OK, I found the reference I had in my mailbox. It follows in total the following confirming links:
http://members.tripod.com/~aspartame/gulfwar.htm The major soft drink companies shipped free Diet Drinks (Businessweek, Dec.'90) to our Desert Storm troops, where they broke down in storage into highly toxic substances. The symptoms reported by the sufferers of "Gulf War Syndrome" mimic the ones of those reporting problems associated with Aspartame use here ... but, the military personnel symptoms are greater because they were drinking/eating "expired Diet Pepsi and then some!" Since Aspartame is capable of changing the DNA (in lab tests), birth defects in offspring can be readily addressed. Family members are also experiencing illness, possibly from their continued use of these products. What is the real reason behind Gulf War Syndrome? Based on volumes of available research, we believe it was what they were eating and drinking in extreme desert heat. http://www.glinx.com/~tonym/nutras~1.htm Some charge that aspartame may even the villain behind Gulf War Syndrome, a cluster of illnesses and behaviors which still have eluded manym epidemiological investigators and physicians. http://www.cybernaute.com/earthconcert2000/FeedbksAspartame.htm They say that the GULF WAR SYNDROME is in part being traced to Aspertame in DIET PEPSI... apparently Pepsi gave thousands of cases of Diet Pepsi to the military for the troops in the Gulf War.. these sat outside in 100+ degree temperatures which was the problem, when Aspartame reaches a certain temperature it converts to Formaldhyde and Methenol so when the troops drank Pepsi they were injesting these two by-products and we all know what they use Formaldhyde and Methenol for.. This can be verified by the fact that very few troops on the front lines got sick, it was almost entirely the support troops, the ones who had access to the diet soft drinks who got sick.. http://www.pprune.org/ubb/NonCGI/Forum1/HTML/005067.html Because military participants in the Gulf War were rehydrating with Diet Drinks furnished free by the soft drink companies, it is likely that Desert Storm Syndrome may simply be serious reactions to Aspartame. In desert heat the breakdown products reach toxic proportions much more quickly ... leaving a virtual witches brew in place of the original chemical sweetener. Marshall Subject: Aspartame Disease...one of many world plagues... Date: Wed, 22 Dec 1999 10:30:35 EST From: planetn...@aol.com To: undisclosed-recipients:; Pharm. & Upjohn: Congratulations! Since Aspartame Disease, a world plague, probably destined to be one of the largest epidemics in world history, is suffered by so many consumers in 100 countries, I was wondering how Monsanto would ever pay the victims. As one attorney said: "Tobacco will pale against aspartame"! Aspartame marketed by Monsanto (NutraSweet/ Equal/Spoonful) is a deadly neurotoxin. According to Alex Constantine in NutraPoison (www.dorway.com) aspartame was once listed with the pentagon in an inventory of prospective biochemical warfare weapons submitted to Congress. At 86 degrees it breaks down to a witches brew of toxins. That's way diet pop sitting on pallets in the 120 degree Arabian sun during the Gulf War caused so much havoc. The troops were drinking formaldehyde cocktails and its no wonder the symptoms of Desert Storm Syndrome are identical to the FDA report of 92 symptoms from four types of seizures to coma and death. Aspartame also triggers birth defects even when a man uses it at the time of conception according to Dr. Roberts report on aspartame and pregancy (www.dorway.com) so no wonder their wives gave birth to babies with birth defects. Handsome soldier, clear of eye Got to the Gulf, and drink and die And fight to keep our profits high After we've taken your fine young life We'll kill your baby and blind your wife In l986 the Community Nutrition Institute petitioned the FDA to ban aspartame because so many were going blind but the FDA wouldn't hear of it. They really care for Monsanto, and that's why I always call the FDA, Monsanto's Washington Branch Office. Of course, people are still going blind. Wish Monsanto cared but aspartame remains on the market today for the same reasons as tobacco - addiction, profit and greed! Incidently, do check out the Trocho study which you will see on the web page www.dorway.com/nomarkle.html Notice it shows the formaldehyde accumulates in the cells and damages DNA with 50% toxicity in the liver, and substantial amounts in the kidneys, adipose tissue, retina and brain. Makes it cheaper on the family of aspartame victims - they don't have to pay for embalming. Of course, the embalming may be what killed them. But then again aspartame triggers blindness, fibromyalgia, Alzheimers, MS symptoms, Parkinson's, drug interaction, an irregular heart rhythm, etc. It destroys the brain, central nervous system, optic nerve, immune system and ravages every organ in the body. You can see why we estimate that 5 out of 7 on aspartame today already have some of the 92 symptoms on the FDA report (more in Dr. H. J. Roberts books - 1 800 - 814 - 9800) or some disease triggered by this neurotoxin. Be sure to listen to neurosurgeon Russell Blaylock, M.D.'s lecture on www.dorway.com Notice he says that the reactions to aspartame are not allergic but toxic in nature like arsenic and cyanide. Don't worry those I