DECLARES ASPARTAME DISEASE GLOBAL PLAGUE
Aspartame-like
Neotame coming soon to a store near you
Mission Possible editor Betty Martini, who processes
the world's most cutting edge information regarding the toxic artificial
sweetener aspartame, reports that H.J. Roberts, M.D., has declared aspartame
disease a global epidemic upon publishing the 1,023-page medical text, “Aspartame
Disease: An Ignored Epidemic.” The declaration comes at a time when the
government of New Zealand has just approved the manufacture and sale of
aspartame clone neotame.
Aspartame
is commonly used as a dietary sweetener in over-the-counter beverages such
as Pedialyte and soft drinks. It has been proven to break down into formaldehyde
and methanol, both of which are known neurotoxins, at ambient temperatures.
Scientists believe that cumulative levels of aspartame are responsible for
a list of over 200 ailments that range from headaches, nausea, motor dysfunction,
irritability, fibromyalgia, Parkinson's disease, obesity and death.
“As we are
faced with one of the largest plagues in world history, the Australia New
Zealand Food Standards Council (ANZFA) approves the more potent aspartame
clone, Neotame,” said Martini.
ANZFA spokeswoman
Fiona Hodges (advice@anzfa.gov.au) explained that, “This sweetener offers
a viable alternative for people with the genetic disease phenylketonuria
as it does not break down to phenylalaine.”
According
to Martini, “The formula for Neotame [which is available at the Mission
Possible website at: www.dorway.com] proves phenylalanine is one of the
ingredients.”
In a discussion
with Dr. Jeffrey Bada, a peptide chemist who has written on aspartame, he
said that to produce neotame, they had simply scrambled the formula but
it has the same deadly breakdown products as aspartame. “Monsanto has now
sold the rights to Neotame to Childs but Monsanto Communications Director,
Nancy Nevin wrote some years ago: 'Compositionally it [neotame] begins with
aspartame, but a simple enhancement to the dipeptide base of aspartame uniquely
and markedly changes its sweetness. It is 40 times sweeter than aspartame,'”
Martini reported.
Dr.
H. J. Roberts wrote to the Dockets Management Branch of the FDA on 3/3/98
saying: “The timing and self-serving corporate interests of this petition
are suggested by the fact the patent on aspartame expired several years
ago.” Dr. Roberts has reviewed studies for both aspartame and neotame. He
found that those studies funded by Monsanto to “prove” the marketplace safety
of those synthetic sweeteners were skewed and lacking scientific merit.
Conversely, non-biased studies and field experience prove his theory that
such products are linked to global epidemics of a variety of serious chronic
illnesses.
Monsanto has a long
history of being able to get FDA approval for demonstrably unsafe and/or
toxic products. Bovine Growth Hormone and genetically engineered foods come
to mind. It has been reported that the FDA recently obtained patent rights
to terminator gene technology primarily developed by Monsanto.
