LINDA comment: Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy can disappear when you stop drinking Aspartame….problem is, it is difficult to get one’s head wrapped around this….believe it or not, there are doctors, whom I might add are very smart about many things, they continue to drink Aspartame and not inform their patients…..NOW THAT IS SCARY…..Like Betty says, just give it up for 60 days….Aspartame is VERY VERY addicting… I know, I had a personal addiction to it….was horrible to get off of…. I was sooooooooooo sick…diarrhea, vomiting, rash, anxiety, sweating, horrible body pain, the shakes…HORRIBLE JUST HORRIBLE….I even had to take benadryl shots around the clock to cut down the hives….my doctors said withdrawals from Aspartame is as bad as heroine addiction…. THANK GOD I GOT OFF IT….
Hi David,
What you read could be the case. I’ve seen it both ways. You can’t really predict because it takes in many factors like how long you have been on aspartame. what types you are using, and if you’re still getting some accidentally. As I told you Stuart Pape of the National Yoghurt Association has even petitioned the FDA to allow aspartame unlabeled n dairy and yogurt and the FDA has yet to answer one way or the other and I’ve asked twice. People can get it if they are using processed foods as many times it’s hidden in artificial and natural flavors. So many doctors do provide treatment for aspartame victims which does not work. As Dr. Roberts has explained many times, patients go from doctor to doctor having needless surgery and studies and spending hundreds of thousands of dollars when nothing is going to work until they get off aspartame.
As a ballpark figure, we tell victims to get off aspartame for 60 days because by that time if they pay attention to diet and don’t get anymore of the poison a lot of symptoms by that time have vanished. There are some who get off aspartame, and even though they go through withdrawal symptoms, immediately have peripheral neuropathy and other problems disappear. Since you have used it for 20 years, it could take a few weeks to get rid of. I had not remembered you said 20 years but I would suggest you keep a diary. I remember there was one physician who had peripheral neuropathy and I think it took him about 5 weeks to get rid of the neuropathy, and his other symptoms vanished in that time too. Dave Rietz who founded www.dorway.com against aspartame had joint pain and peripheral neuropathy. He died from aspartame but he went to 12 physicians who were clueless when he was suffering so badly. Then he saw the list of 92 symptoms on the FDA report and got off of it. Immediately the vast numbers of problems due to aspartame including peripheral neuropathy disappeared. However, it was the prostate cancer from aspartame that killed him. Dr. George Schwartz , toxicologist wrote a paper on it. Aspartame literally destroyed his life. After abstaining he even lost 50 lbs, the joint pain and peripheral neuropathy immediately disappeared. His eyesight improved as well and memory loss and brain fog
If you google aspartame and chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy you’ll see the link. Also aspartame disease has many times mimicked Lyme Disease. Here is one article you might want to read. This physician says Aspartame locks the Lyme Disease spirochete into the body. http://www.samento.com.ec/sciencelib/addons/lymeRichler.htmThen you might want to read Dr. James Bowen’e paper on Lyme Disease and aspartame: Lyme Disease is Sexually Transmitted and Reactivated by aspartame.http://www.rense.com/general5/lyme2.htm
Aspartame is hideously poisonous and can trigger or precipitate so many diseases its no wonder Dr. Roberts wrote a 1000 page medical text, Aspartame Disease: An Ignored Epidemic, www.aspartameispoison.com He had to even cut it down 40% in the beginning because it was too big to publish. Now he says it will take 200 pages to bring it up-to-date with all the new studies.
You have the link to Dr. Coldwell’s detoxification and Dr. Blaylock’s paper, “What to do if you have used aspartame”. That’s the way to begin. I’m sure there is a physician’s report on any problem you have from aspartame. So let me know and I’ll help provide you with the reports.
All my best,
Betty
