New Cancer Study Obligates FDA To Recall Aspartame

"Given that this is so (and I cannot see any kind of tenable argument opposing the view that aspartame causes cancer) how would the FDA justify its position that it views a certain amount of aspartame (50mgm/kgm body weight) as constituting an ADI (Allowable Daily Intake) or "safe" level of it? Is that position not equivalent to setting a "tolerance" for this food additive and thus a violation of that law? And if the FDA itself elects to violate the law, who is left to protect the health of the public?"

Your toxicologist admitted you broke the law by approving aspartame. He also said the significance of the studies is much greater if one considers that brain tumors in rats is very rare: "the historical control rate for such tumors amongst large populations of rats indicates that no more than 49 animals afflicted with them have been found amongst nearly 60,000 rats, an incidence rate of less than 1/10th of 1% FDA never fails to consider this aspect of the "historical control" incidence. ... One cannot help wondering just why they failed to consider this particular aspect in reference to the cancer-induction of aspartame. Had they addressed the historical incidence of brain tumors amongst rats as presented by Dr. Olney, they could not have failed to conclude what I have concluded: - tumors amongst the rats exposed to aspartame increases many-fold " 8/1/85 Senate, S 10839 - 10840

FDA broke other laws, as shown in the National Soft Drink Association's long protest against approval, found in the Senate Congressional Record of 5/7/85 Pages S5507-9: "Section 402 of the FDC Act 21 provides a food is adulterated if it contains, in whole or in part 'a decomposed substance or if it is otherwise unfit for food'. Searle has not demonstrated to a reasonable certainty that aspartame and its degradation products are safe for use in soft drinks. ... Aspartame is inherently markedly and uniquely unstable in aqueous media. In a liquid such as a soft drink aspartame will degrade as a function of temperature and pH."

The hotter it gets the quicker aspartame decomposes. NSDA next reveals Searle deliberately used the wrong test: "High pressure liquid chromatography is a far superior analytical method relative to thin layer chromatography and numerous HPLC methods exist for the detection and quantification of amino acids. Searle's choice of TLC over HPLC adversely affected the quality and type of analytical data generated on aspartame and its decomposition products in soft drinks.. .. an important decomposition product of aspartame, aspartic acid cannot be detected at all using TLC. The inability to account for as much as 39% of aspartame's decomposition products is significant. The marked and rapid decomposition of aspartame in soft drinks under temperatures known to prevail is apparent from data in the present record and discussed above in these objections."

When responsible scientists, physicians and legislators try to protect us from these criminals the industry with bottomless checkbooks annihilate our rights and welfare. Arizona DHS studies showed aspartame in beverages breaks down into free methanol, wood alcohol, formaldehyde, diketopiperazine, formic acid (among other toxins), and a ban of aspartame was being considered. In 1985 Dr. Woodrow Monte, Director of Food Science and Nutrition Lab, Arizona State University, petitioned for a hearing to ban aspartame, because high temperatures in that state accelerate methanol and formaldehyde formation. By an unusual maneuver the legislature altered the text in a Toxic Waste Bill so to ban regulation of FDA-approved food additives. This scuttled the hearing Dr. Monte had been promised.
How are these abominations maneuvered? G. D. Searle lobbyists were Andrew Herwitz, Governor Babbitt's former Chief of Staff, and other powerful hacks. Then Searle officials contributed to the campaign of Arizona House Majority Leader Burton Barr. The Committee to Reelect Barr gave campaign contributions to state representatives Don Aldridge, Karen Mills, & Jan Breuer. They all voted on the side of G. D. Searle. The legislators were bought and paid for, and cared not for Arizona citizens. (Gordon 1987)

Another trampled law: Interstate Commerce regulations prohibit shipping adulterated products, including drugs, across state lines. All aspartame products are adulterated!

By law an additive must be inert. It's illegal to sell a drug as an additive. In original studies aspartame triggered brain, mammary, uterine, ovarian, testicular, thyroid and pancreatic tumors and is an excitoneurotoxic carcinogenic drug. The 2005 3-year Ramazzini Study on 1,800 rats confirmed what FDA knew from the beginning: aspartame is a multipotential carcinogen that caused leukemia, cancer of the kidneys, lymphoma and cancer of the cranial peripheral nerves. Only the rats fed aspartame developed malignant brain tumors. Producers complain researchers let test animals finish their lives rather than killing them at 24 months before most cancers develop. Standard practice is to kill the animals before they get sick. The Ramazzini study was peer reviewed by 7 world experts.

