SWEET TOOTH

Did you know that aspartame is poison? It contains wood alcohol and when it reaches 88 degrees farenheit, it converts to formaldehyde. It then converts to formic acid, which is the same poison found in the sting of fire ants. Formic acid causes a condition known as metabolic acidosis. This methanol toxicity mimics the symptoms of multiple sclerosis and systemic lupus. Many people are being diagnosed and treated for illnesses that they do not have. Not only are they taking drugs for something they don't even have, they are also experiencing many side affects caused from the drugs. Often, the side affects are worse than the original diagnosis.

Although MS and Lupus are not necessarily death sentences, methanol toxicity is. Lupus is becoming as common as multiple sclerosis. The patient isn't even aware of the dangers of artificial sweeeeners. They continue to drink diet sodas and ingest diet foods laden with these chemicals. In the event that the disease may already exist, these chemicals will take the disease to a life threatening stage.

Symptoms of methanol toxicity include spasms, shooting pains and numbness in legs, muscle cramps, vertigo, dizziness, headaches, tinnitus, joint pain, unexplained depression, anxiety attacks, slurred speech, blurred vision and memory loss. Fibromyalgia is also linked to these products. As soon as a patient discontinues the intake of the foods containing the artificial sweeteners, the symptoms begin to disappear. Patients who have been sentenced to life in a wheelchair have been able to walk on their own within a couple of weeks after discontinuing these products.

As mentioned in my previous articles, disease and illness is a physical manifestation of emotional based issues stored deep in our cellular memory. However, the intake of toxins and chemically altered foods will produce symptoms and exacerbate the intensity of the illness.

Switch to a natural, plant based sweetener. A diet of organic, whole foods will be tasty enough and you will rarely have to add anything to sweeten the taste, once you get used to it.

Stevia is the most popular natural sweetener now available in most stores. It is an herb in the sunflower family, grown in tropical and sub-tropical climates. It was discovered in the 1800's and it is up to 300 times sweeter than sugar, with no calories and no negligible affect on blood sugar. It is thought to be helpful in reversing osteoporosis.

Agave Nectar is a honey-like substance from the agave plant. It has a low glycemic index and is a great choice to replace sugar or honey. Honey is considered an animal product by most vegans, as it is produced by bees.

Sunrider Foods has two sweeteners made from Stevia. Sunnydew is the most popular. It is made from stevia, along with other plant foods. It has been formulated to have anti-fungal and antibacterial properties. This product is a great food and can be used liberally, as it cleanses the pancreas.

Keep in mind that diet soda is NOT a diet product!!! It is a chemically altered, multiple Sodium and Aspartame containing product that will actually make you crave carbohydrates. It is far more likely to make you GAIN weight, not to mention the deadly consequences mentioned in this article. Many people continue to make poor choices in their daily food intake and feel that if they drink a diet soda, then it makes it all OK. Well, it obviously isn't OK.....it's deadly!!

Got Milk?

Didn't your mom always tell you to drink your milk so you would grow up and have strong bones and teeth? She meant well, but she just didn't know any better!!

Studies conducted in the labs of some top institutes in the country, such as Harvard, Yale, Penn State and the National Institute of Health, have found that the intake of dairy products offers no deterrent to osteoporosis and there is nothing indicating that it builds strong bones and teeth. In fact, it was found that the protein content of milk is so high that it actually leaches calcium from the body!

Dairy products are laden with saturated fats and cholesterol and contain no fiber or complex carbohydrates. They are often contaminated with the blood, feces and pus from the animal, not to mention the hormones, antibiotics and pesticides used in commercial production. The animal also releases various toxins into the milk and meat, when they are mistreated or frightened due to the adverse conditions that they have to endure.

So besides being a major cause of osteoporosis and other bone diseases, the researchers have found that milk is to blame for many other diseases and disorders such as acne, anemia, anxiety, ADD/ADHD, allergies, asthma, obesity, heart disease, insulin dependent diabetes, autism and many types of cancers, just to name a few! Many people have become lactose intolerant which causes stomach aches, nausea, bloating, gas, IBS and more. IBS has been directly linked to fibromyalgia.

Keep in mind that the above information is documented based on research, but disease is the physical manifestation based on emotions that are trapped in our cellular memory. Poor diet and lifestyle choices exacerbates the illness.

Human breast milk contains less than 5% protein and weare only expected to drink it until weaned. This is a critical growth period in a human baby's life, so it's obvious that we do not require as much protein in our diets as we have been told. We also do not require milk at all after this period in our life. In fact, we are the only species on the planet that not only continues to drink milk as adults, but we drink it from another animal. When you think about it, it's actually disgusting.

The key to a long and healthy life is to eat a primarily alkaline diet with lots of raw vegetables and fruits, release the emotional roadblocks and above all, BE CONSCIOUS!!!
