Ok, let me start with the fact that I have been studying this particular culprit since 1991. Quite a while huh.
I received a sheet of paper with some basic information on it from one of my mentors. I had never heard of the product before that time; however, once I read that paper, I became almost obsessed with finding out how it was that the company was allowed to sell it for human consumption.
I need to go back over some paperwork I have had for all those years, and you all know I have moved a lot so there are still some boxes I have to check through, but when I do find bits and pieces, I will be adding them here, along with the information I have on hand.
There is one article from a child who did her summer project on the lethal dangers of this bad boy! She was one smart cookie and documented every step of her discovery. She was, as I was, interested in finding out why our government allowed this product to be used in our foods after knowing it was killing or seriously harming so very many people.
Also, some of you know about my sister in law from my posts on the old Myst. For those who don't know, my sweet SIL was healthy as a horse (so to speak lol); but, she developed a headache that became her entire world. She went to doctor after doctor and underwent way too many tests, but, still they could not figure out what was wrong with her.
I asked her if she used aspartame. She said yes as she was dieting (constantly ;-). I asked her to give it up. She said no. This went on for those three years. When she finally couldn't stand another day of it, she agreed to stop. Within a week, her headaches were gone.
Now, I can not tell you how fortunate she was! There are many who never made it through what she did for as long as it went on.
The man who started a website on the dangers, is now dead. So many he interviewed are now dead. His family has carried on and from the looks of it, the last time I went in to that site, a great many others have jumped on that wagon and are trying to get the message out.
I hope to be able to help in some way.
I, myself, get violent headaches when I eat as little as a teaspoon of Yogurt if it has aspartame in it. I always know when hubby accidently grabs the wrong one.
Please, if anyone has information to share, here is the place to post it.