So FDA's Consumer Online Magazine, February 2006 assures us: "[Aspartame] has come under fire in recent years from individuals who have used the Internet in an attempt to link the sweetener to brain tumors and other serious disorders. But FDA stands behind its original approval of aspartame, and subsequent evaluations have shown that the product is safe. A tiny segment of the population is sensitive to one of the sweetener's byproducts and should restrict intake. However, the agency continually monitors safety information on food ingredients such as aspartame and may take action to protect public health if it receives credible scientific evidence indicating a safety problem"
"A tiny segment?" How about everyone who uses it? In 1995 FDA listed 92 symptoms from 10,000 volunteered consumer complaints including 4 types of seizures, sexual dysfunction, dozens of neurological problems, comas and death. So you stopped publishing the list and now deny it existed. I've sent another 10,000. Renowned doctors have written you. An avalanche of case histories has swept over you from afflicted victims and survivors nationwide. I have copies of them. You want credible scientific evidence? Consider this:

For 16 years FDA rejected aspartame because of brain tumors. Then Don Rumsfeld, CEO of G. D. Searle Co, went to Washington with Reagan and the next day his buddy Arthur Hayes was appointed FDA Commissioner. To avoid any action against aspartame by the outgoing Commissioner an executive freeze order was ordered by Ronald Reagan treacherously making him powerless till Hayes got to town. Reagan was a tragic Alzheimer's victim, a dread affliction aspartame invokes. It is rumored he was addicted to Equal, this brain eradicating neurotoxin, and memory loss is number 9 on your list of 92 symptoms, right under seizures, number 8.

Now Hayes approved aspartame over the objections of his own scientific Board of Inquiry. Searle was in money trouble until Hayes, Rumsfeld's stooge, opened the golden door. Hayes soon was under investigation for conflict-of-interest, so he escaped with a 10-year consulting contract from Searle's PR firm for a reported $1,000/day. Consultants don't need to show up for work; just answer questions on the phone, you know: How's the fishing, Artie?"

Doctor Ralph Walton's investigation of funding & study-results revealed 92% of independent studies show aspartame is a toxin. To show aspartame is safe the producers have to buy & control the study, as they did the Arizona legislature.

Roger Williams, Member of Parliament, has called for a British ban. England wouldn't have approved aspartame had FDA's intended indictment been known. Searle sneaked it thru by dealing with Paul Turner of Food Standards, who approved it without publicity. A Guardian article detailed the collusion.

FDA asked the Justice Department to prosecute G. D. Searle Co. for fraud, but the producers hired the prosecutors and the case expired with the statute of limitations. Neat trick! As an encore a parade of FDA officials including 3 Commissioners have been welcomed into the aspartame business. Telling FDA of aspartame toxicity is complaining to the Mafia about murder.

In the CDC documentary: SWEET MISERY: A POISONED WORLD [amazon.com & Barnes & Noble] see Atty. James Turner, former Nader Raider, explain how Don Rumsfeld called in his markers to get it approved. FDA had revoked approval because of the brain tumor issue, and because it was not proven safe, leaving this question: For 16 years until Hayes overruled your Board of Inquiry the FDA denied approval and tried to indict Searle for fraud: So why lie about it now? Is there another answer than political corruption? Meanwhile you attempt a rule change to prevent states from writing food safety laws. Do you intend to now go against the Bill of Rights, 9 and 10th amendment which forbids removing the rights of the people and the states?

In the Falklands Robin Goodwin has called for a ban. In New Mexico Stephen Fox has petitioned the Environmental Improvement Board and the Board of Pharmacy to ban aspartame in New Mexico based on the fact that aspartame is adulterated and against the law. Governor Bill Richardson III has been asked by 10 New Mexico State Senators to declare a state of public health emergency, in accordance with NMSA 12-10A-5. The emergency derives from consumers in New Mexico consuming methanol and formaldehyde, derivative aspartame metabolites.

