Unfortunately products unfit for the health and well being of humans are readily available at ones local grocer, fortunately however a good portion of these products can become publicly unaccepted as it were, in lieu of factual exposure, and/or word of mouth advice. Naturally the process takes time for each product to become inappropriate, and denied of purchase, and hopefully this can occur before numerous public health threats have been established. One such product that has recently come to my attention is the substitute sugar sweetener aspartame. I hope to establish a small foundation of individuals willing to give up consumption of this chemical, and spread the news to others. Aspartame’s severe chemical affect on the human body is due the releasing of methanol/wood alcohol into the system.”Methanol is gradually released in the small intestine when the methyl group of aspartame encounter the enzyme chymotrypsin”(1). ”Methanol breaks down into formic acid and formaldehyde in the body. Formaldehyde is a deadly neurotoxin. An EPA assessment of methanol states that methanol “is considered a cumulative poison due to the low level of excretion once it is absorbed””(2). Consequently ”It often takes at least 60 days without any aspartame Nutrasweet to see any significant improvement”(3). Given that one may not extend their aspartame free trial equal to or longer than the suggested can cause one to be dubious of the culprit for their symptoms, and dismiss aspartame as a suspect. Aspartame’ s history of certification, and it’s timed release on society seems Inconceivable, and however both typical simultaneously.
