Sweet Lies, The Aspartame Issue
Aspartame activists are constantly being attacked because all data are a matter of public record from congressional records to government documents. Now there is even a movie, Sweet Misery: A Poisoned World (www.docworkers.com) that exposes how Don Rumsfeld got aspartame approved even though the FDA said no. Go to this link to see a clip of the movie exposing the politics Rumsfeld used: http://www.soundandfury.tv/pages/Rumsfeld2.html Bullington used the issue of when I lectured for the World Environmental Conference. Someone by the name of Nancy Markle put her name on a post I wrote about it, disorganized it somewhat, and a networker sent it around the world. Monsanto used front groups to try and say it was a hoax even though my invitation to speak was on www.dorway.com/nomarkle.html So many people got off aspartame and got well that Monsanto could not put out the fire and sold the NutraSweet Company. The story is in the book Politically Incorrect Nutrition by Michael Barbee. Because I was willing to put my phone number on the Internet there was no way for them to get away with it. Here is my published reply to the newspaper. Published 8/6/2005 Albuquerque Tribune Dear Sir: J. D. Bullington says warnings about aspartame are a "massive hoax" and told your readers that I, Dr. Betty Martini, have "no credibility or scientific expertisewhatsoever". Bullington is the chief lobbyist for The Association of Commerce & Industry whose website claims: "More and more legislators are asking for the ACI position priorto key committee and floor votes. ? The business community needs only a few seats to receive a majority vote on most issues." Simply put: ACI exists to have vital legislation fabricated in corporate boardrooms. They usually get their way. They have the money andthe clout, backed up by hundreds of commercial entities to provide publicity and influence. Who am I? A citizen who in the '70s founded five 24/7 clinics with 200 doctors on staff in Atlanta, the first of their type. I also ran for mayor. We treated the indigent free, and I have a warm letter from Jimmy Carter commending me for this. 14 years ago I started a successful hands-around-the-world service, Mission PossibleInternational, to fight aspartame. Hundreds of times I've been guest speaker on radio stations & networks of up to 500 stations worldwide. I made two 3-weekEuropean tours and spoke to a European Union Parliamentary Committee. I've set up satellite operations in many countries; most run by aspartame victims. Our reports are in many languages. For this philanthropic effort I was awarded an honorary Doctor of Humanities degree. I have never pretended to be a medical doctor! My husband, who spent his life in chemistry, pays for this project, to the tune of $250,000 so far. We sell nothing, solicit no funds, and have never used aspartame ourselves. He's 73, retired, an ordained minister who says: "If we stop people will die, so its just Applied Christianity." Omni Magazine reported: "51% of FDA approved drugs have serious risks and could cause reactions that lead to severe or permanent disability or death." So what does a corporation do if it's product is deadly? Take it off the market? No, they recruit lobbyists to get cozy with the congressmen and state legislators, and they double the ad budget. What about whistleblowers? They apply ridicule, slander & libel, and quote phonyauthority, like the Calorie Control Council, a front group funded by aspartame producers. Of course all authentic scientific and medical documentation exposing the poisons they push is ignored. In 1996 the FDA reported over 10,000 volunteered consumer complaints, listing 92 symptoms including four types of seizures, blindness, migraines, minddestruction, death and sexual dysfunction: note the flood of medicines to restore our ability to make love. FDA has more complaints about aspartame than on all other food additives collectively. They deny their report now, but you can access it onwww.dorway.com/badnews.html. I sent FDA thousands of