Dear Debby, I remembered that someone's son was Carl but I'm not good at remembering whose. Now I will. I already think of him often because of the same name, it made a connection with me.... Blessed memories!Amy

flour... "

" Since sprouted wheat does not have the same rising properties, the

first ingredient used is Spelt flour. Sprouted grains do not have

the same gluten and protein properties which are needed in making

bread. A 100 % sprouted bread, becomes a problem unless some flour

is used with the sprouted grains to give the bread lift. Sprouted

breads need flour added to make them edible. If no flour is used in

a sprouted bread , the result will be sawdust. Sprouted grains have

difficulty absorbing water, therefore the bread would not bind

properly without adding flour. This is reason why we use a

combination of sprouted wheat and spelt flour. "

panel lists only sprouted grains, NO flours.

I dont post very much if at all but have been reading about everyoones diffrent

things that seem to be causing them seizures. My bfs neice surrfers from absence

siezures and they cant seem to really get them under control (she is 4) and on

tons of medicine and they cant figure out how she still sometimes haves them.

But i just got this article from a friend of mine and thought that i might pass

it along. Seemed very interesting and might help some of u.

A MUST READ*

*In October of 2001, my sister started getting very sick. She had stomach spasms

and she was having a hard time getting around. Walking was a major chore. It

took everything she had just to get out of bed; she was in so much pain. *

*By March 2002, she had undergone several tissue and muscle biopsies and was on

24 various prescription medications. The doctors could not determine what was

wrong with her. She was in so much pain, and so sick. She just knew she was

dying. She put her house, bank accounts, life insurance, etc., in her oldest

daughter's name, and made sure that her younger children were to be taken care

of.*

*She also wanted her last hooray, so she planned a trip to Florida (basically in

a wheelchair) for March 22 **nd** **. * On March 19 I called her to ask how her

most recent tests went, and she said they didn't find anything on the test, but

they believe she had MS. *I recalled an article a friend of mine e-mailed to me

and I asked my ister if she drank diet soda? She told me that she did. As a

matter of fact, she was getting ready to crack one open that moment. * I told

her not to open it, and to stop drinking the diet soda! * I e-mailed her the

article my friend, a lawyer, had sent. *

*My sister called me within 32 hours after our phone conversation and told me

she had stopped drinking the diet soda AND she could walk! The muscle spasms

went away. She said she didn't feel 100% but she sure felt a lot better. She

told me she was going to her doctor with this article and would call me when she

got home. *

*Well, she called me, and said her doctor was amazed! He is going to call all

of his MS patients to find out if they consumed artificial sweeteners of any

kind. * *In a nutshell, she was being poisoned by the Aspartame in the diet

soda...and literally dying a slow and miserable death. * When she got to Florida

March 22, all she had to take was one pill, and that was a pill for the

Aspartame poisoning! She is well on her way to a complete recovery. *And she is

walking! No wheelchair! This article saved her life. * *If it says 'SUGAR FREE'

on the label; DO NOT EVEN THINK ABOUT IT! * *I have spent several days lecturing

at the WORLD ENVIRONMENTAL CONFERENCE on " ASPARTAME, " marketed as 'NutraSweet,'

'Equal,' and 'Spoonful.' * *In the keynote address by the EPA, it was announced

that in the United States in 2001 there is an epidemic of multiple sclerosis

and systemic lupus. It was difficult to determine exactly what toxin was causing

this to be rampant.

*I stood up and said that I was there to lecture on exactly that subject. *I

will explain why Aspartame is so dangerous: When the temperature of this

sweetener exceeds 86 degrees F, the wood alcohol in ASPARTAME converts to

formaldehyde and then to formic acid, which in turn causes metabolic acidosis.

Formic acid is the poison found in the sting of fire ants. The methanol toxicity

mimics, among other conditions, multiple sclerosis and systemic lupus. Many

people were being diagnosed in error . Although multiple sclerosis is not a

death sentence, Methanol toxicity is! * *Systemic lupus has become almost as

rampant as multiple sclerosis, especially with Diet Coke and Diet Pepsi

drinkers. The victim usually does not know that the Aspartame is the culprit.

