Vitamins Dont Work – Aspartame and Sucralose is Fine

Food Supplements are Big business in America. In the year 2000 Americans ALONE spent more than 16 BILLION in supplements.IN 1994 Americans spent 8.8 BiLLION! Thats double in only six years! Multi vitamin supplements are the most popular and most people believe they contribute to good health.

Americans are skeptical about people (the Government) criticizing their supplements.Nearly half of Americans surveyed believed physicians are prejudiced against use of supplements and dont understand them.

People dont trust the government when it comes to advice on supplements either.Approximately 70% of people said they would continue to use a supplement even if a government agency ( such as the goold ole Food And Drug Administration or FDA) said it was ineffective! (strength Cond J. DEC 2002; ARCH.INT. MED.,161:805-810,2001)

This study is about 8 years old but I tend to believe nothing has changed. If the FDA told you to quit taking your vitamins yet approve Sucralose,aspartame and artificial flavours and colors are all slammed down your throat for consumption how do you explain that?

Dont get me wrong I love my Doctor hes’ a good guy and means well for me but this isnt about the little family practictioner. this is about the big conglomerations that are not making millions their making BILLIONS on selling this shit and then selling more shit to cure the problems they created in the first place…

What do you think Am I an idiot?

[Rob’s Note: I found this little comment in a note on facebook and thought it quite appropriate seeing as how a recent news story was advising doctors to stop recommending vitamin supplements to their patients because they were shown to not be effective.

Aspartame Poisoning?

Could aspartame be responsible for multiple sclerosis, brain tumors, fibromyalgia or other neurological disorders? Cori Brackett is a MS Survivor, activist and film maker who put together the documentary “Sweet Misery” which you will see below in which she interviews many doctors and aspartame survivors.

Cori was in the process of doing research for a movie when she began to experience a tingling in her hands and feet. At the time, she was unaware of any controversy surrounding artificial sweeteners and had been a heavy consumer of diet soda. She learned of the connection between diet soda, aspartame and many diseases and quit drinking them. The tingling continued, so she saw a doctor who informed her that she had Multiple Sclerosis.

Her search for answers about aspartame poisoning led her across the country. After 7000 miles, and 25 hours of footage, “Sweet Misery” reveals one of the most pervasive, insidious forms of corporate negligence in the history of the industrial revolution.

Dr Janet Hull, creator of the Aspartame Detox Program says “The dangers of aspartame poisoning have been a well guarded secret since the 1980s. The research and history of aspartame is conclusive as a cause of illness and toxic reactions in the human body. Aspartame is a dangerous chemical food additive, and its use during pregnancy and by children is one of the greatest modern tragedies of all.”

Fox News Will Tell You What They Want To Tell You

What happens when Fox news does an investigative report on the huge corporation Monsanto and it’s bioengineered hormone recombinant Bovine Growth Hormone? The reporters find the truth, Fox gets pressured by Monsanto, the reporters get threatened, bribed and then fired and the story airs with over 83 edits done by Fox news staff and their legal advisers.

Monsanto and recombinant Bovine Growth Hormone

Monsanto manufacturers a genetically engineered hormone called recombinant Bovine Growth Hormone which has created controversy since it’s introduction a few years ago. This bioengineered hormone, similar but not identical to a hormone naturally produced by the cow, forces the cow to produce more milk than their bodies naturally would. More milk, more profits for the farmers. With this extra milk comes more pain for the animal because their udders become swollen, sometimes so much so that they drag on the ground. Other side effects include a raise in the pus levels and antibiotic residues.

Fox News Reporters Threatened, Bribed and then Fired

After being told to keep their mouths shut about the truth, threatened, bribed and then fired, the Former Fox News reporters sued under Florida’s whistler blower statute. Judges on the case found that falsifying news isn’t actually against the law.

The story never aired the way it was prepared

What is so obvious from this little incident, beyond the issues with dairy products, bioengineered hormones, big corporations like Monsanto and many other issues is that single fact that one person (Rupert Murdoch) can own so many television stations and manufacture the news.
