  • Not an expert, but experienced
I'm not a dietary scientist. I'm not a doctor. I'm not an expert. I even need a spell check to write this. But I know what I've seen and heard from close friends and relatives. A daughter-in-law was having occasional, unpredictable, and unexplained seizures. Doctors put her on all kinds of medications, but she kept having them. She also was a heavy Diet Coke drinker and imitation sweetener user because of a concerned weight problem. When someone suggested getting away from Aspartame, she gave it a try. The seizures quit and the only ones she's had in the eleven or so years since were mild ones occurring after visiting Las Vegas where Aspartame might be in some of the foods without her knowing it. A close friend is overweight and diabetic. At a doctor's advice she went on a lose-weight effort and substituted artificial sweeteners with Aspartame. Her blood sugar readings went wild. They didn't correlate to what she ate. She felt miserable nearly all the time and some of us wondered if she was considering suicide. My wife suggested eliminating the artificial sweeteners. Her "recovery" was almost immediate and her blood sugar readings became correlated to what she was eating and has remained so for a year or more. I didn't know that Splenda has Aspartame in it. Some years ago I started drinking Splenda sweetened drinks by Talking Rain in an effort to lose weight. I had an extremely painful kidney stone attack. The doctor asked what I had done differently. I told him I was drinking the Splenda Talking Rain drinks. He insisted that couldn't be the cause. The kidney stone resolved itself but I quit the Splenda drinks for about a year. When I resumed drinking them, I got another kidney stone attack in about two weeks time. It too eventually passed and I quit the Splenda drinks for good. I haven't had another attack since. As for Donald Rumsfeld being less than candid, that's consistent with his declaration that the war he was orchestrating in Iraq was not about oil, but that Iraq's oil profits that the war would give them control over would be used to pay for Iraq's restoration that they (he along with our tax money, and Cheney affiliated industries by no-bid contracts) were getting paid enormously to both destroy and restore. These are the people who want to privatize government, eliminate safety controls, complain that government controls take away their "freedom," and claim that the free market will solve all problems--not to mention that they control the free market. I'm not a scientist, doctor, expert, or certified anything but a person who so far as I know can still put a few puzzle pieces together and see what sort of picture is consistently formed. How about you? ... show more

  • An engaging video
It's a very interesting video which explained the facts behind aspartamine in an easy to understand manner. I was a little disappointed it didn't go into the chemical composition very much... as that's central to understanding the problem... but if you know the hazards of methanol and formaldehyde you will appreciate the toxic effects of these substances. A few illustrations of methanol poisoning from news reports wouldn't have gone astray... as most people aren't familiar with it's effects. It took two viewings before it all clicked. Despite this the message is quite clear... a problem exists with this sweetener. This video also puts a spotlight on the political machinations that are driving organisations like the FDA. If you've got family and friends who use aspartamine... get them to start using something safer. This video gives you some useful facts which you can use to convince them. :-) ... show more

  • If you ever need a reason to see why you shouldn't be ingesting the garbage please watch this
Ugh, I have to say I always say 'Do you ever see a Skinny Person using or drinking anything made with that garbage?' about the Pink/ Blue/Yellow so called 'Sugar' packages. While I cannot agree that is the 'cause' of the sudden explosion of Neurological diagnosis' since the Eighties I myself have MS and I have never touch a so called Diet Drink/Soda not even once in my lifetime (and yes I am tall and on the slender size but I eat the way my Grandparents and their Parents did not all of this Chemical Garbage that cause us to be ill). My MS is definitely traced through inheriting the as I call it the 'Genetic Jackpot' of Garbage Genes that can be traced through prior Generations. No other Family Member of this Generation of mine (Brother and three other sets of younger cousins) thank goodness has been afflicted with anything Neurologically but it was my Grandmother who had Lupus hence where I can trace the connection to MS. No matter what the Chemical Sweeteners are killing this Nation. Stop using the Garbage please. What this Documentary and you will see how of course Corporate Greed created this supposed 'Sweetner'. ... show more

  • Excellent DVD - definitely thought provoking...
Lately, I've been researching Aspartame as I am concerned that I am having some side effects from consumption and every day I am seeing it popping up in more and more of the products I have been regularly consuming. First it was my Diet Coke, then my minty Listerine breath strips, then my Wrigley's spearmint chewing gum and it's not even the sugar-free kind! I went to my local drugstore and I see that Aspartame is in the ingredients of all sorts of other medicinal products I didn't know it was in... Even in Children's fruit flavored chewable vitamins! After seeing this movie, I will not eat or drink anything before carefully reading the ingredients list to make sure that Aspartame is not present. I highly recommend this DVD if you want to know more about Aspartame and how our own FDA may be failing in adequately warning us of the risks. ... show more

  • Not sure about the information.
Thought it might give us an answer to my husbands withering hand, but didn't seem to give us the answer. Lots of information, but not sure about it's absolute truth.

  • Poison is not a strong enough word to describe Aspartame
This is a documentary by prominent physicians and others who have done extensive research on the subject. I was diagnosed as having a stroke (had numbness on the whole left side of my body), went through thousands of dollars of medical exams, and they found nothing wrong with me. I stopped chewing sugarless bubble gum (of all things) and within 3 weeks, all my symptoms were gone. Many people find this hard to believe, until they do the research for themselves. This information can be easily found on the internet. Thousands and thousands of people have been sickened by Aspartame. It is a crime that this poison is allowed on the market - expecially in items consumed by pregnant women and children. This DVD is excellent! ... show more
