-
- Current Julia Roberts movie "Erin Brockovich"
, The Story Behind the Movie:
-
- In the context of this true story understand Title 18
of the Criminal Code. Aspartame used as an example.
-
- What the public should understand about this movie and
in relationship to other environmental issues is the remark about misleading
information. Under Title 18 of the Criminal code Section 1001, it is against
the law to knowingly and willfully
-
- (1) falsify, conceal or cover up by any trick, scheme
or device a material fact;
-
- (2) make any materially false, fictitious, or fraulent
statement or representation or
-
- (3) make or use any false writing or document knowing
the same to contain any materially false, fictitious, or fradulent statement
or entry.
-
- This is classic with aspartame. Examples:
-
- Call the FDA and they will tell you that aspartame studies
proved safety. Yet, their own audit, the Bressler Report, showed aspartame
was never proven safe (www.dorway.com).
-
- Their own senior FDA toxicologist, the late Dr. Adrian
Gross who was on site said in a letter to Senator Howard Metzenbaum:
-
- "The views of the FDA's Center for Food Safety read
like a script written for Abbott & Costello in the sense of their having
perceptions inside-out and upside-down .... 329 fetuses were examined in
2 days by a single person (a clear impossibility).
-
- "We have uncovered serious deficiencies in Searle's
operation and practices which undermined the basis for reliance on Searle's
integrity ...Searle has not submitted all the facts or experiments to FDA,
retaining unto itself the unpermitted option of filtering, interpreting
and not submitting information ... an attitude of disregard for FDA's mission
of protection of the public health ... conduct which compromises the scientific
integrity of the studies." 14 test blunders are listed, including:
-
- Substitution of animals (hiding deaths) Using sick animals
on drugs (unreported) Incomplete examination, unreported tumors Missing
batch records Mixing food so rats in the test could avoid the product Destroying
rats before they could be fully analyzed.
-
- The full frequency of brain tumors was not disclosed
by Searle to the FDA. In l976 FDA Commissioner Dr. Alexander Schmidt publicly
stated that FDA could not rely on Searle's studies. But the sloppy, incomplete,
doctored and fraudulent "tests," with a little help from some
friends, put NutraSweet on the market for over a billion dollars a year.
-
- Dr. Gross continued:
-
- "It seems bizarre that essentially the same set
of studies could provide a foundation for a decision that ...demonstrated
the safety of aspartame .. Although the General Accounting Office expresses
the view that FDA followed its required process, I sharply disagree ...
although FDA may have gone through the motions such a "process"
or dance represented no more than a farce and mockery."
-
- Aspartame was not only never proven safe but on January
10, l977 in a 33 page letter, FDA Chief Counsel Richard Merrill recommended
to U.S. Attorney Sam Skinner that a grand jury investigate Searle for "apparent
violations of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, 21 U.S.C. 331 (e),
and the False Reports to the Government Act 18 U.S.C. 1001, for "their
willful and knowing failure to make reports to the Food and Drug Administration
required by the Act 21 U.S.C. 355 (i) and for concealing material facts
and making false statements in reports of animal studies conducted to establish
the safety of aspartame." The FDA called special attention to studies
investigating the effect of NutraSweet on monkeys and hamsters.
-
- The RAO study, SC 18862 "52 week oral toxicity infant
monkey study" is legend. Seven monkeys were fed aspartame, 5 had
grand mal seizures and one died. According to a letter from Dr. Rudolph
Harris of the FDA to Barbara Mullarkey, this study was actually used as
pivotal in the approval of aspartame. Dr. Harris has yet to explain how
this proves safety.
-
- One would probably think how could a study be any worse,
out of 7 monkeys, 5 seizures and 1 death. Yet, on March 22, James Bowen,
M.D., told me this study was repeated and that 100% of infant monkeys fed
aspartame sustained grand mal irreversible epilepsy. He said the study
was stripped from the FDA file but he had a copy and gave it to Attorney
Charles Fleck in Lansing, Michigan. Later he said this attorney told him
the studies he gave him just "disappeared". Dr. Bowen also told
me of another study I had never heard about, a human study group where
all subjects had a complete physical before using NutraSweet. He said
they were given 3 cans of pop a day for 60 days. In the control group
12% had a physical complaint of some kind but in the NutraSweet group 42%
did, a 250% increase in humans in 60 days right up front. He said of the
NutraSweet group two developed highly malignant tumors, one breast, one
bone which rapidly killed the subjects in spite of all that medical science
could afford them, and that this study came straight out of FDA files.
