Is This More-Dangerous-than-Aspartame Sweetener Hiding in Your Food?

Bozette 2012/03/28 09:41:20
Neotane is made by NutraSweet the original manufacturer of aspartame. It is based on the formula for aspartame.

"Neotame is essentially aspartame plus 3,3-dimethylbutyl, which blocks production of phenylalanine, thereby eliminating the need for a warning on labels directed at people who cannot properly metabolize phenylalanine. 3,3-Dimethylbutyraldehyde is a highly flammable irritant, and carries risk statements for handling including irritating to skin, eyes and respiratory system."

Does that sound like something you want to ingest?

"Neotame has similar structure to aspartame — except that, from it’s structure, appears to be even more toxic than aspartame. This potential increase in toxicity will make up for the fact that less will be used in diet drinks. Like aspartame, some of the concerns include gradual neurotoxic and immunotoxic damage from the combination of the formaldehyde metabolite (which is toxic at extremely low doses) and the excitotoxic amino acid. (Holisticmed.com)"

Monsanto's own studies showed adverse reactions yet no independent studies were performed.

Neotane is a more stable product and can be used in a wider variety of processed foods and may start showing up in the beef you consume as well.

Artificial sweeteners are billed as helping in the fight against obesity. Neotane's own website bills it as a "healthier" choice.

NOW GET THIS...

Neotane is currently sold in India as a substitute for molasses which is used in cattle feed to mask unpleasant taste and odor of cattle feed so that the cattle will eat it. According to the chairman of Ensigns Health Care which markets Sweetos, " Cattle consume more fodder when mixed with Sweetos."

So, it is marketed as a diet product to humans and and fattening agent for cattle...What say you?

    The problem is beyond just Monsanto, the problem is beyond just these chemical food products, and sweeteners that are designed to degrade human health, the problem is the public! As long as the public was not buying they've got business, if the public stopped consuming this stuff, they would be out of business.

    If the public would simply stop supporting governments, corporations, academic institutions, and religions, they would shut down, and that would be a good thing, so the question is why does the public support these parasites, why does the public buy the toxins?

    Nothing makes sense here as why would Indians fatten their sacred animals. My concern will this stuff effect the milk which they use. Will it effect agriculture as use the manure as fertilizer. They use molasses to bind the feed as it contains additives which separate out of it not just for taste.

    Aspartame is very bad for you. I found out the hard way & will not touch it. I;m sure this new one isnt much better. Use REAL sugar.

    Actually, I think this one is worse. I'm not big on real sugar either, as most of the sugar beets are GMOs now. I use honey, mostly.

    Most of the food now is GMO. I had some real farm grown organic string beans today... NOTHING like the ones you get in the store . I'm sure that farmer will be shut down soon. They are doing all they can do to get this crap into us. This one bypasses the reaction in Phenylketonurics ( I bet it does ) so therefore they dont have to list it on the label, they can just sneak it in there. I'm sure it is worse.

    That is the trend, and from my research 70-90+ percent of sugar beets, soy, corn and canola are GMO. More crops become so every year. Precisely why we need to fight it on every level when personal gardens, co-ops, etc. are targeted.

    All of the vegetables where i live are GMO. Nothing looks or tastes even remotely natural anymore. I actually bought some grapes that i thought were a little weird looking , globe like in shape, not oval , and left them in the fridge( I put grapes in the fridge ) to see how long they would last. Would you believe 3 weeks !!

    My organic tomato started to turn after only 1 day of being cut. These days a store bought tomato will last almost 1 week before turning. It's ridiculous.

    Nothing processed tastes like it used to either...everything is bland now.

    I would believe it, I have seen it with many foods.

    I am so disgusted with what is happening with our food, water, medicines...they are poisoning us with all of these things. When I was young, my parents, being local business owners, went to most funerals in the area. The majority of the people were elderly, with a few younger ones who died from accidents. I cannot even count or think of all of my friends and relatives who have died between the ages of 16 and 55 at one sitting as there have been so many. Quite a large number of them were considered "natural" causes. I also know several people who have rare diseases or are already disabled by a disease.

    Ironically they are paying billions of dollars a year to farmers not to grow then they bitch about world hunger. We don't need genetically modified foods we need to let farmers farm and keep the chemicals out of out food supply we don't need the FDA and we don't need Monsanto. I for one have enough land to grow all the vegetables I need for a family of 4 until the next season I grow my own without the help of the FDA or Monsanto.If and when they come to my land to force me not too they will be shot on site. Hopefully someone is reading this that will tell the tale. I'm ready!!

    I wholeheartedly agree with you! Unfortunately, despite the propaganda, they are not concerned with world hunger. It's all about the money/power/control. The raids on small farmers and co-ops prove this. They even went after some guy, in Georgia I believe, for growing things in his own yard. I have enough property that I should be able to grow my own veggies, but also raise enough livestock to fill my freezer for the year. Zoning laws prohibit me from more than one head of livestock or five chickens...on a five acre parcel surrounded by other five acre parcels! Their goal is to prohibit people from being self-sufficient in any way. To allow that would cut into the profits of companies like Monsanto who are in bed with the FDA and give big bucks to the politicians.

    That they do! Have you seen where municipalities are telling people that have replaced their front yards with gardens that they are in violation of code? One man fought them and won, a woman had the city come in and bulldoze hers and another may have to do 93 days in jail!

    Hey, let's all donate more money to the FDA and thank them for doing such a bang up job of keeping the public safe and healthy. More govt, more waste, nothing changes.
    Anyone else wondering if PHARMA and Monsanto are actually one and the same? It would make sense if you think about it. One keeps the other in business.

    If you take a look at just how many products contain chemicals that cause diabetes, obesity, cancer, and God only knows how many other diseases, it makes perfect sense that the two are in bed together. With Monsanto having an illegal monopoly on feed and seed on this planet, who better to supply you with bodies needing medical attention.
    Oh, and don't forget to put a big X where they are supposed to operate.

    Damn near everything you buy at the grocery is filled full of chemicals, genetically modified or pumped full of hormones and antibiotics. Add to that the raids on producers of good, healthy, organic foods of all types and it is plain to see what is happening.

    They had tried to make it so that you could not drill a well here, but would have to hook up to city water. It didn't pass, though I am sure they will try again. Between the fluoride, chlorine, trace drugs and who knows what else...no thanks! There was even an op ed piece in Detroit recently saying sterilants should be added to the water supply! They sell jugs of water specifically marketed for babies containing fluoride and doctors are recommending parents buy/use only that water for their babies.

    I don't claim to understand the complete idiocy of the American public. PA had a billboard campaign to force Fluoridation of their water supply. ????
    I won't even give my dog tap water. When I go home on time off, the water is filtered before she drinks it.

    Apparently the ONLY sweeteners that are good for Living Vessel consumption are unrefined sugar and stevia. If there's an ingredient with 'tame' in it, I don't eat or drink it.

    I have heard of stevia, but haven't yet tried it. I don't often use sweeteners, but when I do, most often it ts honey. I still have a big jar that was harvested out back of where I once lived so is not commercially processed.

    Thank you and you are welcome.
