ASPARTAME LAWSUIT

Only for brain tumors in New York and New Jersey.  You may wish to
subscribe to the Aspartame Information List on www.mpwhi.com  so you
will get copies of my emails and ask questions if you do file suit.

Also, if you need to know anything about the problems let me know and
I’ll answer them for you.  For instance in the case of diabetes,
aspartame not only can precipitate diabetes but it simulates and
aggravates diabetic retinopathy and neuropathy, destroys the optic
nerve, causes diabetics to go into convulsions, interacts with
insulin and the free methyl alcohol causes them to lose limbs.

Studies have shown that sucralose can:

  * Cause the thymus to shrink by as much as 40% (the thymus is your
immune powerhouse – it produces T cells)
* Cause enlargement of the liver and kidneys
  * Reduce growth rate as much as 20%
* Cause enlargement of the large bowel area
  * Reduce the amount of good bacteria in the intestines by 50%
  * Increase the pH level in the intestines (a risk factor for colon cancer)
  * Contribute to weight gain
  * Cause aborted pregnancy low fetal body weight
* Reduce red blood cell count

Particular warning to diabetics:  Researchers found that diabetic
patients using sucralose showed a statistically significant increase
in glycosylated hemoglobin, a marker that is used to assess glycemic
control in diabetic patients. According to the FDA, “increases in
glycosolation in hemoglobin imply lessening of control of diabetes.”

Ajinomoto just announced a new name for aspartame called
AminoSweet.  Be warned.

Dear Ms. Oshita:

In reading available information, I assume you want mostly how
aspartame relates to cancer.  Indeed it is a carcinogen, proven so by
many scientific studies.  Aspartame also triggers many other serious
diseases which fill the 1,000+ page medical text, Aspartame Disease:
An Ignored Epidemic,
<http://www.sunsentpress.com/>www.sunsentpress.com by H. J. Roberts, M.D.

When FDA Commissioner Dr. Von Eschenbach took office I wrote him
about aspartame and cancer, mainly due to his professed intention to
save cancer victims; so much of this has already been
done.
<http://www.mpwhi.com/project_recall_aspartame.htm>http://www.mpwhi.com/project_recall_aspartame.htm
Later 12 toxicologists asked the FDA to ban aspartame because of the
long term Ramazzini studies on large rat populations showing
aspartame is “a multipotential carcinogen”.
<http://www.cspinet.org/new/pdf/aspartame_letter_to_fda.pdf>http://www.cspinet.org/new/pdf/aspartame_letter_to_fda.pdf

Now I’ll go back to the beginning.

Aspartame was not approved by science but thru the political
chicanery of Don Rumsfeld.  D.C. Attorney James Turner, explains how
Rumsfeld did it in the documentary Sweet Misery, a Poisoned World.
Here’s a clip from the movie so you can hear what he
said:
<http://www.soundandfury.tv/pages/rumsfeld2.html>http://www.soundandfury.tv/pages/rumsfeld2.html

Searle’s problem was they couldn’t get studies to show safety.  For
example, in  the Bressler
Report:
<http://www.mpwhi.com/aspartame_news.htm>http://www.mpwhi.com/aspartame_news.htm
you read where they would excise brain tumors from the rats, put them
back in the study and after they died resurrected them back on paper.
They even filtered out neoplasms to hide them from the
FDA.  Repeatedly Searle was caught in this criminal activity.

On January 10, 1977 in a 33 page letter, FDA Chief Counsel Richard
Merrill recommended to the Justice Department Attorney Sam Skinner
that a grand jury investigate Searle for “apparent violations of the
Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, 21 USC 331 (e), and the False
Reports to the Government Act, 18 U.S.C. 1001, for “their willful and
knowing failure to make reports to the Food and Drug Administration
required by the Act, 21 U.S.C 355 (i) and making false statements in
reports of animal studies conducted to establish the safety of
aspartame.” The FDA called special attention to studies investigating
the effect of NutraSweet on monkeys and hamsters.

Searle was caught dead to rights, so they hired Skinner, made him a
deal he couldn’t refuse. So the former Justice Department prosecutor
became a defender.  Next at bat as                   U. S. Prosecutor
was William Conlon, who promptly switched sides too. By then the
statute of limitations had expired. Searle knew they couldn’t win the
case so they simply hired the prosecutors.  The Godfather hired the
District Attorneys!