-
- Now we're looking for anyone who has copies of these
studies or who knows people who took part in these studies or any others.
-
- The studies discussed by senior FDA toxicologist, Dr.
Adrian Gross, above, actually ended up as he put it "providing a
foundation for a decision that ... demonstrated the safety of aspartame".
U.S. Prosecutors Sam Skinner and William Conlon instead of doing their
job ended up hiring on with the defense and allowing the statute of limitations
to expire. Aspartame was approved in l981 by Dr. Arthur Hull Hayes when
he over-ruled a Board of Inquiry that told him not to do it. Then he went
to work for the PR firm of the manufacturer and has refused to speak to
the press ever since including when Fox News in Washington, D.C. did an
expose a few months ago. Hear the 12 minute news clip on www.dorway.com
-
- The FDA has put out in their Talk Paper, aspartame was
proven to be safe. According to Title 18, the very criminal law they used
to ask for indictment of the original manufacturer, they are misleading
the public. Monsanto bought Searle in l985. Also, the FDA distributes
the IFIC brochure (International Food Information Council Foundation) information
on aspartame which again misleads the public and absolutely LIES in violation
of Title 18. For instance it says "As a governmental agency charged
with safeguarding the American food supply, the FDA has concluded that
aspartame is safe for the general public, including diabetics, pregnant
and nursing women and children." All you have to do is read Louis
Elsas, M.D., testimony before Congress to realize the horrors of aspartame's
effect on the fetus. Dr. Elsas is Pediatric Professor at Emory University
in Genetics. He prefers that the whole testimony be read. Read it on
www.dorway.com Also read Dr. H. J. Roberts position paper on aspartame
and pregnancy and you will even see he mentions a man using aspartame
at the time of conception can cause birth defects in his own child. In
neurosurgeon Russell Blaylock, M.D., book Excitotoxins: The Taste That
Kills he mentions that aspartame is triggering ADD and autism. The front
pages of newspapers are discussing toddlers on Prozac and Ritalin. Dr.
H. J. Roberts book Aspartame (NutraSweet) Is It Safe?, Charles Press, even
discusses how the phenylalanine in aspartame lowers the seizure threshold
and depletes serotonin. Lowered serotonin triggers manic depression, mood
swings, rage, suicidal tendencies, panic attacks, etc. Prozac is used
for manic depression and yesterday Dr. Roberts told me that Prozac even
contains fluoride. He has also said that to take Prozac with an aspartame
laced drink is taking one psycho drug on top of another.
-
- Dr. Ralph Walton, Psychiatrist and Chairman for the Center
for Behavioral Medicine says: "We have known for years that when aspartame
is ingested with a carbohydrate rich meal the usual physiologic increase
in tryptophan is blocked, while brain phenylalanine and tyrosine concentrations
are increased. These changes in amino acid neurotransmitter precursors
could, I believe, alter indoleamine/catecholamine balance, and thus have
a profound effect on mood and cognition ... depressed mood, anxiety, dizziness,
panic attacks, nausea, irritability, impairment of memory and concentration."
-
- Do you wonder why an article in the September, l999 issue
of Parents Magazine was titled: "What's Wrong With Our Children?"
It says the National Institute of Mental Health estimates that there are
12 million children under 18 with mental disorders and that at least 3
to 5% of American school age children suffer from ADHD and 5% show signs
of depression. It also says by the end of high school one in four teens
will have seriously considered suicide. "The problem is so widespread
that its getting hard to find anyone whose son, niece, godchild or grandchild
has been affected. Some observers are calling it an epidemic and demanding
that screening programs, just like the ones for tuberculosis and other
diseases be put into place."
-
- Can you now understand why H. J. Roberts, M.D., has declared
Aspartame Disease a world epidemic? (www.sunsentpress.com) And Dr. Roberts
is a diabetic specialist and this statement about aspartame being safe
for diabetics is false and can cause the death of someone with diabetes.
In Dr. Roberts position paper on aspartame and diabetes on www.dorway.com
he explains aspartame can actually precipitate diabetes, keeps blood sugar
out of control, can destroy the optic nerve and even cause diabetics to
go into convulsions.
-
- Why are documents like this allowed to be distributed
when they are in violation of Title 18 of this criminal code????? Furthermore,
Monsanto/Searle funds trade organizations like the American Diabetes Association
and American Dietetics Association and writes their material. They have
been written to over and over again by physicians, and Dr. Roberts was
a member of the American Diabetes Association for 35 years. Yet they have
continually endorsed aspartame for diabetics with full knowledge it can
take their life!! They even refused to publish Dr. Roberts abstract of
aspartame diabetic reactors and it was published in Clinical Research.
