyl
alcohol [beverage alcohol]. Formaldehyde is 5,000 times more potent.
Assembled in the carefully crafted APM molecule these neurotoxins are
about 20,000 times more potent than beverage alcohol.

Because of APM's extreme toxicity even minute doses are destructive,
damaging fetal nervous systems and related structures. Eyes and
hearing come to mind. All tissues are similarly damaged as beyond its
functional neurological intoxicating effects, methyl
alcohol/formaldehyde is the strongest organic base in the living
organism and is a polymerizing agent, turning tissue into plastic.
From such poisoning there is no escape, it is obligatory metabolism
by alcholdehydrogenase of methyl alcohol into nascent formaldehyde,
occurring 75% in the cytosol [cytoplasm] and 25% in the mitochondria.

A SHORT LESSON on PROTEIN FORMATION: Proteins are usually four long
chains [polypetides] of the 20 amino acids we get from food. Amino
acids are structures of 10 to 27 atoms. [hydrogen, oxygen, carbon,
nitrogen, one has an atom of sulfur] These 20 amino acids the are
letters of the biochemical alphabet which spell out proteins, some of
which contain thousands of amino acids. To support rapid growth the
fetus requires lots of amino acids which the placenta supplies in
400% concentration. Amino acids in fetal veins are four times that in
the mother's blood. Natural foods are complex mixes of amino acids,
no food is merely one or two isolated amino acids, as is APM.

APM is 50% phenylalanine [PHE] which is a nutrient when accompanied
by other amino acids, however isolated PHE is toxic, especially for
the fetus or infant. Dr. Louis Elsas, Professor of Pediatrics
[Genetics] at Emory University, testified to Congress: "I have spent
25 years in biomedical sciences trying to prevent birth defects
caused by excess phenylalanine. And therein lies my basic concern,
that aspartame is in fact a well known neurotoxin and teratogen
which, in some as yet undefined dose, will both reversibly in the
adult and irreversibly in the developing child or fetal brain,
produce adverse effects. Senate Hearing 11/3/87 Labor & Human
Resources Committee

The 400% placenta-supplied concentration of isolated phenylalanine
from APM causes mental retardation! The PHE in a plate of beans is
absorbed in about 20 hours in competition with the other amino acids.
The PHE in a Diet Coke is absorbed in a few minutes in competition
with nothing. This is highly significant because amino acid
biochemistry at enzyme sites is competitive and PHE out-competes all
the others, which means isolated PHE from APM, in the fetal brain
with no competition, destroys it!

I have a cerebral palsied grandchild because my daughter-in-law
refused to listen and drank NutraSweet pop during her pregnancy. A
nurse who headed a visiting nurses association in Nebraska has two
cerebral palsied grandchildren from NutraSweet. Their mother said "Oh
Mom, its that safe natural NutraSweet. Only when she delivered her
second palsied child did she admit her life was devastated from
trusting the FDA, the media, and the APM advertising by "ethical
food, beverage and drug industries.

Another nurse, a close personal friend in Walla Walla, Washington,
had a grandchild so cerebrally palsied by aspartame it will never
lift its head from a pillow but merely stare blankly into space for
its whole life. Their church eschews using large amounts of sugar, so
the father came home and announced "No more sugar in this household!
We're going to use that safe natural NutraSweet from now on."

Heel-stick blood sampling is routine on newborns to screen for
Phenylketonuria to identify infants with PKU so to protect them from
the severe brain damage they can sustain from even a single meal of
foods high in phenylalanine. Think of the damage to PKU infants by
maternal APM consumption. Consider the shroud of tragedy that
overcame the lives of these hopeful parents, then multiply their
number by hundreds, by thousands, and find a better word than MURDER!

APM is 40% aspartic acid. This amino acid, when isolated, is
excitotoxic, it excites neurons or brain cells, to death. Like
formaldehyde, APM is a chromosomal damaging agent. The neurological
dangers to the developing fetus are obvious. The chromosomal damage
in the mother may be inherited by the fetus and since a female fetus
contains at birth all the ova she'll ever have, future generations
are forever endangered by inherited chromosomal damage as well the
damage to her developing ovaries from the aspartame her mother
consumes during pregnancy.

So-called "health supplements made of isolated phenylalanine,
aspartic acid, glutamic acid [glutamates as in MSG] and other
dicarboxylic amino acid neuroexcitotoxins such as picinolates are
marketed either as acts of blind ignorance or deliberate malice. They
do the exact opposite of what they're sold for, i.e. isolated
phenylalanine can cause nerve transmitter disruption, brain
malnutrition and neurotoxicity leading to impaired mental
functioning, depression, headaches, and other reactions.

