Diet Coke - decomposes into formaldehyde, methyl alcohol,formic acid, diketopiperazine and other toxins

Reality is in that Diet coke is poison.It's killing the unborn, raining tumors and seizures on the population, destroying children, incapacitating workers, mimicking MS, erasing memory and blinding. Inexorably Diet Coke visits a plague of 92 symptoms listed by our FDA on a secret report they'll never show which names diet soda as the first source of aspartame disease. And yes, Death was one of the 92.

Diet Coke is poison. And it's addictive, some victims drink several liters a day and keep it on their nightstands. If Coke changes the formula to remove aspartame the world will heal and the surge of hatred and vengeance by the disabled and bereaved shall certainly destroy Coca Cola.

The poison in Diet Coke is aspartame. As a member of the National Soft Drink Association, Coke opposed FDA approval of aspartame for beverages. Their objections, running to several pages published in the Congressional Record of 5/7/85, said aspartame is uniquely and inherently unstable and breaks down in the can. It decomposes into formaldehyde, methyl alcohol, formic acid, diketopiperazine and other toxins. In a study on 7 monkeys 5 had grand mal seizures and one died, a casualty rate of 86%.

Coke knew; and knowing, broke their good faith contract with customers, a breach exhibited by the recent plot to program vending machines to raise the price with the temperature. Dissatisfied with selling flavored sugar water plus phosphoric acid, they switched to pushing an addictive formula called "Diet". Addictive substances multiply markets, so Diet Coke soared off the sales charts, spreading obesity in its flight.. We're fatter because aspartame suppresses seratonin and makes us crave carbohydrates.

So why is aspartame/NutraSweet/Equal/Diet Coke/Diet Pepsi/etc on the market and in thousands of foods? Can you say CORRUPTION? One FDA Commissioner and one acting Commissioner have changed sides to work in the NutraSweet industry, plus 6 underlings and two federal attorneys assigned to prosecute NutraSweet for submitting fraudulent tests to get it approved. "It's like a script for Abbott & Costello." lamented an honest FDA scientist writing to Senator Metzenbaum. It works like this: "Approve our poison, and when you stop being a bureaucrat we'll make you a plutocrat! After its licensed we'll pay off the American Dietetics, the American Diabetes Association, the AMA and anyone we need who's for sale."

The jig's up! Worldwide consumer action has exposed aspartame, and millions have kicked the habit. Coke's profits are down 37% and for a year Monsanto's been trying to sell The NutraSweet Company. Finally they sold NSC, producer of the phenylalanine in NutraSweet for $125 million. Now Monsanto faces a $71 million lawsuit for exaggerating profits. Monsanto stock is in the toilet, but they may have found a buyer in the Swiss firm Pharmacia-Upjohn. P.U. for short! The deal won't finalize for a year. the plans are to ditch the Monsanto name as its stench is unendurable. CEO Bob Shapiro may soon be history, like Doug Ivester of Coke who just resigned. Will the last one out please turn out the lights!

I don't drink diet squat. I don't eat any diet crap either. Says right on the packages it kills rats.

Whenever I go grocery shopping, I avoid any packages that say "lowfat", "less sugar", "low cholesterol", "diet", "lower calories", "healthier", or any of that crap. I want the ones with the most fucking fat and calories I can get. Not only is it better for you, it tastes a HELL of a lot better. You only live once, go for the gusto!

It is far better to eat natural fresh fruits, vegetables, grains, and meats than to eat or drink crap like diet Coke, etc. However, if I come down with another bout of cancer, I'll down everything that the experts said would kill me.

By chance today, I was watching the Religious program, and they had one preacher who said it is todays food, which cause most ills. I have no reason to believe, nor disbelieve what he said. He commented about how foods were once natural (local farmer and all), now, in my area, local farmers are ghosts. We all, are dependent on some "Farmer in the Sky". Our food only exists, in the local grocery. One must think the grocery foods are grown and delivered by some Mega-Grower. What is his/her objective? To make money. They can not be held accountable for their product (unlike the once local Farmer), because their idenitity can almost not be traced. It is in their best interest to grow quantative amounts of food. Be it the Chicken Harvester, who feeds the chicks food full of steriods. The Chicken Breeder who keeps the lights on 24/7, knowing a chick will eat and eat under light, thus blowing it's weight up in a short time. Never mind that type of unnatural animal stress, also can cause massive heart attacks in the same flock, if you or I suddenly jumped up and screamed "Boo!" at the same feeding chicks. Believe me, I am no proponate for chickens, but some things are not right. Had one fellow traveler tell me they had raised commercial chicks for market, and fed them feed supplied by company, feed was so full of this and whatever, human could not touch the food, else flesh was burned. Was it the truth? Who shall know? But I have heard from two very different Life Travelers', that once it took 10 weeks from Chick to Table, now it only takes six to eight weeks, before it is on your table. Does the word "Steroids" come to mind? Not trying to scare the Be-Jesus out of everyone, but some folks believe meat (in todays form) is not good. Heard more than one Doctor say meat takes seven days to pass through the digestive system. Do your research, you may come up with something different. Other than hard facts, please don't bother to flame, shows your limited education/undetermination. Please investigate.