He or she continues its use; irritating the lupus to such a degree that it may

become a life-threatening condition. *

*We have seen patients with systemic lupus become asymptotic, once taken off

diet sodas.* In cases of those diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, most of the

symptoms

disappear. We've seen many cases where vision loss returned and hearing loss

improved markedly. *

This also applies to cases of tinnitus and fibromyalgia. *During a lecture, I

said, " If you are using ASPARTAME (NutraSweet, Equal, Spoonful, etc) and you

suffer from **fibromyalgia symptoms, spasms, shooting, pains, numbness in your

legs, cramps, vertigo, dizziness, headaches, tinnitus, joint pain, unexplainable

depression, anxiety attacks, slurred speech, blurred vision, or memory loss you

probably have ASPARTAME poisoning! " *

People we re jumping up during the lecture saying, " I have some of these

symptoms. Is it reversible? " *Yes! Yes! Yes! STOP drinking diet sodas and be

alert for Aspartame on food labels! Many products are fortified with it! This

is a serious problem. *Dr.** Espart** (one of my speakers) remarked that so

many people seem to be symptomatic for MS and during his recent visit to a

hospice, a nurse stated that six of her friends, who were heavy **Diet Coke

addicts, had all been diagnosed with MS. This is beyond coincidence!*Diet soda

is NOT a diet product! It is a chemically altered, multiple SODIUM (salt) and

ASPARTAME containing product that actually makes you crave carbohydrates. It is

far more likely to make you GAIN weight! *

*These products also contain formaldehyde, which stores in the fat cells,

particularly in the hips and thighs. Formaldehyde is an absolute toxin and is

used primarily to reserve " tissue specimens. " Many products we use every day

contain this chemical but we SHOULD NOT store it IN our body! * Dr.** H. J.

** stated in his lectures that once free of the " diet products " and with

no significant increase in exercise; his **patients lost an average of 19 pounds

over a trial period.* Aspartame is especially dangerous for diabetics. *We found

that some physicians, who believed that they had a patient with retinopathy, in

fact, had symptoms caused by Aspartame. *

The Aspartame drives the bloodsugar out of control. Thus diabetics may suffer

acute memory loss due to the fact that aspartic acid and phenylalanine are

NEUROTOXIC when taken without the other amino acids necessary for a good balance

.. *Treating diabetes is all about BALANCE. Especially with diabetics, the

Aspartame passes the blood/brain barrier and it then deteriorates the neurons of

the brain; causing various levels of brain damage, seizures, depression, manic

depression, panic **attacks, uncontrollable anger and rage.*

Consumption of Aspartame causes these same symptoms in non-diabetics as

well. *Documentation and observation also reveal that thousands of children

diagnosed with ADD and ADHD have had complete turnarounds in their behavior

when these chemicals have been removed from their diet. So called " behavior

modification prescription drugs " (Ritalin and others) are no longer needed.

Truth be told, they were never NEEDED in the first place! Most of these

children were being " poisoned " on a daily basis with the very foods that> were

" better for them than sugar. " * *It is also suspected that the Aspartame in

thousands of pallets of diet

Coke and diet Pepsi consumed by men and women fighting **in the Gulf War,

may be partially to blame for the well-known Gulf War Syndrome.*

*Dr. warns that it can cause birth defects, i.e. mental retardation, if

taken at the time of conception and during early pregnancy. Children are

especially at risk for neurological disorders and should NEVER be given

artificial sweeteners. There are many different case histories to relate of

children suffering grand mal seizures and other neurological disturbances

talking about a plague of neurological diseases directly caused by the use of

this deadly poison. " *

*Herein lies the problem:** **There were Congressional Hearings when Aspartame

was inc luded 100 different products and strong objection was made concerning

its use. Since this initial hearing, there have been two subsequent hearings,

and still nothing has been done. The drug and chemical lobbies have very deep

pockets. *Sadly, MONSANTO'S patent on Aspartame has EXPIRED! **There are now

over 5,000 products on the market that contain this deadly

chemical and there will be thousands more introduced. Everybody wants a

" piece of the Aspartame pie. " I assure you that MONSANTO, the creator of

Aspartame, knows how deadly it is. * *And isn't it ironic that MONSANTO funds,

among others, the** **American Diabetes Association, the American Dietetic

Association and the Conference of the American College of Physicians? **This has

been recently exposed in the New York Times. *

*These [or ganizations] cannot criticize any additives or convey their link

to MONSANTO because they take money from the food industry and are required to

endorse their products. *

*Senator Metzenbaum wrote and presented a bill that would require

label warnings on products containing Aspartame, especially regarding

pregnant women, children and infants. The bill would also institute independent

studies on the known dangers and the problems existing in the general population

regarding seizures, changes in brain chemistry, neurological **changes and

behavioral symptoms. **The bill was killed.* *It is known that the powerful

drug and chemical lobbies are responsible for this, letting loose the hounds of

disease and death on an unsuspecting and uninformed public. Well, you're

Informed now! YOU HAVE A RIGHT TO KNOW!> *
