Cav,
As you requested....
Nutrasweet (Aspartame) has been scientifically linked to
brain tumors, brain cell damage and neurological conditions
such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease. According to
author Russell Blaylock, MD, a practicing, board-certified
neurosurgeon, we are witnessing enormous damage to the
brain and nervous system due to the ever-increasing amount
of Nutrasweet and other excitotoxic subtances added to our
foods.
With detailed accuracy citing well over five hundred
scientific studies, Neurosurgeon Blaylock explores the
"must-know" dangers of these substances being added
indiscriminately to our food supply.
Mike Wallace of "60 Minutes" and his research team used
the book Excitotoxins: The Taste That Kills, as one of their
sources to report on the increasing evidence of a brain tumor
connection. Their December 29, 1996, program didn't,
however, delve into the enormous epidemic of illness caused
by the increasing use of these substances. Dr. Blaylock's
book exposes it all in detail--from the questionable history of
"approvals" in the 1970s and the 1980s to the increasing
body of evidence showing serious brain effects, government
inaction, and industry propaganda and cover-up.
The use of aspartame, hydrolyzed vegetable protein, and
monosodium glutamate in prepared foods and beverages
continues to increase on a yearly basis. Dr. Blaylock clearly
demonstrates that the neurotoxic potential of excitotoxins
such as MSG and aspartame (NUTRASWEET ) is so
overwhelming that it can no longer be ignored.
