Diet Soda's - The Sweet Poison
This was sent to me in an email from someone who knows a woman in the medical field and who lectures on problems with diet products.
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 22nd.
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 believed she had MS.
I recalled an article a friend of mine e-mailed to me and I asked my sister 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 were 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 preserve 'tissue specimens.' Many products we use every day contain this chemical but we SHOULD NOT store it IN our body!
Dr. H. J. Roberts 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 blood sugar 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. Roberts 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 seizures and other neurological disturbances directly caused by the use of this deadly poison.'
Senator Howard 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.
Remember, this was sent to me in an email so I have no way of substantiating the claims. However, if you know anyone who has serious health issues you might want to find out if they drink diet soda's. I am also going to investigate and will post what I find here on the blog.

SPRING CLEANING FOR YOUR BODY
Spring is a wonderful time for new beginnings. After a period of slower activity in the winter, the whole world seems to speed up in springtime, almost as if we, along with the plants and animals, are trying to make up for lost time.
We often need or feel like we want to "rev our engines" a little bit in order to clear out the gunk in our systems. We can't wait, when the weather warms up a bit, to get out and work in the yard, walk around or ride a bike. We all love to open the windows and air out the house and clean out all the clutter from winter to make room for "new life" and activity.
Well, it's also a great time to clear out the body of toxins that have accumulated during the winter. Whether we realize it or not, we all tend to eat "heavier" foods during the winter months to keep us warm. These "heavier" foods take longer to digest and clear out of the colon, which means they can be re-absorbed back into the body and can sensitize various tissues in the body that trigger allergies and hay fever later in the year.
Nature's Sunshine has several products to give our bodies that spring cleaning that they need. Some of the herbal formulas that clean our blood are I-X, BP-X, Enviro-Detox and Milk Thistle Combination. The Tiao He Cleanse is also great for cleaning the liver and colon, conveniently packaged in a 10 day program. This includes the All Cell Detox, which is another formula that helps the tissues detoxify while supporting organs of elimination like the kidneys, liver, colon and lymphatic's.
If you'd like to purchase any of these products you can visit our website at www.mynsp.com/hometownherbs or if you have questions about any of the products feel free to call or email us. And if you know of anyone who might benefit from reading our blogs, please pass it on to them.
Spring is a wonderful time for new beginnings. So, now is the time to establish habits that will support your health over the coming years. Take the process one step at a time and enjoy the results from the efforts you make. It's a great time to renew yourself!

