The Michael J. Fox Connection, Parkinson’s Disease Caused By Aspartame?

The cause of Michael Fox’s Parkinson’s disease is always side-stepped by the media. Fox’s disease is not yet politically correct to attack. It would get most reporters fired.

Throughout the 1980’s, Michael did commercials for Pepsico, and he promoted Diet Pepsi cola exclusively in the latter years of his contract.

It is believed that he became an ardent consumer of Diet Pepsi throughout this period (even off-set). Then, in 1991, Michael was diagnosed with young-onset Parkinson’s disease. It would be seven years before he told the public about his diagnosis, so the link has been missed by most people.

In 2000, Michael founded the Michael J. Fox Foundation, which was supposed to help discover the cause and cure for Parkinson’s disease. Various groups have sent information to the foundation about the link between aspartame (found in diet colas) and Parkinson’s disease, but they have been ignored.

The group instead donated $175,000,000 to researchers of Parkinson’s disease, while wholly ignoring the existing information about aspartame, just as most researchers have. The foundation is yet another organization which apparently believes that funneling even more money into the petrochemical cartel will help to find an elusive cure, for something that would require an admission of guilt to cure, and the loss of a billion dollar diet drinks industry.

The chemical industry is the problem, not the solution. Their profits from treatment regimens soar higher with each new Michael that they create.

Meanwhile, they continue promoting diet drinks as the healthy alternative, because sugars, after all, are bad.

Michael J. Fox, Parkinson’s and Aspartame

ASPARTAME is an excitotoxin that destroys the brain and body. 

Aspartame is marketed under the AminoSweet, NutraSweet, Equal and Sugar Twin brands.

There are over 92 different health side effects associated with aspartame consumption. It seems surreal, but true. How can one chemical create such chaos such as seizures, eye damage and vision loss, confusion, severe migraines, tremors, depression, anxiety attacks, insomnia, etc.

Ralph Walton, MD, Chairman, The Center for Behavioral Medicine showed that the only studies which didn’t find problems with aspartame where those funded by the manufacturer (Monsanto).

In 1985, Donald Rumsfeld, CEO of Searle was the force behind Aspartame being placed on the market.

Given the agreement amongst independent scientists about the toxicity of aspartame, the only question was whether the formaldehyde exposure from aspartame caused the toxicity. That question has now been largely answered because of research in the late 1990s.

The following facts shown by recent scientific research:

Aspartame (nutrasweet) breaks down into methanol (wood alcohol).

Methanol quickly converts to formadehyde in the body.

Formaldehyde causes gradual and eventually severe damage to the neurological system, immune system and causes permanent genetic damage at extremely low doses.

Methanol from alcoholic beverages and from fruit and juices does not convert to formaldehyde and cause damage because there are protective chemicals in these traditionally ingested beverages.

The most recent independent research in Europe demonstrates that ingestion of small amounts of aspartame leads to the accumulation of significant levels of formaldehyde (bound to protein) in organs (liver, kidneys, brain) and tissues.

Excitotoxic amino acids such as the one which is immediately released from aspartame likely increases the damage caused by the formaldehyde.

Aspartame Side Effects

There are over 92 different health side effects associated with aspartame consumption. It seems surreal, but true. How can one chemical create such chaos?

Aspartame dissolves into solution and can therefore travel throughout the body and deposit within any tissue. The body digests aspartame unlike saccharin, which does not break down within humans.

The multitude of aspartame side effects are indicative to your genetic individuality and physical weaknesses. It is important to put two and two together, nonetheless, and identify which side effects aspartame is creating within you.

Side Effects

The components of aspartame can lead to a number of health problems, as you have read. Side effects can occur gradually, can be immediate, or can be acute reactions.

Ask Dr Hull Forum

According to Lendon Smith, M.D. there is an enormous population suffering from side effects associated with aspartame, yet have no idea why drugs, supplements and herbs don’t relieve their symptoms. Then, there are users who don’t ‘appear’ to suffer immediate reactions at all. Even these individuals are susceptible to the long-term damage caused by excitatory amino acids, phenylalanine, methanol, and DKP.

Reactions and side effects of aspartame include:

Eye

• blindness in one or both eyes
• decreased vision and/or other eye problems such as: blurring, bright flashes, squiggly lines, tunnel vision, decreased night vision
• pain in one or both eyes
• decreased tears
• trouble with contact lenses
• bulging eyes

Ear

• tinnitus – ringing or buzzing sound
• severe intolerance of noise
• marked hearing impairment

Neurologic

• epileptic seizures
• headaches, migraines and (some severe)
• dizziness, unsteadiness, both
• confusion, memory loss, both
• severe drowsiness and sleepiness
• paresthesia or numbness of the limbs
• severe slurring of speech
• severe hyperactivity and restless legs
• atypical facial pain
• severe tremors

Psychological/Psychiatric

• severe depression
• irritability
• aggression
• anxiety
• personality changes
• insomnia
• phobias

Chest

• palpitations, tachycardia
• shortness of breath
• recent high blood pressure

Gastrointestinal

• nausea
• diarrhea, sometimes with blood in stools
• abdominal pain
• pain when swallowing

Skin and Allergies

• itching without a rash
• lip and mouth reactions
• hives
• aggravated respiratory allergies such as asthma

Endocrine and Metabolic

• loss of control of diabetes
• menstrual changes
• marked thinning or loss of hair
• marked weight loss
• gradual weight gain
• aggravated low blood sugar (hypoglycemia)
• severe PMS

