    NutraSweet: The NutraPoison

    By Alex Constantine
    Deep Politics

    http://www.copi.com/articles/nutrasweet/nutrapoison.html

    "I recognized my two selves: a crusading idealist and a
    cold, granitic believer in the law of the jungle." Edgar
    Monsanto Queeny, Monsanto chairman, 1943-63, The Spirit
    of Enterprise, 1934.

    The FDA is ever mindful to refer to aspartame, widely
    known as NutraSweet, as a "food additive"-never a "drug."
    A "drug" on the label of a Diet Coke might discourage the
    consumer. And because aspartame is classified a food
    additive, adverse reactions are not reported to a federal
    agency, nor is continued safety monitoring required by
    law.1 NutraSweet is a non-nutritive sweetener. The brand
    name is misnomer. Try Non-NutraSweet. Food additives
    seldom cause brain lesions, headaches, mood alterations,
    skin polyps, blindness, brain tumors, insomnia and
    depression, or erode intelligence and short-term memory.
    Aspartame, according to some of the most capable
    scientists in the country, does. In 1991 the National
    Institutes of Health, a branch of the Department of
    Health and Human Services, published a bibliography,
    Adverse Effects of Aspartame, listing not less than 167
    reasons to avoid it.2 Aspartame is an rDNA derivative, a
    combination of two amino acids (long supplied by a pair
    of Maryland biotechnology firms: Genex Corp. of Rockville
    and Purification Engineering in Baltimore.)3 The Pentagon
    once listed it in an inventory of prospective biochemical
    warfare weapons submitted to Congress.4 But instead of
    poisoning enemy populations, the "food additive" is
    currently marketed as a sweetening agent in some 1200
    food products. In light of the chemo-warfare
    implications, the pasts of G.D. Searle and aspartame are
    ominous. Established in 1888 on the north side of
    Chicago, G.D. Searle has long been a fixture of the
    medical establishment. The company manufactures
    everything from prescription drugs to nuclear imaging
    optical equipment.5 Directors of G.D. Searle include such
    geopolitical heavy-hitters as Andre M. de Staercke,
    Reagan's ambassador to Belgium and Reuben Richards, an
    executive vice president at Citibank. Also Arthur Wood,
    the retired CEO of Sears, Roebuck & C disgorged by the
    clan of General Robert E. Wood, wartime chairman of the
    America First Committee.6 America Firsters, organized by
    native Nazis cloaked as isolationists, were quietly
    financed by the likes of Sullivan & Cromwell's Allen
    Dulles and Edwin Webster of Kidder, Peabody.7 Until the
    acquisition by Monsanto in 1985, the firm's chairman was
    William L. Searle, a Harvard graduate, Naval reservist
    and-a grim irony in view of aspartame's adverse effects-
    an officer in the Army Chemical Corps in the early 1950s,
    when the same division tested LSD on groups of human
    subjects in concert with the CIA.8 The chief of the
    Chemical Warfare Division at this time was Dr. Laurence
    Laird Layton, whose son Larry was convicted for the
    murder of Congressman Leo Ryan at Jonestown ("Come to the
    pavilion! What a legacy!"😉. Jonestown, of course, bore a
    remarkable likeness to a concentration camp, and kept a
    full store of pharmaceutical drugs. (The Jonestown
    pharmacy was stocked with a variety of behavior control
    drugs: qualudes, valium, morphine, demerol and 11,000
    doses of thorazine-a better supply, in fact, than the
    Guyanese government's own, not to mention a surfeit of
    cyanide.9)

    A long conspiracy theory. I seem to remember some years
    ago that Pat Robertson did an 'expose' of this very
    subject on the 700 Club. Whether you believe or not, this
    is fun reading. If you want to make sure you are
    protected, get out the roll of aluminum foil. Regarding
    conspiracies, they are popular pastimes that get your
    bloo 'a boiling and the adrenalin pumping. They're fun -
    but like John Payne said at the end of Miracle on 34th
    Street, 'now I'm not so sure'. Where there is smoke,
    possibly there is a spark. All legends begin with some
    fact. The hard part is deciding or gleaning just what is
    fact or fiction. You be the judge.

    Try and find one double blind study that proves one single claim, or don't bother I already looked. I looked for 2 days, I have diabetes and wanted to know. I could not find one single double blind study that backed a single claim. The only proof these folks ever give are testimonials. Testimonials are ussually void of fact. They tested the **** out of the stuff. I believe it is safe.

    I'm not going to be long for this world if Diet Coke is
    bad for my health!

    This means, of course, that I have to give up my Co-
    Cola??

    And anything that I eat is going to do irreparable harm
    to my old body?

    Gee whiz. Does that mean I've got to give up some of my
    current 77 years?

    But, giving it a little more thought, methinks I need a
    whole bunch of rolls of aluminum foil.

    laugh all you want. My oldest son has had two day-long,
    deblitating, hospitalized migraines, coupled with nausea
    and loss of equilibrium. Both times after ingesting this
    "food additive."

    Not funny.

    Before I ever read this, I had no opinion one way or
    another. My spouse is a diabetic and her and I cannot
    stand using aspartame - not because of what this says but
    it leaves an aftertaste (perceived or not, I don't know).
    We switched to Splenda which is a natural diabetic
    sweetener made from sugar (yes, we checked with our
    doctor and pharmacist first). It tastes like - sugar but
    has no carbohydrates. We have been watching the dietic
    foods very closely and many of them are quietly switching
    to Splenda. Who knows!

    At one time, it was the most tested food additive to ever
    hit the market. May still be, for all I know.

    And there is no evidence coming from the medical
    community that it is causing a problem.

    There's nothing wrong with Nutrasweet, but it would be
    nice if Splenda were in wider usage.

    It's sucralose, which doesn't spike insulin the way sugar
    and aspartame does.

    All I know is that I seem to have an alergic reaction to
    it. If I consume something with asperteme for a while, I
    develop a persistent cough, which goes away when I take
    it out of my diet. I experimented with this for two
    cycles (take it, develop cough, discontinue, cough goes
    away) to confirm