case histories, all ignored.They also illegally ignored my Citizen's Petition for a Ban. Who runs FDA? Eleven officials including three Commissioners took jobs in the aspartame industry. In June a 3-year study by the Cancer Research Center of the European Foundation of Oncology in Bologna, Italy was released, connecting brain cancer with aspartame use, which Neurosurgeon Russell Blaylock, M.D., reviewed: "The new study should terrify mothers and all those consuming aspartame sweetened products. This was a carefully done study which clearly demonstrated a statistically significant increase inseveral types of lymphomas and leukemias in rats. Both of these malignancies have increased significantly in this country since the widespread use of aspartame." Dr. Blaylock's book Excitotoxins, the Taste that Kills details MSG and APM neurotoxicity. Dr. H. J. Roberts, named The Best Doctor in the United States by a medical magazine is author of over 20 medical texts, including the 1,038 page Aspartame Disease, an Ignored Epidemic with 400 case histories. It is dedicated to me. Weep for this 8 year old APM victim, described on page 476: "The patient had two sets of head x-rays, three CT scans of the brain, two spinal punctures, four bone marrow studies, two electroencephalograms, two heart monitoring studies, two barium enemas, and a host of other studies. Her mother estimated the medical costs at $750,000." Dr.Roberts summarizes: "there was dramatic clinical improvement and virtual normalization of the blood changes when the mother eliminated additives." There are millions of victims like this little girl! We get most aspartame from "diet" sodas. The National Soft Drink Association actually protested against APM in the Senate Congressional Record, May 7, 1985, pages5507-11: italics ["Searle (the manufacturer) has not demonstrated to a reasonable certainty that aspartame and its degradation products are safe for use in softdrinks. Aspartame is inherently, markedly and uniquely unstable in aqueous media. In a liquid such as a soft drink APM will degrade as a function of temperature and pH. ? Without identification of APM's significant decomposition products it is notpossible to find to a reasonable certainty, that APM is safe"]" www.dorway.com/nsda.html Contrary to Bullington's blast, the protest of the NSDA cites APM degradation at 86F and higher temperatures. The decomposition chemicals are methyl alcohol, formaldehyde, formic acid and diketopiperazine, a deadly brain tumor agent: just for starters. What can aspartame do for you? A 52 week oral toxicity study was done on 7 infant monkeys. Five had grand mal seizures and one died. Have a formaldehyde cocktail! It's not a diet product! The Division of Clinical Epidemiology of the U of Texas Health Center in San Antonio just reported and 8 year study confirming a diet soda link to obesity. A 1985 study found weight gain among 78,694 women using artificial sweeteners. If you want to get fat, NutraSweet is where it's at! Cori Brackett, a Tucson victim, ditched aspartame and escaped from her wheelchair .... She's produced a fine professional movie, Sweet Misery, A Poisoned World. www.docworkers.com In 14 years I've processed tens of thousands of ghastly stories from afflicted and dying aspartame victims. It's unfortunate for your readers that J. D. Bullington did so little research and cares so little for the injuries his fictions breed. Senator Ben Altamirano sponsored Senate Bill 525 to create a Nutrition Council with the express statutory power to prohibit toxic FDA-approved food additives from your state. It was overwhelming endorsed by your Legislature but killed in the House on the last dayalong with 40 other Senate Bills when a filibuster ran the clock out. I'm very happy that Senator Altamirano will re-introduce this vital legislation in 2006 to protect the innocent. and unwarned, specifically parents, from poison peddlers. Unquestionably Bullington and other lobbyists have Senator Altamirano's bill in their sights. New Mexicans should ask: who pays these hired guns?

