New Cancer Links to Aspartame
The artificial sweetener aspartame is once again the subject of controversy
following research indicating it may cause cancer. A long-term, large-scale study of the effect of aspartame on 1,800 rats showed that aspartame caused cancer of the kidney, and of the peripheral nerves in the head. Earlier data from the same study linked aspartame to a greater risk of leukemias and lymphomas, even at doses very close to what is considered the acceptable daily intake for humans. http://www.mercola.com/2005/oct/22/n..._aspartame.htm Donna |

Note that the study has NOT undergone peer review, and, further, its findings are at incredible variance with numerous other prior studies. |

Thanks for the heads up. Jeff |

Folic acid, from fruits and vegetables, plays a role by powerfully protecting against methanol (formaldehyde) toxicity. Many common drugs, such as aspirin, interfere with folic acid, as do some mutations in relevant enzymes. The majority of aspartame reactors are female. In mutual service, Rich Murray ************************************************** ********* Rich Murray, MA Room For All 505-501-2298 1943 Otowi Road Santa Fe, New Mexico 87505 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/aspartameNM/messages group with 146 members, 1,237 posts in a public, searchable archive http://RoomForAll.blogspot.com http://AspartameNM.blogspot.com Dark wines and liquors, as well as aspartame, provide similar levels of methanol, above 100 mg daily, for long-term heavy users, 2 L daily, about 6 cans. Methanol is inevitably largely turned into formaldehyde, and thence largely into formic acid. It is the major cause of the dreaded symptoms of "next morning" hangover. Fully 11% of aspartame is methanol -- 1,120 mg aspartame in 2 L diet soda, almost six 12-oz cans, gives 123 mg methanol (wood alcohol). If 30% of the methanol is turned into formaldehyde, the amount of formaldehyde, 37 mg, is 18.5 times the USA EPA limit for daily formaldehyde in drinking water, 2.0 mg in 2 L average daily drinking water, 185 times the New Jersey limit, 615 times the California and Maine limits, 1850 times the Maryland limit. The 1999 July EPA 468-page formaldehyde profile admits that four states substantially exceed the federal EPA limit: Environmental Protection Agency 2.00 mg in 2 L daily drinking water California and Maine------------ 0.06 mg Maryland---------------------- 0.02 mg New Jersey-------------------- 0.20 mg http://groups.yahoo.com/group/aspartameNM/message/1108 faults in 1999 July EPA 468-page formaldehyde profile: Elzbieta Skrzydlewska PhD, Assc.

The readily released methanol from aspartame is within hours turned by the liver into formaldehyde and then formic acid, both potent, cumulative toxins. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/aspartameNM/message/1106 hangover research relevant to toxicity of 11% methanol in aspartame (formaldehyde, formic acid): Calder I (full text): Jones AW: Murray 2004.08.05 2005.09.28 Since no adaquate data has ever been published on the exact disposition of toxic metabolites in specific tissues in humans of the 11% methanol component of aspartame, the many studies on morning-after hangover from the methanol impurity in alcohol drinks are the main available resource to date. Jones AW (1987) found next-morning hangover from red wine with 100 to 150 mg methanol (9.5% w/v ethanol, 100 mg/L methanol, 0.01%, one part in ten thousand). http://groups.yahoo.com/group/aspartameNM/message/1182 Joining together: short review: research on aspartame methanol, formaldehyde, formic acid) toxicity: Murray 2005.07.08 rmforall http://groups.yahoo.com/group/aspartameNM/message/1071 research on aspartame (methanol, formaldehyde, formic acid) toxicity: Murray2004.04.29 rmforall http://groups.yahoo.com/group/aspartameNM/message/1189 Michael F Jacobson of CSPI now and in 1985 re aspartame toxicity, letter to FDA Commissioner Lester Crawford; California OEHHA aspartame critique 2004.03.12; Center for Consumer Freedom denounces CSPI: Murray 2005.07.27 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/aspartameNM/message/1143 methanol (formaldehyde, formic acid) disposition: Bouchard M et al, full plain text, 2001: substantial sources are degradation of fruit pectins, liquors, aspartame, smoke: Murray 2005.04.02 rmforall http://groups.yahoo.com/group/aspartameNM/message/1141 Nurses Health Study can quickly reveal the extent of aspartame (methanol, formaldehyde, formic acid) toxicity: Murray 2004.11.21 rmforall [ Any scientist can get access to this data for free by submitting a proper research proposal.
