the aspartame epidemic by Betty Martini (bettym19@mindspring.com) - May 14, 2001 |

| Today physicians are opening aspartame detoxification centers to help the victims of this chemical poison. The first one was set up by Dr. Paula Rhodes in Atlanta, Georgia. When I first saw a sign for the Aspartame Detoxification Center, I knew the world was getting the message. Likewise, Dr. David Dahlman of the Hyde Park Holistic Center in Cincinnati has been treating aspartame victims from all over the country. Dr. Ron Austin is not only detoxifying aspartame victims but plans in the future to have them treated with hyperbaric oxygen. I also received a call from the Hyperbaric Oxygen Department of the Whitaker Wellness Center saying their doors are now open aspartame victims who want assistance. Monsanto could not put out the fire and sold the NutraSweet Company. They also sold the rights to Neotame, a more potent aspartame product. Dr. Jeffrey Bada, a peptide chemist, told me by phone that Neotame had the same dangerous breakdown products as aspartame. A 1998 study published in the prestigious journal Life Sciences showed that formaldehyde from aspartame accumulates in the cells and damages DNA, with substantial amounts of toxicity in the liver, kidneys, adipose tissue, retina, and brain. [19] The poisoning of the world's population by this FDA-approved potion is a tragedy on a scale unrivaled in history. Little blue packs of rat poison nestle in neat containers on every restaurant table, and it's added to thousands of foods. An avalanche of new afflictions is sweeping away the well-being of millions to feed the greed of corporations and bureaucrats without conscience, without honor. It is time to stop the massacre, destroy the destroyers. Endnotes [1]. Roberts, H.J., M.D. (1990) Aspartame (NutraSweet): Is it safe? Philadelphia, PA: The Charles Press. 2.