We Do Not Have An Upside Down Trade Deficit Because We Cannot Compete Our trade deficit is directly proportional to our attacks on US Businesses and Entrepreneurs. We do not have an upside down trade deficit because we cannot compete. We can compete with any nation. We have bad policies, over regulation, too many lawyers and lawsuits. We have judges and juries ruling for unbelievable sums to send a message to the businesses and industries as if it were the job of the court to dictate policy. The Self-Appointed Altruists Their arrival portends rising local prices and a culture shock. Many of them live in plush apartments, or five star hotels, drive SUV's, sport $3000 laptops and PDA's. They earn a two figure multiple of the local average wage. They are busybodies, preachers, critics, do-gooders, and professional altruists. FTC Hurts Franchising Consumers Last Summer the Federal Trade Commission came out with a report citing all the changes that might be considered in a future rule making for the franchise rule. It addressed comments made back in 1995 and 1999. This report did not take into consideration the many new entrants into the market as of 1999 and the failure to come up with a concrete policy before now did not take into considerations the needs of those companies which were destroyed in the interim from the over bearing rules and regulations, which has already cost American jobs and destroyed lives. The Transformation Of Political Science And The Rise In Crime Rates The current field of political sciences is dominated by a multitude of ideas that have never in its history featured so prominently in this discipline. The general belief that it has lost its focus once and for all is from time to time counteracted by different opinions. One of those is that the world has come full circle, that mankind has experimented out all possibilities in terms of ideological thinking and that the liberal democracy as we know it has come out of the process as the prize winner both politically and economically. Some define this as the end of history. It also goes by the name of ultra modernism. Globalisation fits in perfectly and all reflects the increasing complexity that we are finding our world to involve us in and which, in order to come to terms with the bigger magnitude of the whole, we are describing in essentially vague terms. Bureaucracy Suffocating the Flow of Transportation We are slowing the transportation flows of our civilization by over burdening our transit systems, transportation companies, airlines, railroads and shipping companies with linear thought out rules and regulations. We are over regulating, over taxing and attacking the free market sector companies and this is cost America jobs, governments in tax base and hardship for travelers, vendors and industry, which rely on this transportation. PTO - Patent and Trademark Office needs complete overhaul Recently in Maine, I talked with a gentleman and we discussed at a coffee shop the issues concerning the Patent and Trademark Offices and the slow processing problems with registration of everything from a simple patent or concept patent to a Registered Trademark or Service Mark. Also this past week had an email conversation with a gentleman from NC in a small business regarding weak trademark and service mark case law in several states and at the Federal Level and how that affected him and the owner of a mark in Ohio. Also discussed the issues with an Aussie who now lives in BC Canada with regards to a cross border US Competitor using a name he intends to use and has already used in Canadian Commerce. First use laws and case laws are different that in Canada and the US. And certainly no trademark is worth a dollar in China. Some would disagree if you have the right attorney there in that country. I had mentioned these types of issues in a letter to the FTC and discussed the problems with patent law and not knowing, the patent books, which explain all this are over 400 plus pages now and when you are done reading them you may or may not know enough to get the job done. What are the benefits of Nuclear War again; I must have missed that point? Indian and Pakistan and nuclear war. What does the world lose if India and Pakistan have a nuclear war? Well in Southern India; in the cities of Hyderabad, Banglore, and Coimbatore there are many students who come to America and learn our technologies and bring their hard work ethic and ideas. Once here they often join others and start companies. Environmentalists Say GM Seeds are Bad News Environmentalists say GM Seeds are bad for the environment, dangerous to the security of the world's food supply and will cause millions to starve. Yet when one really looks at the debate none of those statements can be made in absolute truth. Why is it bad for the environment? GM crops were said to be bad by some environmentalists, but Monsanto has figured out a way to terminate the seeds, this terminates them from spreading to other strains of DNA, RNA of natural or wild crops. Thus helps the environment. It is a relatively brilliant "Green Technology" We get to have our cake and grow it too. Quick Thought on The Flow of Fuel and Costs Without the flow of fuel our very mobile society comes to a complete stand still. When the supplies get low and the free-markets dictate higher prices; every one of us feels the pain in some way. Government Overregulation of Broadcast Content Could Backfire Rush is right! The government's stepped up bid to regulate broadcast television content is