Do You Have A Sweet Tooth?
Ever stop to consider how much sugar you consume? Many of us will end up consuming over 180 pounds of sugar each year (that’s over 13,000 pounds of sugar in a lifetime.) Our bodies pay the price for this level of consumption. Health experts agree that over-use of sugar is at least partly responsible for a myriad of diseases such as obesity, tooth decay, ADHD, hyperactivity and diabetes. Many people have decided to use artificial sweeteners instead, but these man-made chemicals seem to cause more health problems than they prevent. But we can have our proverbial cake and eat it too. Scientists have found a sweetener that is made from natural ingredients and tastes like sugar yet is low-calorie and does not cause cavities, it’s called xylitol.
What is Xylitol?
Xylitol is a naturally sweet compound that looks and tastes just like sugar. Our bodies already digest the xylitol found in fruits, vegetables and other organic substances. About 15 grams of xylitol is actually produced by our own bodies as part of normal metabolism every day. Nature’s Sweet Life xylitol is derived from non-genetically modified corn, making it a completely natural sugar substitute. Xylitol has a safe track record; it has been used for over 40 years around the world and is approved in the U.S. for use in unlimited quantities in food. Nature’s Sweet Life xylitol is gluten-free and without any corn residue. Not only does xylitol offer great taste, but it contains 40% fewer calories and 75% fewer carbohydrates than regular table sugar. It also has none of the side effects or bad aftertaste of artificial sweeteners.
Nature's Sunshine offers several products that use xylitol like chocolate bars. And few foods inspire passion in people as well as chocolate. Chocolate is not just a snack, it’s an indulgence. Used by the natives of ancient Mesoamerica, chocolate has been recognized for centuries for its ability to give energy, restore vitality and stimulate the pleasure centers in the brain. Nature’s Sweet Life dark chocolate is infused with the essence of raspberry and other natural flavors to create a delicious treat you will savor each time you sample. Since it is sweetened with low-calorie, low-carb xylitol, you won’t feel guilty about indulging in the pleasure of high-quality, sugar-free chocolate every day.
Nature’s Sweet Life mints are an excellent way to promote good oral health throughout the day and a sweet experience that won’t weigh on your conscience. Like our other xylitol products, it stops the destructive effects of bacteria by not allowing plaque-forming micro-organisms to adhere to the surface of your teeth. Nature’s Sweet Life mints are sugar-free, safe for diabetics and non-carcinogenic. Our mints help freshen your breath while helping fight cavities. Nature’s Sweet Life mints come in two enjoyable flavors, Lemon and Peppermint.
Chewing Nature’s Sweet Life xylitol-sweetened gum actually promotes good oral health. Enjoy the refreshing taste of two flavors—Cinnamon and Spearmint as you chew your way to a brighter, healthier smile. Nature’s Sweet Life gum freshens breath while helping keep your teeth and gums healthy. Chewing Nature’s Sweet Life gum after meals helps reduce cavities in two ways. First, it stimulates the production of saliva, which washes away and neutralizes damaging acid produced by bacteria in the mouth. Second, because it is sweetened with xylitol, it helps curb the growth of bacteria. The result is a cleaner mouth and fantastic breath. Our xylitol-sweetened gum is the perfect aid for children who just won’t brush enough, or for adults who can’t find the time to brush between meals. Enjoy after meals, as a snack, or anytime.
Do you want a brighter, healthy-looking smile? When you use Nature’s Sweet Life’s unique’’’xylitol-enhanced mouthwash, you say goodbye to cavity-causing plaque and hello to a new, radiant smile. Tooth decay and gum disease are serious health problems in our society. According to the American Dental Association, 75% of American Adults over the age of 35 suffer from some form of periodontal disease. Nature’s Sweet Life xylitol-enhanced products supplement dental health and fight periodontal disease by creating an unwelcome environment for bacteria in the mouth. Bacteria have difficulty sticking to teeth when xylitol is present—as a result, there is less plaque build-up and cleaner, healthier teeth. Our mouthwash contains the highest concentrations of xylitol possible in order to provide increased effectiveness and the maximum dental benefit. All Nature’s Sweet Life products are sugar and fluoride-free without artificial ingredients. We’re confidant that once you try our mouthwash, you’ll never settle for store bought brands again.
Did you know that the average person takes approximately 21,600 breaths each day? Each of these breaths brings with it bacteria, pollution and allergens from the environment. Research shows that more than 90% of infection-causing bacteria enters the body through the nose. Some of these bacteria thrive in the nasal passages. When used as a mist, xylitol has been shown to decrease bacteria’s ability to adhere to cell walls of nasal passages. Nature Sweet Life’s Nasal Mist also helps make nasal passages and sinuses feel clean, moist and more comfortable throughout the day. Nature’s Sweet Life’s Nasal Mist contains all natural ingredients, including grapefruit seed extract and 100% pure xylitol.
Life is sweet—and Nature’s Sweet Life Products make it even sweeter by giving you healthy, delicious alternatives that you can use every day. Because xylitol is a natural substance found in the foods we already eat, it is perfectly safe for human consumption and has been given the FDA’s safest rating as a food additive.
Nature’s Sweet Life Xylitol:
• Tastes just like sugar, with no artificial aftertaste
• Provides 0 grams of net-carbs per serving
• Supplies 40% fewer calories and 75% fewer carbohydrates than sugar
• Is safe for diabetics, hypoglycemics, children, and pregnant women

Give them all a try, you won't be disappointed. You can find all of these xylitol products and more on our website at www.mynsp.com/hometownherbs