Nevertheless the FDA had no intention of approving aspartame.  The
fraud was so great that  Dr. John Olney (who with James Turner fought
against approval of aspartame ) told Searle to do studies in his lab
so he could see that they were done honestly, with supervision.  Dr.
Olney believed the FDA wouldn’t approve aspartame because the studies
showed it produced brain damaged.  What he didn’t anticipate is that
Searle didn’t submit these findings to the FDA.

January 30, 1980 the Public Board of Inquiry revoked Searle’s
petition for approval declaring that they had “not been presented
with proof of reasonable certainty that aspartame is safe for use as
a food additive.”   Searle had spent $17 million on an aspartame
factory and had no intention of giving up, poison or no.  At this
point they hired Donald Rumsfeld who said he would call in his
markers and get it approved anyway.
What were those markers?  President Reagan had told Rumsfeld he would
be nominated for vice president, but instead selected Bush number 1.

The day after Reagan took office he appointed Dr. Arthur Hull Hayes
as the new FDA Commissioner, to over-rule the Board of
Inquiry.  Reagan knew it would take 30 days to get Hayes to the FDA ,
so he wrote an Executive Order making the FDA powerless to do
anything about aspartame.  At 3 AM that night a member of Reagan’s
staff called the FDA Commissioner Jere Goyan and fired him.  Here is
a letter from his wife who was there when the terminating call came
in:  http://www.mpwhi.com/letter_about_jere_goyan.pdf

Once aspartame was on the market there was outrage as consumers were
diagnosed with seizures, multiple sclerosis and blindness from the
free methyl alcohol releases.  Senator Orrin Hatch, on Monsanto’s
payroll, obstructed hearings on aspartame for years, but there were 3
Congressional hearings from 1985 to l987.  Hatch was on Monsanto’s
payroll, and kept  the bill in committee that would put a moratorium
on aspartame until NIH completed independent studies on the flood of
aspartame problems they were seeing: seizures, blindness, headaches,
sexual dysfunction, behavioral problems, especially in children, drug
interactions and birth defects.

About that time  Dr. James Bowen wrote FDA that “aspartame is mass
poisoning of the American public and 70 countries” – today over
100.
<http://www.dorway.com/drbowen.txt>http://www.dorway.com/drbowen.txt
The good doctor wrote: “For this reason, I am opposed to labeling
aspartame content of food and drinks.  To do so would imply that the
government is taking some sort of responsible action….when the only
responsible action would be to immediately take aspartame off the
market, fully disclose its toxicities, offer full compensation to the
injured, public and criminally prosecute anyone who participated in
the fraudulent placement of aspartame on the marketplace.”

How was the new FDA Commissioner,  Arthur Hayes,  get rewarded for
over-ruling the Board of Inquiry?  He was hired as a consultant to
NutraSweet’s PR Agency on a 10-year contract at $1,000.00 a day, and
nobody’s heard a peep from him since, he got lockjaw.  Who ever heard
of a PR guy who won’t talk?

Now they began funding professional organizations
ladies-of-the-evening like the American Diabetes Assn, American
Dietetic Assn and numerous others to propagandize the public with
touting asparshame. Of course they also threatened scientists whose
studies identified the toxicity of this poison. In the UPI
Investigation Dr. Wurtman was threatened if he did studies on
aspartame and seizures he would lose his funding. He capitulated.
Read this report on the 8 month investigation by United Press
International:
<http://www.mpwhi.com/upi_1987_aspartame_report.pdf>http://www.mpwhi.com/upi_1987_aspartame_report.pdf
Dr. Wurtman, too, got a terrible case of aspartame lockjaw, but MIT
still gets the money.

ILSI, the International Life Sciences Institute, was born in 1978 as
a “research” front for our favorite poisoners.  It’s board members
are from Coke, Pepsi, Searle, Monsanto and the rest of the usual
suspects. If a university won’t play their way the get no pay, that
is to say, funding for fake “research”.

Over the years many independent studies have been done.  The
manufacturers say 200 studies that aspartame is safe as rain.  Some
of those were the ones FDA found fraudulent and sought prosecution
for, and others were simply bought and paid for quack studies from
rubber duck labs.

