Dear Citizen for Health,
An article on AlterNet by Alison Rose Levy, a CFH ally, regarding the science and the health risks of aspartame is generating some interesting debate. We encourage interested CFHers to check it out, and add your voices to the case for questioning the validity of the claim that aspartame is completely safe.

Why Coke is a Joke—New Ad Campaign Defends Aspartame
The Woodrow C. Monte methanol/formaldehyde toxicity paradigm is that concentrations of ADH1 enzyme, well known to exist inside the blood vessel wall cells in specific tissues, quickly turn methanol into formaldehyde inside the vessel cells, in humans only -- the highly reactive formaldehyde diffuses to penetrate adjacent tissue cells, binding to DNA, RNA, and proteins, attracting macrophages, which die, creating complex, expanding micro lesions, leading to many modern "diseases of civilization", Alzheimer's, arthritis, diabetes, multiple sclerosis, lupus -- as well as later cancers -- also serious birth defects in the fetal brain in the fourth week of pregnancy, spinal bifida and autism.
ReplyDeleteAspartame is 11% methanol, 22 mg per can of diet drink -- similar levels of methanol come from wood and cigarette smoke, heated and canned fruits juices vegetables, fermented and smoked foods, some wines and liquors, vehicle fuels, many cleaners and solvents, chemical medical autopsy mortuary facilities, heated wood in particleboard and paper factories, and more.
WC Monte submits robust evidence for multiple sclerosis, which he concludes proves methanol to be the proximate toxic cause, since ADH1 enzyme is within the cells of the inner linings of brain blood vessels, the Purkinje cells of the vermis of the cerebellum, and rods and cones of the retina -- ADH1 quickly turns methanol into free floating formaldehyde within these cells, disrupting the blood brain barrier.