New Silver Protects The Body From Diseases
Ok we've all seen or heard about the blue man on the Oprah show, who says he took high doses of a silver solution he made himself at home. The silver did heal him but in the process he turned blue. Some of the articles I've read about him say that his homemade solution was in the 3000 parts per million category.
Well here's the scoop on Nature Sunshine's Silver Shield product. It is a patented technology using nano sized particles to neutralize pathogens. At 18 parts per million, this Silver Shield has far more benefits with less concentrations and is absolutely safe.
Check out these statistics;
Well here's the scoop on Nature Sunshine's Silver Shield product. It is a patented technology using nano sized particles to neutralize pathogens. At 18 parts per million, this Silver Shield has far more benefits with less concentrations and is absolutely safe.
Check out these statistics;
- Kills 99% of most bacteria, yeasts, and molds within ten minutes
- Continues to kill pathogens with catalytic, not chemical action
- Can be used internally as well as topically
- Is non-toxic and safe at recommended levels
Here 's the lowdown on how it works. Stay with me cause it gets kind of technical. First of all, the silver is supercharged, requiring 10,000 electro volts to manufacture it for its unique chemical structure. And using nano technology, it is small enough to enter a single red blood cell. Each silver particle is surrounded by a chemical shell that is missing two electrons, which is called ionic because it carries a charge. The small silver particles hunt around in our bodies for pathogens so they can attach themselves to them and their thin cell walls to rip out one or two of the electrons that the silver is wanting. By rupturing the cell membranes to get to the electrons of the pathogen, the pathogen dies. Our normal cells have thicker, more protected membranes and a more balanced charge resulting in protection against the silver. Good cells and silver also have a sugary coating around them, which lets them communicate as "friendly" cells.
There is more. Each silver particle resonates or vibrates at a frequency that disrupts and kills viruses, bacteria and yeast. It has been measured at between 890 and 910 terahertz. This vibration is the perfect frequency to be destructive to pathogen cells. And also, since each pathogen's DNA carries a slight magnetic charge, the supercharged metallic silver acts like a magnet, attracting the pathogen into its grip and tangling its DNA into a chaotic mess, which keeps it from being able to reproduce.
Did you get all of that...
Here's some other information for you. Liquid silver is odorless, colorless and relatively tasteless. I put a teaspoon directly into my mouth and it tastes like water. But you can put it in juices also. It usually only takes 2-6 minutes for the silver to destroy 99% of bacteria, viruses, molds and other pathogens it contacts. You can take it everyday, which provides you with an internal "disinfectant."
Here's some of its other uses;
- As mentioned, as a drink, it circulates the body, selectively incapacitating harmful bacteria and viruses. And because it's inorganic, by the second day, 99% will be eliminated from the body.
- For sore throats, spray it in your throat or gargle with it.
- For ear infections, applying drops inside the ear once or twice a day.
- For sinus infections, spray it into the nose a few times daily.
- As a mouthwash.
- For foot and toe fungus, eye infections, skin acne or rashes.
- For wounds, as it acts like an antimicrobial agent.
Personally, I don't know why more of us aren't taking Silver Shield. It is better than antibiotics because it doesn't harm the good cells and doesn't create yeast infestations in our bodies like antibiotics do. My wife and I both work in an office together and everyone around us is getting the flu, some so serious they've gone to the hospital. We remain unaffected and healthy.

Just a quick note to anyone suffering from a headache. (Dave was last night) Put a drop or two of NSP's Peppermint Oil on your finger and wipe it across your forehead. Just as fast as an aspirin or tylenol, your headache will be gone and you've avoided putting those nasty drugs into your system that can do damage to your stomach and liver.
And for major headaches, wet a rag with cold water and put four or five drops of NSP's Peppermint Oil onto it and lay it across your head. This works wonderful! Just make sure you keep it out of your eyes, it is quite potent.
You can find NSP's Peppermint Oil as well as all of the essential aromatherapy oils on our website.

Enzymes: Unlocking Your Body's Potential
Enzymes are some of the most awesome organic compounds that we know of. They start vital chemical reactions in our bodies. And each enzyme works in a unique way inside of us. Digestive enzymes are especially important because they help breakdown the foods we eat into elements the body can use for energy, not to mention assisting with the bodies structural building blocks, like amino acids, essential fatty acids and glucose.
Unfortunately, enzymes are not very hardy. Every time we cook our food we inactivate the natural enzymes needed for digestion. Add to that improper diet, stress and aging and we further diminish our enzyme levels. Inadequate enzyme levels and the resulting lack of complete nutrient absorption by our bodies can affect our immune systems, energy levels, skin, joints and overall mood.
Here are some of the great things enzymes do for the body;
*Aids in the breakdown of most foods
*Improves digestion
*Activates needed vitamins that would otherwise be wasted
*Releases minerals your body needs
*Supports your immune system
*Protects your joints
*Reduces symptoms of indigestion caused by fermentation of undigested foods
Foods are made up of various types of carbohydrates, fats and proteins. Each food group requires different enzymes and other gastric secretions to break them down into nutrients that can be absorbed and used by our cells. If we are deficient in any one of these enzymes it can contribute to poor digestion and poor overall health.
