In an open letter to radio show host Glenn Beck from Kurt Nimmo making the rounds on the Internet, there is a warning all need to heed.
Mr. Beck had been having trouble focusing his eyes and has been diagnosed with macular dystrophy, an eye problem resulting in permanent vision loss. The point of the letter? Nimmo warns Beck’s vision problems may well have been caused by his appetite for Diet Cokes, which contain aspartame, which is marketed under several different artificial sweetener brand names.
Also widely available on the internet is a September 29th article in the New York Times about Beck’s dietary indiscretions. “His Mormonism forbids coffee, but he consumes a lot of Diet Coke and chocolate,” writes Mark Leibovich.
The bulk of the letter dealt with the dangers of the genetically-engineered sweetener, for Beck’s and any reader’s benefit. What follows is most of the rest of the letter:
Coca-Cola began putting the ‘sugar substitute’ aspartame in Diet Coke in 1982. According to
the Department of Health and Human Services, aspartame accounts for over 75 percent of the
adverse reactions to food additives reported to the FDA. Many of these reactions are very serious
including seizures and death.
In 1999, the Independent on Sunday discovered that the maker of aspartame, Monsanto,
uses genetically engineered bacteria to produce the ‘sweetener at its U.S. production plants.
Aspartame is made by combining phenylalanine, which is naturally produced by bacteria, with
another amino acid. To make the bacteria produce more phenylalanine, Monsanto has genetically
engineered them. ‘Increasingly, chemical companies are using genetically engineered bacteria in
their manufacturing process without telling the public,’ said Dr. Erik Millstone, of the Science
Policy Research Unit at Sussex University, and a member of the National Food Alliance, told the
newspaper.
Here’s what Glenn Beck needs to know—aspartame is linked to blindness. It is made up
of 50% phenylalanine, 40% aspartic acid and 10% methyl alcohol. Methyl alcohol inevitably
affects vision. Back when the government imposed prohibition on the country, thousands of
people went blind due to the use of wood alcohol/methanol in spirits.
The late Dr. Morgan Raiford, a specialist in methanol toxicity, warned about the danger of
blindness associated with the consumption of aspartame. ‘This product [NutraSweet] has some
highly toxic reactions in the human visual pathway and we are beginning to observe the tragic
damage to the optic nerve, such as blindness, partial to total optic nerve atrophy. Once this
destructive process has developed there is no return of visual restoration,’ Raiford wrote in an
aspartame factsheet. ‘When this drug enters the digestive tract, largely the upper portion [the]
aspartame molecule spins off a byproduct known as methanol or methyl-alcohol.’
Methanol ‘is an extremely powerful neurotoxin. It can produce blindness, it can produce
cellular destruction in the brain and spinal cord— in particular the optic nerves that have to do
with our vision,’ the neurosurgeon Dr. Russell Blaylock explained during a radio interview. In
his book, Health and Nutrition Secrets That Can Save Your Life, Dr. Blaylock discusses a study
explaining why diabetics who drink large amounts of aspartame drinks are more likely to go
blind. Diabetic retinopathy is a leading cause of blindness.
In addition to blindness, a report produced by the Department of Health and Human Services
lists over 90 symptoms related to aspartame, including: migraine headaches, dizziness, seizures,
nausea, numbness, muscle spasms, weight gain, rashes, depression, fatigue, irritability,
tachycardia, insomnia, vision problems, hearing loss, heart palpitations, breathing difficulties,
anxiety attacks, slurred speech, loss of taste, tinnitus, vertigo, memory loss, and joint pain. The
following chronic illnesses are triggered or worsened by ingesting aspartame: brain tumors,
multiple sclerosis, epilepsy, chronic fatigue syndrome, Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s, mental
retardation, lymphoma, birth defects, fibromyalgia, and diabetes.
It is now estimated that over 6,000 food and drink products worldwide contain aspartame. ‘You
might be surprised to learn about some of the foods you consume that contain aspartame.
Besides the obvious products like diet sodas, there are many brands of chewing gum that contain
aspartame. Most non-fat diet foods contain an amount of aspartame and the same goes for most
sugar-free candy,’ reports the FoodFacts website. Many brands of cereal, ice cream, yogurt, iced
tea, powdered power drinks, nutritional bars, pudding, vegetable drinks, and many more food
products contain aspartame.
In addition to neurologic, psychologic, eye, endocrine, and metabolic problems associated
with aspartame consumption, there is another problem — addiction. ‘Persons consuming large
amounts not only may suffer aspartame disease, but also have difficulty stopping them because
of violent and prolonged withdrawal reactions… the hallmark of addiction,’ writes H. J. Roberts,
M.D., of St. Mary’s Hospital and Good Samaritan Hospital in West Palm Beach. ‘Recovered
alcoholic patients repeatedly stated that they felt worse after avoiding aspartame than alcohol,
and asserted that they had traded one addiction for another.’
It is dangerous to kick aspartame addiction cold turkey. Doctors and nutritionists recommend a
30-day regime of slowly eliminating the toxin from the body.
Earlier this year, Glenn Beck talked about eugenics on his show, but he only scratched the
surface. There is a mountain of evidence confirming that the globalists are cynical eugenicists.
They are now using food as a soft kill weapon to reduce the population of the planet.
Food is a weapon and Glenn Beck is a victim.
Glenn Beck routinely attracts millions of viewers every week. If he understands his medical
problems may be directly linked to aspartame and he informs his audience of this, it will be a
major victory for truth and a massive defeat for the elite eugenicists and their long held plan to
not only enslave humanity, but reduce its numbers significantly.
