Aspartame Addiction with comments by Linda & Dr. Betty Martini

Linda’s comments:  I don’t know what it is going to take to get these aspartame addicted folks off the diet products…because of the addicting qualities of artificial sweeteners like Aspartame, Equal, Splenda, NutraSweet, it continues to grab people like Heroine…..Let me tell you when I went through my poisoning with diet cokes and diet Dr Pepper, the withdrawals were DEADLY….I ended up loosing part of a lung because of that addiction…The liver damage is unbelievable with these addicted people….It is amazing the brain tumors Dr Blaylock has removed due to Aspartame….the organ damage is unreal….you can’t really blame these folks as they do not realize THEY ARE ADDICTED……The withdrawals I went through almost put me in the hospital…..hives, vomiting, diarrhea, fever, joint aches and heart palpations….HORRIBLE…
I PRAY THAT GOD WILL HELP WITH THESE ADDICTIONS….

Dear Jenna,

I think we get more cases of MS and Lupus than anything else, although there are so many symptoms and diseases triggered or precipitated by aspartame that the medical text by Dr. Roberts is  over 1000 pages, and it was cut down 40% just to publish.  Aspartame Disease: An Ignored Epidemic, www.sunsentpress.com MS is on the cover.

Dr. James Bowen explains the aspartame lupus connection this way: The ability of methyl alcohol/formaldehyde to create antigenicity, especially as combined in APM molecules is so great as to cause severe autoimmune reactions to the tissues deformed by formaldehyde polymerization, adduct formation. The immune system turns against the victim,s tissues: Lupus.

As to MS, aspartame disease can mimic or eventually precipitate MS.  Many people like Cori Brackett have walked out of wheelchairs simply by getting off of it.  In a separate email I’m enclosing the Aspartame Resource Guide which will give you detoxification, books and even the history of how this chemical poison was marketed through the political chicanery of Don Rumsfeld, and was never proven safe scientifically.

I have put together both neurosurgeon Russell Blaylock’s report as well as Dr. H. J. Roberts, and other case histories in one email.  If you can get this report to their physicians and them, of course, the physicians will understand. http://www.mpwhi.com/new_report_at_neurology_conference.htm

Also, I would like to introduce you to Jim McDonald of the UK Aspartame Awareness Campaign – bigmac2@freenetname.co.uk In the UK you can get Cori’s film from Namaste Publishing, info@namastepublishing.co.uk

You can also subscribe to the Aspartame Information List on www.mpwhi.com Scroll down to banners.

Please let me know if you can get your family off this poison and how they do, or when they get well. Also, be sure to give them a copy of this Aspartame Resource Guide with detoxification and other helpful information.

All my best,
Betty

Dear Dr Betty Martini,

My name is Jenna R, my mother Shona K suffers from MS.  She was diagnosed possibly in her twenties with symptoms of this disease but did not appear apparent enough to be considered full blown MS.  She is now in her late fifties and about a couple of years ago she appeared to show a decline in her mobility.  She then endured a stressful separation from my dad which resulted in a rapid decline in her health.  She was signed off from work for a bout 1 year due to her re-occurring bouts but has since been able to return to work January this year.  Although, she is able to work she is still has problems with mobility and the occasional bout.  I read a few years ago about the possibility that Aspartame in the diet can cause this disease.

If I think back to when I was younger my mother consumed a lot of Coke a cola and various fizzy drinks.  I suffered from soft teeth and did not consume these products very often and stayed away from anything that was sweet.  My sister is a Lupus sufferer and I also read that there may be a connection with Aspartame and this disease with MS passed on genetically.

I have concerns for both my mother and my sister as they still consume sweet products which more than likely contain this substance.  I have always thought that perhaps my mothers condition worsens due to her diet but have not been able to get this through to her.

I read your note on rense.com about a patient called Cori Brackett.  Although, my mothers condition may be different to this person but wondered if there may be a connection to Aspartame with my mothers condition?

Dr’s do not seem to give any positive feedback here in Scotland UK and wondered if you could give any suggestions?

Regards

Jenna R.

Infectious Disease: annoying or life threatening?