Consider seizure studies by Monsanto, they bought Searle in
l985:
<http://www.holisticmed.com/aspartame/abuse/seizures.html>http://www.holisticmed.com/aspartame/abuse/seizures.html
Seizures are listed 5 times on the FDA report of 92 symptoms that
range from male sexual dysfunction to
death:
<http://www.mpwhi.com/92_aspartame_symptoms.pdf>http://www.mpwhi.com/92_aspartame_symptoms.pdf
People are having so many seizures and going blind on aspartame that
the Community Nutrition Institute filed a petition to ban aspartame
in l986. Again the manufacturers put in the fix to prevent it from
being banned.
They were so worried someone would have a seizure they actually gave
people anti-seizure medication in the Rowan study.  ‘

Another impeccable “study” involved one-day consumption of,  believe
it or not:  a single capsule of aspartame. Tantamount to smelling the
bottle.  The got it peer reviewed with their power.  So when
consumers complain of seizures they say “we did studies and aspartame
doesn’t cause seizures”.

                   I smoked a Lucky once and I’m fine, so nicotine
doesn’t cause cancer!

They have all bases covered.  Today front groups like Calorie Control
Council, with full knowledge that aspartame causes birth defects and
mental retardation actually push the
poison:
<http://www.wnho.net/mh_aspartame_letter.htm>http://www.wnho.net/mh_aspartame_letter.htm

When 60 Minutes did a story about aspartame and brain tumors the
manufactures claimed to have all these studies showing safety.  Dr.
Ralph Walton who was on the show decided to research who funded the
“studies”:<http://www.dorway.com/peerrev.html>http://www.dorway.com/peerrev.html
Note that 92% of independent peer-reviewed studies show problems
aspartame causes, while those funded or controlled by industry all
say it’s safe. If you eliminate 6 studies the FDA, aspartame’s branch
office in Washington, messed with, and one pro-aspartame sponsored
summary, 100% of independent scientific peer reviewed studies show
aspartame problems.

As Dr. Bowen said: this is mass poisoning of the world.  Aspartame
destroys the brain, the optic nerve, the immune system and central
nervous system.  It devastates every organ of the body.  Epidemic
obesity, diabetes, sexual dysfunction, retinopathy and neuropathy,
optic nerve destruction, convulsions and insulin reactions, MS,
Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, IQ depreciation and dozens of other
afflictions have been inflicted upon us by this deadly neurotoxic
carcinogenic “sweetener”.

According to the prestigious Ecologist, aspartame was listed with the
pentagon in an inventory of prospective biochemical warfare weapons
submitted to Congress.
<http://www.mpwhi.com/ecologist_september_2005.pdf>http://www.mpwhi.com/ecologist_september_2005.pdf

Studies show the horrific damage done to the body.  For instance, the
Trocho Study shows the formaldehyde converted from the free methyl
alcohol actually embalms tissue and damages DNA.

Here are summaries of the two aspartame studies, Ramazzini, that
showed aspartame to be a  multipotential carcinogen, passed down
through the mother:

DR. MORANDO SOFFRITTI, lead researcher on two groundbreaking
long-term aspartame studies. He was recently honored at New York’s Mt
Sinai School of Medicine with the Irving J Selikoff Award For his
outstanding contributions to the identification of environmental and
industrial carcinogens and his promotion of independent scientific
research. Reviewing his two impeccable aspartame studies. Dr.
Soffritti explains:

The first ERF study (2005) was conducted on 1800 Sprague-Dawley rats
(100-150/per sex/per group) In order to simulate daily human intake,
aspartame was added to the standard rat diet in quantities of 5000,
2500, 100, 500, 20, 4, and 0 mg/Kg of body weight. Treatment of the
animals began at 8 weeks of age and continued until spontaneous
death. The results show that APM causes a statistically significant,
dose-related increase of lymphomas/leukemias and malignant tumors of
the renal pelvis in females and malignant tumors of peripheral nerves
in males. These results demonstrate for the first time that APM is a
carcinogenic agent, capable of inducing malignancies at various dose
levels, including those lower than the current acceptable daily
intake (ADI) for humans (50 mg/kg of body weight in the US, 40 mg/kg
of body weight in the EU).

The second ERF study (2007) was conducted on 400 Sprague-Dawley rats
(70-95/per sex/per group). In order to simulate daily human intake,
aspartame was added to the standard rat diet in quantities of 100,
20, and 0 mg/Kg of body weight. Treatment of the animals began on the
12th day of fetal life until natural death. The results of the second
study show an increased incidence of lymphomas/leukemias in female
rats with respect to the first study. Moreover, the study shows that
when lifespan exposure to APM begins during fetal life, the age at
which lymphomas/leukemias develop in females is anticipated. For the
first time, a statistically significant increase in mammary cancers
in females was also observed in the second study. The results of this
transplacental carcinogenicity bioassay not only confirm, but also
reinforce the first experimental demonstration of APMs multipotential
carcinogenicity.

