ARE YOU AWARE OF THIS POISON IN THE FOOD CHAIN...
For those who aren’t aware there has been a poison in the food chain now for going on nearly 30 yrs…it’s name is Aspartame…and it alters its function once ingested.
A couple of years ago a friend was diagnosed with a thyroid problem and she was considering at the doctor’s request an operation. When I asked her if she drank diet soft drinks she laughed and said ‘yes, 2 cans a day at work’...then asked why I asked.
I told her then about Aspartame and mailed her some scientific information on this additive. I also checked with another friend who is a Scientist and she told me that this poison was discovered by another scientist breaking the golden rule of a laboratory….he ate his lunch at his work desk and spilt a little of the substance on his lunch…ate it, had no side effects, noticed the sweet taste and from that developed the substance into artificial sweetener which has been added to food/drinks since the late 1970’s.
If you would like to know more about the symptoms this poison creates in the body you can read them here where there is also a link that will take you to another page of the same site which will explain What It Is (Aspartame that is) and how it alters its composition within the body….and, it does not get eliminated from the body like most other additives…it builds up in the fat cells and becomes Aspartame poisoning bringing on all sorts of symptoms.
As for my friend….well she stopped drinking the diet soft drinks, checked her cupboards…threw out 7 different food stuffs containing the artificial sweetener including yoghurt from her refrigerator and within 2 weeks her symptoms had gone.
She returned to the doctor who did further tests and who was amazed that her problem had cleared up. The doctor asked her what she had done so she told the doctor about the Aspartame. Surprisingly, her doctor had never heard of it…nor had ever been warned about this poison in the food chain. My friend then handed over the information I had sent her to that doctor who then started treating her patients with renewed knowledge. Needless to say my friend did not need the operation.
I hope this information can help you, your family & friends who may not be aware that this little additive may be what is causing their health problems.
I also add here that if you have health problems do not avoid seeing your doctor based on this information alone….by all means do see your doctor and take their advice…but also mention to them your new found knowledge of Aspartame and if they are not aware of it….give them the links and information so that they can also follow up with further research…doctors are not always told by the medical authorities what is being foistered upon people by those higher up the ladder and in the pharmaceutical world.
It seems to mean more to some businesses benefit to keep people in a state of bad health than to keep their buying public healthy. Some seem to have a mind-set of Unhealthy Society = Healthy Economy….to my way of looking at it…that is putting the worth of money ahead of the worth of humans….and that is evil.

Chris I applaud you for this, although aware of this detail personally, many are not and this shit is deadly. on ya mate. :)
C J Lewis replied
Had to put this up Max…have seen first hand the damage it does to others…my friend in Mountains for a start…although she is very well now and her husband who has Parkinson’s has also improved since they stopped using the products with this poison in. Thanks for commenting on this…very appreciated…just hope others read this too and check out their cupboards/fridge and get rid of this toxin from their lives :)
Paul Stephen ...
Interesting piece Chris , have heard about this ,not the name though. There is so much in so called healthier products and the effects are usually only revealed after years, thanks my friend. Paul :)))
C J Lewis replied
You’re welcome Paul…this is something, I feel, that everyone, particularly those with children, need to know about…it’s a baddy. You are right in saying some healthier products too…they are putting this toxin in many food stuffs that people believe is healthy for them…it’s terrible what is being done and needs to be brought to attention then people can make a stand against it by just refusing to ingest those products. Thanks for commenting Paul…appreciated :))xx

Good work CJ. I had an very indepth discussion about this with a friend of mine who has done research as well. He found so many things that are harmful to some degree that you are almost afraid to eat! I think it is wise to do what we can and giving up diet soda is a tough one for me but one that I have promised myself I will do. I was going to drink crystal light instead but … quess what … no good either! It is hard to find a substitute that I will also enjoy. So far my best opinion has been to switch to orange tea and green tea which I drink at home. However, the options at work are harder to find unless I want to bring a gallon of tea to work for myself. Any ideas?

