Aspartame, Diet Pop, Equal | Carcinogen?

@jvie, I’ve noticed the only way I can get info I can believe in 100 percent is when I come to a realization by observing something. No amount of literature, videos or external sources made by others can have information that I would want to completely believe. Granted, one can learn and discover as a result of this external information, or think about something they read and notice how it applies to them, and that could be a great way to learn. Follow your own intuition, I agree with KellyM.

Most things that were created by nature/god/the creator (not man made) will bring you closer to healing/your natural state. Most things man made/altered seem to bring you away from your natural state. Even if it happens little by little, it builds up. There is never a standstill, you are always progressing or digressing. Consuming artificial sweeteners and the like might, although not always noticeably, bring you further from your innate state of being. I hope that makes some sense. In my case, the one ingredient I avoid eating at all costs happens to be aspartame. However there are probably worse things out there, and I have no way of proving to you why I avoid aspartame, as I have never really tried to observe its dirtect effects on me.

methanol from aspartame, wood and cigarette smoke, and
many sources is made by ADH1 enzyme into formaldehyde
within cells inside walls of human blood vessels,
harming adjacent tissues, the WC Monte paradigm:
Rich Murray 2012.06.27

See WC Monte’s two 1-hour video lectures May 2012
http://www.WhileScienceSleeps.com .

The 200 mg aspartame in a 12-oz can of aspartame drink
is 11% by weight methanol, 22 mg, which is soon released
from the GI tract into the blood, where quickly any tissues
with high levels of the ADH1 enzyme within the cells of
blood capillary walls and adjacent tissues, especially
liver, kidney, brain, retina, etc., in humans only, turn
the methanol into formaldehyde within these cells, which,
being highly reactive, quickly binds with and disables
DNA, RNA, and proteins inside the cells, causing cell death,
attracting macrophages (white blood cells), which also die,
creating durable, cumulative, evolving complex micro lesions.

This affects the fetus, as well, or not so well…

So, there are many resulting novel modern
“diseases of civilization” in humans only, for each type of
damaged tissue, including Alzheimer’s, multiple sclerosis,
lupus, arthritis, the birth defects spina bifida, autism,
and Asperger’s, many specific cancers, and chronic ailments
of liver, kidney, heart, lung, joint, skin, muscle, etc.