-
- Aspartame destroys the central nervous system and mimics
MS and the MS people continue to defend Monsanto and use the same misleading
information on aspartame.
-
- The National Soft Drink Association tells the consumer
public aspartame is safe when in their own protest against putting aspartame
in soft drinks (on www.dorway.com) they admit its illegal under Section
402 of the FDC because aspartame decomposes and adulterates the pop. They
say aspartame breaks down in moderate temperature. Yet, knowing it was
against the law they turned around and put it in pop anyway.
-
- Why are trade organizations and the FDA allowed to violate
the law? Even in Congress FDA toxicologist, Dr. Adrian Gross, said that
aspartame violated the Delaney Amendment because it triggered brain tumors
and concluded by saying: "And if the FDA violates its own laws who
is left to protect the public?" (Congressional Record SID835: 131
(August 1, l985).
-
- Conclusion: Aspartame was approved only because the
FDA violated the law!!! James Bowen, M.D., told the FDA years ago (paper
on www.dorway.com) that aspartame is mass poisoning of the American public
and more than 70+ countries of the world. The FDA ignored the statement
just like they ignored the law. The Community Nutrition Institute in l986
petitioned the FDA to ban aspartame because hundreds were going blind.
The FDA again turned their back on the public. In Dr. Roberts first book
Aspartame (NutraSweet) Is It Safe?, Charles Press, he concludes by quoting
his comments at his first press conference. He said if something wasn't
done then in 5 or 10 years we could have a world plague. The book was
copyrighted in l990. Today he has declared Aspartame Disease a world plague
and completed a medical text on this epidemic ready for publishing.
-
- Now with the Trocho Study, l998, it shows what we have
always known that formaldehyde accumulates in the cells and damages DNA.
Translation: "Do-It-Yourself Embalming!" Sandra Cabot, M.D.,
from Mission Possible Australia says she prefers to be embalmed "after"
dying. Pilots are having grand mal seizures in the cockpits of commercial
airliners. Five heavy users of aspartame with American have died, one
in flight, and one had a stroke. This hazard to aviation is putting passengers
and crew alike in jeopardy of losing their life while FAA says they can't
do a thing because FDA approved it as safe!
-
- Those responsible to solve the problem ARE the problem.
The FDA has betrayed the public trust, operated above the law, and because
of their approval of a deadly neurotoxin for human consumption have created
what may end up being one of the largest epidemics in world history. FDA
has become Monsanto's Washington Branch office. In June Monsanto hired
Dr. Michael Friedman of the FDA who defended them on 60 Minutes in l996
and who we have sent case histories never reported. What a reward! Now
Monsanto has sold NutraSweet to Michael Dell and Pegasus Capital Advisors.
Is this a straw man? Will they resell it again? Are they trying to avoid
liability?
-
- Dr. Bowen told the FDA many years ago: .. "the
only responsible action would be to immediately take aspartame off the
market, fully disclose its toxicities, offer full compensation to the injured,
public and criminally prosecute anyone who participated in the fraudulent
placement of aspartame in the marketplace. that includes those who work
so diligently to keep it on the market as well." He also said: "Every
known metabolite of aspartame is of marketed or questionable toxicity and
patently unsafe for human safe." He also says he suffers from Lou
Gehrigs Disease triggered by aspartame.
-
- It took four decades to bring a company to justice in
the case of this true story, Erin Brockovich. Look at the case of tobacco
and its still on the market. With aspartame the population is being embalmed,
and they're poisoning our kids.
-
- What does it take to get Congress and the Justice Department
to carry out the law? Is there any question at all of those guilty under
Title 18, Section 1001? Think of the victims going from doctor to doctor
without even being able to be diagnosed because even the physicians have
received false and misleading information, and are not knowledgeable of
the fact that over 6000 products, food and drugs, contain a literal chemical
poison causing by the FDA's own report, 92 symptoms from 4 types of seizures
to coma and death, and breaks down to a tumor agent.
-
- Its time for main stream media influenced by advertising
to have some compassion on the human race and to tell this story. It's
time for Congress to see that the Justice Department acts instead of taking
money from Monsanto. q See Erin Brockovich and be encouraged to help stop
the mass poisoning of consumers in 100 countries of the world. The facts
are unrefutable!