Over six years ago I petitioned the FDA to ban aspartame.  The FDA
has 180 days to answer it.  They refuse, obviously because I’m using
their own words, and they don’t know how to get around the fact that
everything is a matter of record.   If it wasn’t so criminal one
would have to laugh at their propaganda – the idea that someone might
even consider believing them.  For instance, they will tell you there
is just a small amount of methanol, and there is more in
oranges.  What they don’t say is that in oranges that it is
accompanied by ethanol which is the classic antidote for methanol
toxicity and takes it out of your body safely.  Here is a peer
reviewed journal article about it.
<http://www.mpwhi.com/aspartame_methanol_and_public_health.pdf>http://www.mpwhi.com/aspartame_methanol_and_public_health.pdf
Methanol also binds to pectin.  In aspartame there is no
ethanol.  Here is their basic propaganda answered with

A detox formula for aspartame victims endorsed by Dr. Russell
Blaylock, Neurosurgeon:

Available are his excellent books and a CD :”The Truth About Aspartame”

There are efforts now in states and countries to rid the planet of
aspartame.  It is genetically engineered.  The manufacturers are get
people in high places addicted.  When I testified to the Senate in
New Mexico, half the senators were sipping Diet Coke.  Presidents
Clinton and Bush were addicted.  Methanol is classified as a
narcotic, it causes chronic methanol poisoning. This effects the
dopamine system of the brain producing addiction.

  I’ve lectured in other countries and I can tell you people are sick
and dying the world over on this poison. It would be great to see it
banned from California.  First of all its illegally on the market
because it violates the Delaney Amendment.  Here are comments from an
FDA toxicologist, Dr. Adrian Gross, to Congress on 8/1/85:

Dr. Gross testified that at least one of Searle’s studies “has
established beyond ANY REASONABLE DOUBT that aspartame is capable of
inducing brain tumors in experimental animals and that this
predisposition of it is of extremely high significance. … In view
of these indications that the cancer causing potential of aspartame
is a matter that had been established WAY BEYOND ANY REASONABLE
DOUBT, one can ask: What is the reason for the apparent refusal by
the FDA to invoke for this food additive the so-called Delaney
Amendment to the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act?”

The Delaney Amendment makes it illegal to allow any residues of
cancer causing chemicals in foods. In his concluding testimony Gross
asked, “Given the cancer causing potential of aspartame how would the
FDA justify its position that it views a certain amount of aspartame
as constituting an allowable daily intake or ‘safe’ level of it? Is
that position in effect not equivalent to setting a ‘tolerance’ for
this food additive and thus a violation of that law? And if the FDA
itself elects to violate the law, who is left to protect the health
of the public?” Congressional Record SID835:131 (August 1, l985)

Here is my letter to the Assembly Committee on Health which exposes
the fact that it’s adulterated:
<http://www.mpwhi.com/letter_to_a_n_kim_california_ach.htm>http://www.mpwhi.com/letter_to_a_n_kim_california_ach.htm
The adulteration  means it violates interstate commerce laws.

Consumer power is winning the war against this toxin. Holland
Sweetener, the largest European aspartame producer closed in 2006.
Another European maker also quit. In Japan Tosh stopped making it as
well.  Merisant, in the USA went bankrupt for $230,000,000 in
January, 2009.  47 members of Parliament signed for a ban in the
UK.  There is continuing effort to get banned in the
Philippines.  Romania banned it in the early 90’s because it’s
carcinogenic. And now the European Food Safety Authority is doing a review.

Today no drug is safe if the consumer is using aspartame because of
the interaction due to damage to the mitochondria.  It’s used in
hospitals because of the dietitians making patients even sicker.

The Nutratanic hit the iceberg and Coke & Pepsi are in the lifeboats
with new sweeteners in the works. Japan’s Ajinomoto and the USA
NutraSweet Co are still slapping around in the frigid waters of
consumer
condemnation.
<http://www.wnho.net/recipe_for_death.htm>http://www.wnho.net/recipe_for_death.htm

  If I can provide further data I’ll gladly do so. There is no way to
show safety on aspartame with honest, unbiased studies.  Eliminate
industry studies to defend its product and you’ll see how deadly is
this toxin.  Dr. Bill Deagle said its more deadly than depleted
uranium because its ubiquitous  in our food.