C J Lewis replied
Hi Judi, yes your friend is right…I worked in UK for 11months on scientific research for BAT and what I learnt from that was astonishing to say the least…to the point I only ever cook fresh food using no preservatives and stand in the grocery shops reading the ingredients before even putting anything in the trolley. A good drink, that is good for you and refreshing that my mum use to give us as kids was Lemon Barley Water…sure there would be a recipe for it somewhere on the net…I’ll have a look in my old cook books and if I find one will let you know…barley is good soul food grain…another things I drink sometimes is plain old water with lemon juice squeezed into it…good for the entire system as lemon is a natural antiseptic for the stomach…as well as good for the skin…although it’s deemed as acidic…it is alkaline…which is another things people should make sure they do…keep their alkaline/acid balances in the correct balance…too much acid foods are also bad for the system and cause health problems…will do a writing on that too soon :) Thanks for commenting on this…appreciated my friend :)xxoo

glad you posted this C J
I can tell you from personal experience ( some years ago ) that aspartame is poison.
Terrible affects from it.

Good for YOU, CJ, been trying to get this info out to as many clients, friends and family as possible – Aspartame is not unique in the poison department, the new Splenda is the same kind of poison and artificial sweetener (claiming to be made with sugar). There is a great book called “Sweet Deception” by Dr. Joseph Mercola (he also has a website – www.mercola.com).
C J Lewis replied
It certainly is one that people need to be made aware of Tammy…good to hear you have been warning your clients, friends & family…terrible what they do to people. Thanks also for the info on “Sweet Deception” will see if I can borrow that from library and read it :)

See people, I have said it for years, people think its okay to consume artifical and substitute chemically made foods rather than eating natural foods and just less of them.
Its a sad state of affairs where even after the FDA refused this Aspartame for 16 years yet eventually some a**hole paid em enough money to push it thru! Happens all the time!
I never drink /eat diet anything, cause whatever there using to make me get the same taste as regular more than likely its chemically created. I wont even eat margarine over butter. Low fat ice cream, geez no way, give me what i want as it naturally comes and let me enjoy it, just eat less of it! Deli salads…NO WAY!! grocery stores told me, no they dont make them daily there, their brought in, in huge tubs, so you know theirs additives injected in them to preserve and make them look good longer….gross! Oh and god forbid meat in supermarkets like WALMART, and others who use carbon monoxide to airtight their meats when wrapping them….is it just me or cant you tell that the meat doesnt taste right?! it alters the food composition, feels rubbery, tastes rubbery, its gross, they may be cheapier but i’m worth the extra 1.00 to get safer meat elsewhere.
People always wonder how come ppl use to live much longer so long ago, well here it is…they killed it the same day, they made it the same day and ate it the same day….end of story! LOL
Be a label reader, if you cant pronounce it then dont consume it! As time goes on more and more substitutes will be created, and frankly until side effects show up we never know till someone has died and if then, usually their have to be several death related reports till anybody even touches it.
Its like those perscription commericals: they play them up then at the end say: some side effects can be diahherra, stiffness of joints , rapid heartbeat , migraines, and a few cases reported of death etc…etc…etc…Why would i want to take something that can make me worse or might kill me??? LOL
Judi, bring it to work!
And folks dont ever let office samantics discourage you from bringing your own home drink/foods to work, label it and be safe. If they dont like it, work where your employers want you to be safe and healthy. If there are food machines in your place of work that have unsafe foods, have a meeting and get the employer to make changes.
When we as a people stop buying products that are unhealthy, companies have to start listening or lose millions.
C J Lewis replied
Thanks for putting this here Lisa…everything you have said is so true….I stand in supermarkets reading what the ingredients are before even putting them in my trolley…and I cook everything fresh…the taste for a start is fantastic of fresh foods and so much healthier for the body.
What you have said here: When we as a people stop buying products that are unhealthy, companies have to start listening or lose millions. Is so true…unfortunately some people are just too bone lazy to look after themselves properly…and are usually the first ones to whinge…or sue companies…when their health deteriorates due to their own slackness.

this is brilliant…my respect to you !
C J Lewis replied
Thank you aRae…felt people needed to be educated on the dangers of this additive…please do let your family, friends & neighbours know of this toxin…spread the word and help to heal some of the health problems of people of this world :)
