To back up these allegations about Nutrasweet, there's a large body of evidence in Mission Possible's possession that accurately documents
history of aspartame from its initial discovery to its politically-engineered approval. That a product with so many known health risks continues to be allowed in over 9000 commonly consumed foods, beverages and medical products, is, well, food for some very disturbing thought.
Over years it has been demonstrated that aspartame is a neurotoxic agent and that it interacts with other drugs and vaccinations in unexpected, harmful ways. For example, in one set of discovered documents, Searle conducted Nutrasweet experiments in six third world countries (1983-1984). During that period, some of subjects who were given Nutrasweet developed brain tumors and others started to have seizures.
The bottom line is that large numbers of people who were asked to consume Nutrasweet in early Searle studies came down with brain and nervous disorders. The damaging results from these studies were statistically significant and yet, for reasons that are now becoming obvious, FDA was not advised.
In 1999, an aspartame study was done by Dr. Peter Nunn at King's College in England. Based on results, Dr. Nunn concluded that: "…it is possible that aspartame breakdown product may be capable of enhancing rate of malignant progression of preexisting…tumors in brain". These results validated those of famed neuroscientist Dr. John Olney, who had also determined that there was a connection between brain tumors and aspartame.
Currently, about seventy percent of adults and forty percent of children consume aspartame in one form or another. Coincidentally, brain tumors in United States have been steadily on rise since early 1980s when aspartame was approved.
In a powerful video documentary called "Sweet Misery: A Poisoned World", aspartame investigator Cori Brackett pieces together key interviews with doctors, scientists, attorneys, and FDA investigators. Most troubling is body of evidence pointing to fact that Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld used his considerable political influence to cause FDA to approve aspartame, knowingly putting hundreds of millions of people at risk.
So here it is in a nutshell: if you consume any product that contains aspartame (AKA: "Nutrasweet") you are in fact consuming a poisonous chemical known for its ill-effects on human body. If you eat or drink products containing Nutrasweet (AKA aspartame) you're just asking for it. For sake of your health and for sake of those who love you and want to see you around for a long time, please stop. Read label. If it says "Nutrasweet" or "aspartame", reach for something else.
