Don't believe the American Heart Assn.
Pigmeat:
I have epilepsy. When I was diagnosed with it I was advised to give up alcohol except in small occasional amounts. I did. When hospitalized after a massive seizure and suspected mini-stroke, eleven years ago, I was told I was borderline diabetic and needed to lose weight and consume less sugar. I did. I switched from from chugging large amounts cola to chugging large amounts of diet which I'd previously drank only if there was nothing else before that time. In a matter of months I'd dropped roughly sixty pounds and I haven't had a seizure since. My blood sugar is normal, I don't take meds for it, I wasn't affected by the stroke, and I'm as healthy as a horse. Yet I've run through at least a two liter a day of diet soda every day in that period, as have serious caffeine habit and I can't stand coffee.
What I want to know, if I have the preexisting conditions that this sweetener is said to be the most likely to cause, why am I not six feet under? My type of seizure disorder has one in twenty five chance of killing me each time their triggered. If aspartame caused what those articles claim I'd either be dead or on an insulin drip? I can assure you neither has occurred.
Someone fetch me a Coke Zero!
I wonder if aspartame was responsible for Al's case of brain bubbles? Alas, he's left for his trip to the Hollow Earth and won't be back for week. Maybe he'll find Amelia down there along with Belinda's short-lived good looks? We'll just have to wait to find out.

Potentially bad news for us Coke Zero fans, they are going to mess with the formula: http://www.myajc.com/business/coca-cola-takes-chance-coke-zero-remake/YBATziEGjbgx1jHFZTB2VK/
Supposedly not much of a change. We'll see http://www.myajc.com/business/coke-seeks-ease-zero-fans-concerns/y9HMEahfnb1LftWOR9v8mL/

Yep, many folks have eliminates seizures, and the need for diabetic and other meds, by switching to low carb. Plus the huge drop in weight. Eat good, real, tasty food, and get healthier. It really is that simple.
I'll be upfront and say the reason I started the Bacon, BBQ, Beef, And More board was because of the epidemic of diabetes and other health problems in the radio hobbyist community. As a trip to any hamfest will illustrate. But with changes to diet, folks can get better. I lost 90 lbs. And really, isn't a juicy steak better than a bag of chips anyway?

You don't get the headaches or light flashes? Some people seem to be able to handle the toxins better than others. Typically, fat people seem to be able to handle them. Skinny people seem to suffer from the headaches and try everything under the sun to figure out the cause such as mri's, etc tests for brain cancer and so on, and if they'd just stop drinking aspartame they'd go away. This stuff is up there with msg in what it does but I don't think msg was looked at as a chemical warfare agent.
ka1iic:
I stopped believing in these so called 'trials' quite some time ago and here is my reasoning;
The biggest reason is these folks that do these trials start with the end finding before they even start. In other words fatty food or whatever will kill you, now I need to show you why. They don't prove a damned thing they play with the data to make it SEEM like it is so.
This is an issue with every type of 'science' that is done, to me it is creating false information to enrich whatever or whom ever has given (replace 'given' with bribe) the largest amount of money and a piece of paper with the outcome of the 'trial' written in large letters so the blind assholes aka 'scientist' will get it right the first time.
Also, a number of these, so called 'expert scientist' that get your tax dollars are copyrighting all data, computer models, computer code etc So they can hide exactly how they came to their conclusion. This makes it totally impossible for other scientist to test the data, test the computer models and computer code for accuracy. This is unlike what happens in normal industry. When you do testing for industry the data, computer model and computer code becomes the property and copyright ownership of the company you work for, in other words it isn't yours period.
Why does this work differently for 'scientist' that get grants from your Government?
To be a 'scientist' today means you are bought and paid for by someone generally whom ever forks over the most cash. It is a most sorry state for science. It leaves persons like myself with a sh*tty taste in my mouth, that taste is a whole lot like soy this or that. Yes I will not eat anything that has soy in it.
Science today has little or NO credibility.
Take NASA as an example; NASA is always hyping up the possibility of life on Mars or the Moon or Doctor Who's butt etc etc so folks might tell their Representatives to give NASA more money to check this possibility out. Well the folks at NASA know, all too well, that it is very unlikely to find life anytime in the near future. If they do find life it most likely will be a microbe that if it came in contact with we humans if would be worse than the Black Plague. Welcome to the 21st century folks!
The above example is a bit off topic but it reeks of the truth.
Also here's another reason why most 'science'; and 'scientists' have lost credibility in my mind. I keep getting pop-up ads with Dr. Stephen Hawking trying to sell me some 'brain pills'... Now I admit I am not the sharpest tool in the box but Hawking hawking brain pills? Does he think I'm an idiot? Any jackass knows there is no such thing and he endorses them like he has used them all of his life... To that I say %&&^&#^%^&$* and leave me alone!
Is it any wonder that I hide my sheepskin under a pile of dirty laundry?
