Day 273 - Eat the Real Thing

Fresh ingredients - the Real Thing!

I'm personally on a mission to remove various forms of sugar from my diet,  using mostly Agave Nectar, Maple Syrup, and Stevia for my cooking. I was using Xylitol until recently as I discovered most companies do not use purely the Birch tree, but use Corn cobs in the process. Aspartame is among the worst of fake sweeteners also known as sugar-substitutes.  Please take the time to go to Mission Possible and read more about this product and the dangers it poses to your health.

Here are just a small excerpt from the site of side effects:
There’s an athlete alert written by neurosurgeon Dr. Russell Blaylock and one written by Dr. H.J. Roberts as far as dropping dead on it.

it causes male sexual dysfunction and ruins female response.

 The woman or even the man can cause birth defects in their own child if they’re using aspartame at the time of conception.

If the woman is drinking it, she can’t get pregnant to begin with because it’s an endocrine-disruption drug.

It stimulates prolactin and causes infertility. Then she gets off of it and gets pregnant, and then she gets back on it. It’s an abortifacient.

Many people lose their babies before they know they’re pregnant.

Then it’s a teratogen and causes birth defects and mental retardation. I think I sent you the autism chart that showed autism going straight up with the approval of aspartame. You see how serious it is.

Then what about the relationship of a man and a woman? You have 50% phenylalanine, which is an isolate. It’s a neurotoxin. It floods the brain, lowers the seizure threshold, and depletes serotonin.

People suffering from depleted serotonin suffer suicidal tendencies, manic depression, paranoia, schizophrenia, panic attacks, insomnia, and other things. Then it interacts with all antidepressants.

Yum!  This is a "Diet" I can live with!

When the whole molecule breaks down to diketopiperazine, that’s a brain-tumor agent. When you think of the worst things, the Ramazzini Study has shown that it’s a multi-potential carcinogen. All you need is just a little bit of aspartame to cause cancer. He has shown it causes lymphoma, leukemia, and kidney cancer. In original studies, it caused so many different types of tumors: adenocarcinoma and brain, testicular, pancreatic, thyroid, mammary, and uterine tumors.

You’re talking about a very poisonous product. It’s in 10,000 products. It’s hidden in products like over-the-counter drugs. Look what it is doing to children. Most of the pediatric vitamins that you find in the stores have aspartame in them.

What if you take your child to a pediatrician, the pediatrician says, “We need to give you pediatric penicillin.” He’s going to prescribe Augmentin which has Aspartame in it.

I personally can testify that Aspartame gives me seizures.  If you've thought before that it must be ok or it would be taken off the shelves, please think again.  

You are better off using the REAL THING.