assure you aspartame does have a redeeming value - you can always market it as rat poison. It killed a lot of rats in original studies or gave them astrocytoma brain tumors. Read the secret trade information on www.dorway.com - you see the original manufacturer knew the gun was loaded and admitted "complete conversion to DKP" which is diketopiperazine, the tumor agent. Oh, don't want to leave anything out - aspartame also triggered pancreatic, mammary, testicular, ovarian and uterine tumors. It only triggered grand mal seizures in monkeys! You have to congratulate Monsanto, they definitely are the planet's largest manufacturer of poisons. I just wish they would stop marketing them in foods like aspartame and RBGH. I sure hope Celebrex is also recalled soon. You see, aspartame hardens the synovial fluids and causes horrible joint pain many times misdiagnosed as fibromyalgia which Dr. H. J. Roberts calls a diagnostic wastebucket. So Monsanto thought they would make some more money on the agony they caused by marketing a chemical poison and marketed Celebrex. The problem, however, it can interact with aspartame which originally had a drug application and changes brain chemistry. Both Celebrex and aspartame cause gastrointestinal problems big time so you can see the problem. But I'm more concerned with all the hemorrhaging reported and all the death. I've told the FDA they should have it recalled before more people die, and then they will have to explain why they allowed it on the market so long with people dying from it. As to RBGH, I suppose you heard Robert Cohen on C-Span telling what Monsanto did in that approval and what went on. You can read about Robert on hungerstrike.com and the Notmilk web site. I don't expect RBGH will be on the market too long. That approval sure exposed how Monsanto operates. They sure tried to cover their bases. You probably remember when Dr. John Olney made world news on aspartame. He is the world famous researcher who founded the field of neuroscience called excitotoxicity. He was the discussing the aspartame/brain tumor association. Monsanto has great loyalty in the FDA, the way they get their poisons on the market. Why the former acting FDA Commissioner, Dr. Michael Friedman, actually got on 60 Minutes and defended Monsanto, even though it was the FDA themselves that said not to approve aspartame because of the brain tumor issue. But now that these brain tumors are escalating in the populations Dr. Friedman defended Monsanto. I wonder if they said: "Mike, do this for us, wait around a couple of years and we'll take care of you." If they did they kept their promise. They hired Dr. Friedman in June. Oh, and be sure to read Dr. Blaylock's book: Excitotoxins; The Taste That Kills. (amazon.com) And believe me, they sure do kill - we have a death file! And also be sure to get the January issue of Townsend Letter for Doctors. It has Dr. Roberts article on Aspartame Addiction, 6 pages in small print, probably was a 25 page article. Can you imagine marketing an addicting chemical poison and allowing it to be put in infant and children's products too. We have a list of pediatric drugs with aspartame on www.dorway.com to warn parents. There was a 6 year old on Hardcopy that used some Flintstone vitamins with aspartame and was pronounced dead, and then revived at the E.R. However, she now has brain damage. And we get all kinds of reports of these kids having aspartame seizures and other problems. You might check to see if there are any of your products on www.dorway.com and remove aspartame because you know now aspartame is a deadly addicting sweet poison. Surely, you wouldn't want babies and small children to die. Of course, you shouldn't want anybody to die. But that raises the question - why did you merge with Monsanto? Anyway, congratulations again. I know it will make victims feel better to know there is now more money in the pot. You have no idea how outraged they are at being poisoned! Doctors don't like it either when they find out. You see, Monsanto and the FDA target physicians for misinformation and Monsanto writes the material for the trade organizations they fund. So doctors have been having a very difficult time correlating the problems with the culprit. But be assured we are supplying the physicians with all the records they need to really understand how deadly aspartame is and what it triggers by world renowned physicians. Carry on, but do check out the web sites, especially www.dorway.com, www.holisticmed.com/aspartame, aspartamekills.com and www.presidiotex.com/aspartame. DORway connects to over 200 web sites but you can read about the dangers of this Monsanto poison, aspartame, on at least 20,000 web sites and more are constantly added. Also, be sure to check out the Aspartame Support Group on line and Aspartame Survivors International on line - to support the sick and dying on aspartame. Read the case histories and the suffering caused by a Monsanto. I really don't think anyone could say it any better than Dr. James Bowen who told the FDA aspartame was mass poisoning of the consumer public in more than 70 countries of the world, and all involved in marketing aspartame or keeping it on the market should be criminally prosecuted and the victims paid. Thanks to your merger, I'm sure Monsanto will have now plenty of money to take care of the victims their neurotoxin poisoned!