indeed frightening. Limbaugh made his comments during one of his regular radio broadcasts last year. Those remarks were in response to the FCC's crackdown on broadcast indecency and Congress' threats to hand out much larger fines to broadcasters for such violations, in the wake of Janet Jackson's "wardrobe malfunction" at the Super Bowl halftime show last February. Electronic Commerce Taxaton: Emerging Legal Issues - Part II UNAUTHORIZED HACKING Responding to Article: Logic Class 101 Applied to the Minuteman Project In response to Douglas Bower's article; Logic Class 101 Applied to the Minuteman Project and on going topic of the BS at our borders, I wish to comment. First I agree with the Professor regarding the rhetoric and questionable comments from the Minute Men, I agree with the problematic liability, I agree with our own national debate that few in our population see the issues on both sides. We have Bill O'Rielly and other commentators on one side and we have those who wish to make a better life supplying the labor we need on the other side. We have 5.2% unemployment and that number is so low we need labor to run our civilization pre-robotic era in our present period. Now then in his article: UK Elections on the Horizon With elections on the horizon and Blair looking tired and increasingly defensive, just what is likely outcome of the next election? The New Labour adoption of Tory plans and policies has created an almost parallel party in terms of the Conservatives and Labour. Many people are confused and find it hard to tell them apart. The Labour Party will struggle to retain the loyalties of the staunch labour support it has enjoyed over the decades. America Needs Election Reform to Ensure Congressional Honesty America must implement a policy on Election Reform that is equitable and fair to everyone. It is something we must do if we are to be a progressive society, a society for everyone, rich or poor. We, the people of the United States of America, must take back control of our lives by taking back control of our government. And the only way we can do that - be a government by the people - is with a logical Election Reform Bill. It is past due because our elected officials are thinking only of their careers and their futures. As our representatives, the only thing they should be thinking about is doing what is right for the American people who are their employers. Will Cloning of Super Families Lead to Slavery If slavery has not worked well, then cloning if it heads down the path of clones being considered less than equal could spell disaster for the future of humanity. Yet if there was a limit on the number of clones, then one could transfer their thoughts to the next clone and thus all the knowledge and experiences of mankind would not be lost in each period due to the people who perished in the previous period. However cloning is an advanced technology from our current position and the extension of life is also closely related in that one could simply repair and replace organs and continue living and there would be no need to clone, simply continue living until you were tired of living, have a clone and call Dr. Kervorkian or sign up for the next war, dangerous sport or international conflict. Federal Trade Commission Falsely Purports Franchise Disclosure is Cost Effective In a recent report on the status of the Franchising Industry, the Federal Trade Commission knowingly and falsely purported that its Franchise Disclosure Rules are cost effective. In fact; there is nothing inexpensive or "cost-effective" about the 190 to 230 pages of disclosures that franchisors must give to prospective franchisees. Anyone purporting such misrepresentations does so either for personal gain (Lawyer) or out of spite against franchisors due to a misunderstanding of what the franchising model is or how it works. Are Illegal Mexicans Really Bad for America? I've been thinking again. I know some of my readers regard that as a dangerous thing. For instance, the guy who ended his last letter to me with a "your hypocrisy knows no bounds". I get these sorts of letters all the time. High Speed Trains and The Future of Transportation Where are all the high-speed trains we were promised? Where is a cohesive transportation strategy? With the current price of fuel we need better and efficient systems to move people; these gasoline prices are for the birds or Camels? Why Dont We Listen To Entrepreneurs? I just got done reading a series of articles dating from December 2000 to September 2001 (pre-9-11) regarding Larry Ellison's bush to get the government to link all it's databases. Now everyone agrees, but now we are post 9-11. I wonder if Larry Ellison as loud as he can be sometimes ever stood up and said I told ya so? He would have every right to. He warned us. Gates did too, maybe not as verbal about it or graphic as Larry Ellison described the government's computer databases like a file cabinet where one drawer was here and another across the ocean in china in a dim lighted room. Reprisal of the Bill of Proposed Electronic Crime Act 2004 The clause (c) of Electronic Crime Act 2004 has been defied Cyber Stalking as defined in XXII of the Pakistan Penal Code 1860 and also clause (g) defines defamation which means Section 499 of the Pakistan Penal code 1860; but no as such provision are included on matter connect with commission of offence of electronically misuse and infringement of Internet Domain Names as Trade Marks which have defined in Chapter XIII Trade Marks Ordinance 2001. |