You say you "may" take action to protect public health if you receive credible scientific evidence indicating a safety problem? A mountain of absolute evidence is in your possession! The impeccable Italian study proves aspartame is "a multipotential carcinogen". The bottom line of the new Greek study is Alzheimers. The world's population are guinea pigs, daily proving aspartame destroys the brain, central nervous system, immune system and retina, causes cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, precipitates diabetes, interacts with all drugs and vaccines, triggers obesity and is an endocrine disrupting drug, an abortifacient, adjuvant and teratogen that brings birth defects and retardation. University of Texas epidemiological study on 8 years data linked diet drinks with obesity just a few months ago.

Obviously your allegiance is to Big Pharma & their lobbyists, who are the Washington infestation destroying America with chemical weapons of mass destruction, while you pretend to be saviors and seek to outlaw vitamins and herbs.

You once attempted to indict G. D. Searle at a time when you had some conscience under Title 18, Section 1001.
This US Criminal Code declares: "Whoever, in an matter within the jurisdiction of the executive, legislative or judicial matter branch of the Government of the United States, knowingly and willfully

* (1) falsifies, conceals, or covers up by any trick, scheme, or device a material fact;

* (2) makes any materially false, fictitious, or fraudulent statement or representation;

* (3) or make or uses any false writing or document knowing the same to contain any materially false,
fictitious, or fraudulent statement or entry, shall be fined under the title or imprisoned.

Today FDA, you are now guilty of the same crime as you deceive the public by telling them aspartame is safe when you have full knowledge it is not only not safe, but that you wanted the manufacturer indicted for fraud. Your own toxicologists, Dr. Adrian Gross and Dr. Jacqueline Verrett observed Searle researchers' manipulation attempting to make a poison show safety. They just couldn't do it as Jerome Bressler explained in the FDA audit. They were caught.
Four years ago I filed a Citizens Petition for ban:

http://www.wnho.net/citizens_aspartame_petition.htm

The law requires an answer in 180 days, which law you broke, and brazenly wrote me that you have matters of higher priority. Saving consumer lives is low priority? Or was it impossible to answer my petition that proved from government records that you lie to America?
James Bowen, M.D. with Lou Gehrigs disease from aspartame, wrote FDA: "The only responsible action would be to immediately take aspartame off the market, fully disclose its toxicities, offer full compensation to the injured, public and criminally prosecute anyone who participated in the fraudulent placement of aspartame on the marketplace. That includes those who work so diligently to keep it on the market as well."

In secret trade information Searle said: "With the spoon-for-spoon, we have no way of estimating maximum likely abuse and hence need to utilize data based on almost complete conversion to DKP. If we include this use in the original FAP, we stand a good chance of ending up with nothing in the short run and nothing in the long run where as the other approach would give us something in the short run and, quite likely as much as we would ever get in the long run." DKP is the brain tumor agent. They knew aspartame would cause these tumors worldwide. Premeditated mass murder!

Heroic New Mexico Senator Gerald Ortiz y Pino who just sponsored the bill to ban aspartame said "Nothing surprises me anymore when it comes to the corrosive influence of money on our public policy... the final reckoning can only be postponed, not avoided"

http://www.rense.com/general69/nmm2.htm

I demand that you invoke the Delaney Amendment! James Turner, who with Dr. John Olney worked to prevent aspartame approval, declares the Delaney Amendment remains as written, although many have attempted to try and repeal it and Michael Taylor wrote a clause attempting to minimize it. Yet they did not succeed he says and it is as valid today as the day it became the law. The Ramazzini study confirms aspartame is a virulent carcinogen. This requires FDA to invoke the Delaney Amendment which is emphatic °© if a product causes cancer in animals it CANNOT BE PUT IN FOOD.

This should have been done a quarter of a century ago as your scientists advocated. Refusal will confirm once more that FDA is run by political lapdogs dedicated to their personal aggrandizement, treacherously condemning multitudes to disability and death. Mission Possible is a global volunteer force warning consumers about aspartame because FDA refuses to fulfill its commission to enforce laws that protect us.

We're taking aspartame brain tumor cases in NY and NJ for litigation, and this is just the beginning. This is written as an open letter so all reading it will send it to their congressman, explaining how FDA has sanctioned mass poisoning by bureaucratic fiat.

Be warned: A higher judge untouched by bribes has pronounced the inevitable consequence of such duplicity:

"Woe to you who are despoiling and who are dealing treacherously As soon as you have finished as a despoiler, you will be despoiled. As soon as you have done with dealing treacherously, they will deal treacherously with you." Isaiah 33:1 NWT
