SURPRISE—NOT ALL DIET

FOODS ARE GOOD FOR YOU!

Several years ago a man came to advise me on the fence I wanted to put around our property. I noticed that he didn’t look particularly well. I asked him if he was having health problems and he told me he was doing okay but he had been through brain surgery the previous year.

“Why did you need brain surgery?” I asked.

He replied, “I was having multiple seizures every day and I had developed a hole in the frontal lobe of my brain. The surgeon had to go in and tie off the blood vessels in that area.”

I asked him, “Were you drinking diet sodas?”

He turned as pale as a sheet of paper and said, “How did you know that?”

I said, “Well, I recently came across a research study in which every monkey that was used in an aspartame study developed grand mal epileptic seizures. In another study, half of the animals died after they were given regular doses of aspartame.

He said, “Ted, let me tell you what happened to me. I went to a neurologist after I started experiencing seizures. He tried to induce a seizure while I was in his office and hooked up to various machines. Nothing he tried worked. Finally the neurologist walked in with a diet soda and said, ‘Here, drink this. Diet sodas seem to cause seizures in a number of my patients.’ I drank the soda, and within five minutes I had a massive seizure.”

Mark had never had difficulty with seizures prior to his starting to drink diet sodas. The surgery he had was very difficult because it involved tying off blood vessels that seemed to be “dangling” in holes that had developed in his brain tissue. It was only by the grace of God that he survived. By the way, aspartic acid, a component of aspartame, has been shown to cause holes to develop in brain tissue.

My friend Howard did not survive.

Howard was a good friend of our family and he took me under his wing when I was a young teenager. He taught me the importance of getting good grades and going to college. He was the first person to really emphasize to me the importance of the decisions and choices I made as a teenager. Howard had a good job as a chemist, drove a nice car, and lived in a nice house, so I looked up to him and took his words to heart. He was a real mentor to me.

Several years ago I saw Howard and he told me with tears in his eyes that he had been diagnosed with four inoperable malignant brain tumors, which is usually a death sentence.

I asked him, “Have you been drinking a lot of aspartame products?” He told me that he used NutraSweet in his coffee and tea and that was basically all he drank all day.

I also asked him, “Do you eat a lot of cured meats, such as bacon and other luncheon meats?”

“Every day,” he said.