Link: http://eutils.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&id=21113897&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks

Excerpt:

Infectious diseases can affect the previously healthy adolescent as well as
severely immuno-compromised intensive care unit patients. The effects may be
merely annoying, but in many cases they can become life-threatening. The
immediate impact of infectious diseases on everyday life can be seen with
Helicobacter pylori, which infects more than 50% of the global population,
or Borrelia burgdorferi, which causes a major tick-borne disease in Europe
and America. On the other hand, in less-developed countries, infections
causing diarrhea are still among the most important causes of death -
especially in children. Research in Medical Microbiology ranges from
attempts to better understand the physiology and ecology of the causative
agents to epidemiological typing of clinical isolates. It covers the mutual
interactions of pathogenic microbes as well as the interplay between
microorganism and host. Among the most pressing problems in medical
microbiology is the emerging of antibiotic resistances. In recent years,
both Gram-positive bacteria – with the first description of vancomycin
resistant Staphylococcus aureus – as well as Gram-negative species – e.g.
with the emergence of extended spectrum beta-lactamases – have seen new and
dramatic occurrences of resistance.
Consequently, the detection and characterization of new antimicrobial
compounds is, more than ever, an important task. All these topics are
covered by the research articles compiled in this Special Issue of the
Journal of Basic Microbiology. Further, the publication of this Special
Issue should underline the importance of “Basic Microbiology” for “Medical
Microbiology”: The sometimes existing gap between basic research and
application needs to be bridged urgently and in a time-saving manner as
often as possible. We are convinced that only combined efforts of experts in
both areas will allow us to tackle future’s problems in infectious diseases
efficiently ((c) 2010 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim).

Zeolites: Can they treat cancer?

The world is clearly becoming increasingly toxic and everyone is looking for more support for their  detoxification program. Longevity Plus offers two forms of zeolite, ACZ as the oral spray, which is where we start everyone with two bottles working up to 10 sprays QID. Then many are switched to the far stronger ZeoGold, which has the same amount of Zeolite in each pre-measured dose capsule that MUST be hydrated before consuming. Always open the ZeoGold premeasured dosage capsules and add to 2-4 ounces of water to allow it to hydrate before consuming.  Watch for an increase in your exercise tolerance as we all have toxins that chelation alone cannot handle. 

ACZ is also ideal for small children, as the level of lead in bones at birth today averages 1000 times higher than any bone lead levels 400 years ago. Bone remodels slowly so meaningful detoxification is a LENGTHY process, as bones in adults take 10- 15 years to remodel. The ACZ spray bottle version is documented to increase excretion of mercury and also is convenient to use topically to aid healing of skin injuries or poorly healing skin.

The chapter from the HANDBOOK on ZEOLITE, which is edited by the editors of the American Chemical Society, will help you learn more about the many indications for Zeolite with over 110 published references that may convince you that you need to be taking one or two capsules everyday of your life. 

It will be useful to study for yourself what the Sloan Kettering Cancer Center has to say about Zeolite below.

Excerpt:

Zeolites are minerals that contain mainly aluminium and silicon compounds combined with water molecules. They are used as drying agents, detergents, and as water and air purifiers. Zeolites have been marketed as dietary supplements for hangover and for cancer treatment. Since they bind with other substances and may also neutralize stomach acid, they can interfere with many drugs when used together. When inhaled, Zeolite dust can cause certain type of lung cancer. There is no published human data to support the use of Zeolites for cancer treatment.

Purported Uses
•  Treatment of diarrhea
A drug containing zeolite was developed for diarrhea in Cuba 
•  Anticancer therapy
In vitro and animal studies suggest anticancer properties, but there is no clinical data to validate use of Zeolites for cancer. 
•  Antioxidant
Animal studies showed that Zeolites may have antioxidant properties 
•  Immunoenhancer
Data from animal studies demonstrated that zeolites can both stimulate and suppress the immune system

Special Point
A company has filed a U.S. patent application on using a form of man-made zeolite as a cancer drug. Data submitted were based on lab, plant, and animal studies. The patent filing said the substance must be injected directly into the tumor. This means it has no benefits if taken by mouth. Since it will cost too much money to develop the product as a drug so the company decided to sell it as a dietary supplement. Zeolites have not been studied as a cancer drug in human clinical trials.

Possible Cause Of Bowel Disease?

Full article: http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/196744.php

Excerpt:

A possible cause of irritable bowel syndrome has been traced to a small piece of RNA that blocks a substance protecting the colon membrane, leading to hostile conditions that can produce diarrhea, bloating and chronic abdominal pain.