BRAIN TUMORS: As it breaks down APM creates diketopiperazine and with
the intact APM molecule you have the two greatest brain tumor
carcinogens discovered by science thus far responsible for the
massive brain tumor epidemic we now witness. The methylated aspartyl
radicals such as the N-methylD aspartyl radical, et al, are
recognized as causative of about every known neuro-degenerative
disease. To independently research these issues look up "The
Proceedings of the First International Symposium on Phenylalanine
Metabolism by Dr Richard Wurtman, head of Neuroendochronology at MIT.
He has since for his own reasons become a defender of APM, but the
record created by the world's best minds on phenylalanine pathologies
are in that document. Read Dr. Hyman Roberts, excellent books
documenting APM causation of schizophrenia by its action in the mid
brain and cerebral cortex.

CHELATION: [Chelate, from the Latin word for Claw, a chemical which
seizes and holds other chemicals, often metals] Aspartame was kept
off the market by the once intact FDA. A compelling reason the FDA
rejected APM is its potent chelating activity, which rapidly picks up
toxic metals and carries into the body even metals the body would
normally refuse to absorb through digestion. The extreme lead
poisoning danger to a child's developing brain and organs is well
known. Many metals NutraSweet carries into us are as damaging as
equal concentrations of lead. The strongest evidence is what APM does
to people. Consider this 3/23/00 report from B. Lynn. FDA will call
this deplorable tragedy an "anecdote.

"My [then] 5 year old daughter was getting migraine headaches and
vomiting. My sister-in-law, an RN, told me to get her off the diet
soda. I have only seen two such headaches in the last thee and a half
years, no vomiting. My mother, an avid drinker of Diet Coke suffered
a stroke at 53. My aunt at 57 suffered a stroke. My nephew at four
months was Dx with Infantile Spasms. My friend, after months of tests
and pain was Dx with Fibromyalgia, drinks 5-6 Diet sodas a day.

In 1995 I suffered a miscarriage. 3 months later I conceived my son.
He was born with VACTERL Association. He had every anomaly in the association:

V - Vertebra, he had a tethered spinal cord A - Anal Artesia [no anal
opening] C - Cardiac, open heart surgery at 5 months TE - Trachea
Esophegeal Artesia. Esophagus attached to his Trachea R -
Renal/Radial defects. He has a hypo plastic thumb and a horseshoe
kidney L - Limb defects One arm shorter, skeletal anomalies still
being discovered.

They could never explain why my perfect pregnancy produced such a
child. I sent this to some friends that belong to support group for
children with anorectal malformations. The response will be emotional
to say the least. We've all searched for an answer to what caused
these horrible defects in our children. A better word than murder?
GENOCIDE! There's a Federal Law against Genocide: Criminal Code,
Title 18 Chapter 50A, Sec 1091-3 It has no statute of limitations, &
provides: Whoever, whether in time of peace or time of war, with
specific intent to destroy, in whole or in substantial part, a
national, ethnic, racial or religious group as such--

* Kills members of that group
* Causes serious bodily injury to members of that group
* Causes the permanent impairment of the mental faculties of
members of the group through drugs, torture or similar techniques
* Subjects the group to conditions of life that are intended to
cause the physical destruction of the group in whole or in part
* Imposes measures intended to prevent births within the groups
shall be punished as provided in subsection B [B says if death
results: Death or life imprisonment & a fine of not more than $1,000,000]
All five rules have been smashed by the aspartame/NutraSweet
industry. We, the population of the United States are the Group. The
sellers of APM poisoned foods and drinks knew in advance the havoc it
would wreck on our nation's health. That knowledge establishes
intention. Test SC18862, submitted for APM approval involved feeding
aspartame to 7 infant monkeys.

One died; 5 had grand mal seizures, an 86% casualty rate,
nevertheless FDA approved the poison so is equally culpable with the
manufacturers. 75% of all complaints on food additives are on APM
which FDA tallied into a list of 10,000 consumer complaints of 92
symptoms, including death, but you can't get the list without a Congressman.

Note #3, mental impairment: APM depletes serotonin from which victims
suffer manic depression, hallucinations, paranoia, rage, suicidal
tendencies, anxiety and panic. Surgeon General Satcher said 22% of
the population now suffer mental problems. APM is involved! I've
shown how rule #5 is fulfilled by destruction of our unborn and
living children. This law makes all producers and marketers of
aspartame criminals. What will the justice department and the courts
do to protect us?

Comment:
From the perspective of a person heavily invested in pharma
stock, a
primary owner of a pharma corporation, or a kowtowing pharma servant
in a
"regulatory" agency, that 1 in 6 kids is damaged is good news and
portends
well for ongoing sales of pharmaceuticals. The policies
whereby toxins are patented, produced, distributed, and used - as
well as
injected - are bearing fruit in the most lucrative of ways: income
transfer at its most efficient - from the many who are injured unto the
aforementioned few.
