First of all, if you were dealing with arsenic or cyanide would your excuse be "but we only used a little bit"? In a lecture on www.dorway.com Dr. Russell Blaylock says "understand the reactions to aspartame are not allergic but toxic like arsenic and cyanide". (Excitotoxins: The Taste That Kills, www.russellblaylockmd.com ) Aspartame is a literal chemical poison and one that is cumulative. And all it takes is a little bit. As the U.S. Air Force magazine Flying Safety reported: "The effects of aspartame can be passed directly to the fetus, even in very small doses. People have suffered disorders with doses as small as that carried in a single stick of chewing gum. " ... Now lets take a bit further. One Georgia TV Station did an expose on aspartame and one of the victims we used was a woman who had never used aspartame but once. She was handed one stick of Wrigley's chewing gum and had a grand mal seizure and almost died. Now tell me again that you just put a small amount of poison in your gum. It's not that Wrigley's doesn't know, and in fact someone filed suit against Wrigley's in California for knowingly poisoning the public with aspartame. I've written Wrigley's for years: http://www.wnho.net/wrigley_letter_australia.htm Dr. H. J. Roberts has an excellent article on gum and absorption on www.wnho.net click on aspartame. He explains aspartame that is buccal acts just like nitroglycerin under the tongue, and goes through saliva straight to the brain. And this is what happened to the lady who almost died. Dr. Roberts declared aspartame disease to be a global plague and published the medical text on it, Aspartame Disease: An Ignored Epidemic, www.sunsentpress.com He discusses gum and Wrigley has been told this many times. The point is they know the gun is loaded and they just don't care how many people they poison. One man didn't know Wrigley had put aspartame in more formulas and used it. Aspartame is a chemical hypersensitization agent its so deadly, so when a victim gets off of it and accidently gets some, usually the reaction is severe. One victim put a stick of Wrigley's in his mouth, not realizing the formula changed and almost went off a highway over a cliff. Just one stick. If you wrote back and said: "I told the person who makes the decisions what you said and he refuses to stop poisoning the public. I'm quitting because I won't work for someone who knowingly poisons humanity." - then I could respect you. But a person of integrity doesn't give out excuses when its common knowledge this product is poison. There is even the movie, Sweet Misery: A Poisoned World, www.docworkers.com I've been writing Wrigley all over the globe for at least 10 years. And the more they learn how poisonous it is the more they put it in different varieties of their gum. The consumer public doesn't want even a little poison. A new study on www.wnho.net from Italy shows aspartame triggers malignant brain tumors, leukemia and lymphoma. And gum is the most dangerous aspartame product because of absorption. And because of the chemical hypersensitization it interacts with other unsafe sweeteners like Splenda which is a chlorocarbon poison and acesulfame potassium which triggered cancer and leukemia in original studies. Wrigley's just mixes the poisons together. And aspartame binds with calcium. A lot of victims have lost all their teeth from using aspartame. Consider this simple formula - poison plus poison equals poison. We are now making this boycott against Wrigleys public. Death and Disability are not acceptable costs of business. Shame on Wrigleys!