New research shows that this RNA segment sends signals that stop the activity of the gene that produces glutamine, an amino acid. Previous research has linked a shortage of glutamine in the gut with the seepage of toxins and bacteria through the intestinal wall, irritating nerves and creating disease symptoms.

Scientists say that trying to generate glutamine in the disordered bowel by silencing this RNA segment could open up a whole new way of thinking about treating the diarrhea-predominant type of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). In the meantime, they are making plans to conduct a clinical trial to see if glutamine supplements could also reduce common IBS symptoms

This form of the disorder is characterized by diarrhea and bloating as well as chronic abdominal pain that is difficult to treat. About a third of IBS patients have the diarrhea-predominant type, another third experience consistent constipation, and the rest experience alternating bouts of diarrhea and constipation.

ABC Responds to Article on Herb-Drug Interactions

Linda’s comment:  Amazing isn’t it that a group of doctors would embarrass themselves so tragically by the many mistakes they have made regarding Herb-Drug Interactions in Journal of the American College of Cardiology? They expect us to respect their avenues of treatment plans with using such poor judgement on making statements like they did with this article. 
This is why I preach to all of you to do research if you are not sure about taking an herb with a pharmaceutical.  Yes of course there are herbs that will react differently when taking pharmaceutical drugs.  However, there are times it can compliment one to the other.  People who are on Chemotherapy/Radiation can and do take the “organic” Agaricus Mushroom from Brazil.  In fact we have seen many cancer patients on chemo respond more quickly when taking this Brazil mushroom.  Mushrooms are not mushrooms are not mushrooms AND you need to make sure what country the mushroom came from.  Most mushrooms come from China and/or Japan and these do NOT have the potency that the mushroom from Brazil has.  This is just one example of how pharmaceuticals can work with a choice of treatment which is stepping outside of the box. 
 
Know your products.

Excerpt:

 (Austin, TX) At least several times per year an article is published in a medical journal that purports to provide health professionals and the public with useful information on the safety of herbs and herbal dietary supplements. Instead, what sometimes occurs is an article written by people with apparently little to no expertise in the subject area of herbal medicine and medicinal plant research and likewise apparently peer reviewed—if peer reviewed at all—by reviewers with little botanical knowledge or expertise. Yesterday, the Journal of the American College of Cardiology published such an article.1

This particular article has so many flaws and errors that it is difficult to know where to begin to critically review it.

 

Gluten sensitivity

Dear FACT members:

Gluten sensitivity, does everyone have some tendency to this common affliction? It is great to have gluten free foods becoming widely available and Harvard admitting this is hard to rule in or out. Not everyone has the classic symptoms yet this can be contributing to poor health for many people. Continued

Formaldehyde Facts

DOn’t forget …from the Formaldehyde Institute other names it is known

Quaternium-15 is in almost EVERY cosmetic and hair care product
 
When we pick up a product at the local grocery store, most of us like to think we are getting something that has been tested and proven to be safe.  After all, we have laws to protect our health and safety, don’t we?  Actually, the government has very limited power to regulate manufacturers, or require testing of their products.
 
Here are some disturbing facts:
 
A product that kills 5-% of lab animals through ingestion or inhalation can still receive the federal regulatory designation non-toxic .  Of the 17,000 chemicals that appear in common household products, only 30% have been adequately tested for their negative effects on our health; less than 10% have been tested for their effect on the nervous system; and nothing is known about the combined effects of these chemicals when mixed within our bodies.  No law requires manufacturers to list the exact ingredients on the package label.
Personal care product refers to just about anything we use to clean our bodies or make ourselves look or smell good.  The closest thing to a regulatory agency for the personal care industry is the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and their power is extremely limited.
Here are more unsettling facts regarding personal care products:
 
The FDA cannot regulate a personal care product until after it is released into the marketplace.  Neither personal care products nor their ingredients are reviewed or approved before they are sold to the public.
 
The FDA cannot require companies to do safety testing on their personal products before they are sold to the public.
 
The FDA cannot require recalls of harmful personal care products from the marketplace.
 
The National Institute of Occupational Safety and health (NIOSH) analyzed 2983 chemicals used in personal care products.  The results were as follows:
 
884 of the chemicals were toxic
314 caused biological mutation
218 caused reproductive complications
778 caused acute toxicity
148 caused tumors
376 caused skin and eye irritations.