Other

• frequency of voiding and burning during urination
• excessive thirst, fluid retention, leg swelling, and bloating
• increased susceptibility to infection

Additional Symptoms of Aspartame 

Toxicity include the most critical symptoms of all:

• death
• irreversible brain damage
• birth defects, including mental retardation
• peptic ulcers
• aspartame addiction and increased craving for sweets
• hyperactivity in children
• severe depression
• aggressive behavior
• suicidal tendencies

Aspartame may trigger, mimic, or cause the following illnesses:

• Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
• Epstein-Barr
• Post-Polio Syndrome
• Lyme Disease
• Grave’s Disease
• Meniere’s Disease
• Alzheimer’s Disease
• ALS
• Epilepsy
• Multiple Sclerosis (MS)
• EMS
• Hypothyroidism
• Mercury sensitivity from Amalgam fillings
• Fibromyalgia
• Lupus
• non-Hodgkins
• Lymphoma
• Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD)

These are not allergies or sensitivities, but diseases and disease syndromes. Aspartame poisoning is commonly misdiagnosed because aspartame symptoms mock textbook ‘disease’ symptoms, such as Grave’s Disease.

Aspartame changes the ratio of amino acids in the blood, blocking or lowering the levels of serotonin, tyrosine, dopamine, norepinephrine, and adrenaline. Therefore, it is typical that aspartame symptoms cannot be detected in lab tests and on x-rays. Textbook disorders and diseases may actually be a toxic load as a result of aspartame poisoning.

Ever gone to the doctor with real, physical symptoms, but he/she can’t find the cause? Well, it’s probably your diet, your environment, or both.

Aspartame is the common denominator for over 92 different health symptoms at the root of modern disease. The Aspartame Detoxification Program demonstrates the most effective way to reverse disease symptoms is removing the underlying cause – aspartame.

I counsel aspartame victims worldwide and have witnessed nine out of 10 clients restore their health by following the Aspartame Detoxification Program. Begin with detoxifying your body of all residual chemical toxins from aspartame’s chemical make up of phenylalanine, aspartic acid and methanol and their toxic by-products, and see if any adverse health symptoms remain. 

Try the Aspartame Detoxification Program, and within 30 days your symptoms should disappear.

Steps:

• Remove all sugar-free products with aspartame from your diet.

What can you do about aspartame side effects?

Set an example by changing your diet.

• Tell everyone you know.
• Talk to the schools and day care centers. Offer to speak at parent-teachers meetings.
• Contact your local, state, and Federal government representatives.
• If you see someone with a diet drink, ask if they have had any of the typical aspartame side effects.
• Spread the word at your work.
• Distribute the Aspartame Consumer Safety Network and Pilot’s Hotline
• Tell your doctor about the scientific research available proving the negative side effects of aspartame.
• Register a complaint with the FDA, the FAA, the NutraSweet Company about aspartame poisoning.
• Return all food products with aspartame, opened or unopened, to your grocer. Tell him/her the products make you sick. The grocer can return them to the manufacturer for a store refund. The manufacturer should get the message. So, will the grocer.
• Spread the word on computer networks.
• Publish articles in newsletters at your church, place of work, or neighborhood association.
• Set a personal example for health and wellness.

The approval of the artificial sweetener aspartame (E951) was the most contested in FDA history. The approval was not based on any scientific grounds but was granted due to political and financial pressure. 

http://articles.mercola.com/sites/art…

Aspartame was first ‘discovered’ in 1965 by Searle, a drug company based in Chicago. The FDA finally approved aspartame in 1981, even though scientific research had clearly shown that aspartame caused brain cancer in lab animals.

http://naturalnews.com/011804.html

The tests that Searle used to determine the so-called safety of aspartame were severely flawed. Searle used unscientific lab practices, falsified data and withheld crucial information during the FDA approval process. 

Because aspartame caused brain tumors in laboratory animals, it poses a real cancer risk to humans as well. Cancer is increasing in western countries and will soon be the leading cause of death.

http://medicalnewstoday.com/articles/…

http://wnho.net/new_aspartame_studies…

Aspartame (E951) is now being used in over 6000 products and millions of people worldwide use the sweetener on a daily basis. In addition to causing cancer, aspartame also causes many other health problems including obesity, diabetes, MS, epilepsy, brain disorders, migraines, ADHD, etc.

Shocking aspartame documentary ‘Sweet Misery’:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c0UDey…

The US Department of Health has recorded 92 (!) symptoms related to aspartame use. In fact, over 80% of all complaints filed with the FDA are aspartame related!

http://321recipes.com/symptoms.html

Aspartame breaks down into three toxic components: 

1. Methanol. 
This is poisonous alcohol. In the body, methanol breaks down into formaldehyde, which is a poison.

2. Phenylalanine.
This decreases the amount serotonin in your brain, which leads to mood swings (depressions) and an increased appetite! That is why aspartame is one of the main causes for the current obesity epidemic.

http://naturalnews.com/001253.html

3. Aspartic acid.
This is a neurological toxin comparable to MSG.

Contrary to what so-called ‘health experts’ claim, aspartame is NOT safe! 

Do yourself a big favor and remove this poisonous chemical out of your diet for 60 days and discover how your health will improve dramatically! 

“My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.” 
Hosea 4:6 (KJV)

Brand names for aspartame:
AminoSweet, NutraSweet, Equal, NatraTaste, Canderel, Spoonful, Equal-Measure, etc.

Caution! Aspartame is now being replaced in many products by sucralose (Splenda, E955) and/or Neotame (E961), but these sweeteners are also highly toxic!
