Researcher Carl Manion has claimed that a single dose of aspartame lowered the sickle cell count in the blood. We've known that for 20 years because aspartame causes the sickle cells to break down as in a sickle cell crisis. Then there are few of them to count. Aspartame metabolizes into formic acid, a blister poison that transfers from cell to cell killing all and leaving a blister of dead tissue.
It blocks the body's ability to utilize oxygen by tying up an enzyme called cytochrome oxidase P-450. Many other essential enzymatic functions are disabled by this class of poison, 85 are now known to be so damaged. Formic acid or formate is such a potent sensitization agent that a sting by a fire ant can kill a human being which demonstrates the enormous immune system damage from aspartame derivatives. Like its sister, carbon monoxide, formate inactivates the hemoglobin molecule, so it can no longer pick up oxygen to supply the body, a vast injury to the metabolism.
[Dr. Bowen received his bachelor of science degree in chemistry from Eastern New Mexico University and his medical degree from The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. He completed residencies in internal medicine and neurology at the University of Washington. He is board certified in neurology, and has taught in the departments of both Neurology and Rehabilitation Medicine at the UW.
His research interests include clinical trials of treatments for MS, aging issues in MS, and the immunology, virology and genetics of the disease.
Dr. Bowen is involved in several organizations, including the American Academy of Neurology. He has served on the Clinical Advisory Committee of the Greater Washington Chapter of the National Multiple Sclerosis Society for many years, and has chaired the committee since 1999. He was inducted into the National MS Society 2005 Volunteer Hall of Fame in the Health Professional and Researchers category for his contributions as a volunteer.
Dr. Bowen is involved as a peer and ad hoc reviewer for numerous publications. He himself has authored more than 200 articles, abstracts and publications relating to MS and other neurological diseases.]

While Techno 1 and 2 are busy trying to slander the good Doctor Bowen, they fail to bring up what his content was about.
The Oklahoma Medical Research Foundation(OMRF) serves drug companies. They "test" new drugs, grind out "reports" and sometimes get patents for drug applications as in the case of aspartame. OMRF found surreal new "benefits" from this toxic "diet" chemical, marketed as NutraSweet and Equal now under many other names.
In 1996 the Food and Drug Administration published a list of 92 adverse aspartame reactions: seizures, blindness, sex dysfunction and death, from 10,000 consumer complaints.
OMRF has patented it for "appetite enhancement".
Now in 9 countries OMRF has patents to use it to treat SICKLE CELL ANEMIA! It enhances the disease, and makes it more deadly.
How it does the deadly deed: A third of the aspartame molecule digests into wood alcohol, CH4O. The alcohol next loses 2 hydrogens to be the undertakers' friend: formaldehyde. CH2O! Add an oxygen and its formic acid, the venom of fire ants which can kill a person a million times larger, also known as formate! CH2O2. Formate is a "blister poison" that kills and runs, transferring cell to cell, killing as it goes, leaving blisters of dead tissue. It destroys the deformed sickle hemoglobin cells reducing the sickle cell count, but it amplifies the disease inciting a sickle cell crisis.
TRUE?
Here is the PRO Aspartame ( Non Bowen) Article that verifies the story.
BTW, he suggest that it works to treat MS also.

(Ivanhoe Newswire) -- Internist Carl V. Manion M.D., is sweet on aspartame. Along with critics who claim the food additive triggers a variety of disorders from brain tumors to systemic lupus, he's convinced that the sweetener actually does cross the blood barrier into cellular structures. But that's where the similarities end.
"While our work has shown that aspartame 'does do something' to the body, the difference is that we think its effects are laudatory, not negative," he says.
A researcher at the Oklahoma Medical Research Foundation (OMRF), the third leading holder of medical patents, Manion feels so strongly about aspartame's analgesic properties that he prescribes it for multiple sclerosis patients. He even used it to ease his wife's suffering when she was dying of the disease.
Currently Manion's group has applied for several patents resulting from their studies demonstrating that aspartame is "especially effective in relieving pain associated with osteoarthritis, multiple sclerosis, and sickle cell anemia."

Slander: a malicious, FALSE, and defamatory statement or report
I ask again, was Dr. Bowen's medical license removed because he was deemed unfit to care for patients?
Yes.
Now, please explain how stating a fact is slander.
On the contrary, you've not proved that aspartame is toxic.
Now, don't get things twisted. Aspartame isn't a medication that is prescribed. It's an additive to foods. If you think it's harmful avoid it. It's that simple.
You can say it's bad until you are blue in the face. It's your right to scream that all over the place. But until it is PROVEN to be harmful, it's not going to be removed from the market. Do you understand now, why I'm hard on you? If you can't get passed me, (and really I'm not putting much effort into swatting your theories down), how do you think you are going to get past a panel of experts?
How do you think Gary Null testifying in front of Congress is going to be received when it's found out he got his "credentials" from a diploma mill? Or do you really think anyone is going to waste their time listening to a man whose medical license was removed because he was deemed psychologically unfit to practice medicine?
You aren't going to accomplish your mission of getting it removed unless you can use facts and data to prove your point. Otherwise you are just spinning your wheels. Makes no difference to me.
Talking shit on a blog isn't doing anything to accomplish your mission. If you REALLY want aspartame to get removed from the market, sending misleading emails isn't going to work. Ignoring the scientific method isn't going to work. Posting on blogs and conspiracy websites isn't going to work. You are only talking to like minded people who, right or wrong have been deemed "unreliable".
Is this accomplishing your mission or not? If you aren't making real moves in the real world, this is all just talk.
To be technically correct Methanol (you are calling it wood alcohol) is CH3OH. CH4O doesn't make any sense chemically. You'll need to know that detail to be taken seriously.
You aren't being completely forthcoming with the chemistry.
Aspartame is metabolized into:
Aspartic Acid (I think we discussed this yesterday, stimulates NMDA receptors less potently than Glutamate)
Phenylalanine (an essential amino acid--meaning it's required in ones diet). I hinted to this molecule yesterday, let's see if one of you smarter folks knows what I'm talking about.
Methanol. I talked about methanol metabolism several months ago. Maybe it's time for a review.
Metabolism of methanol to formaldehyde is mediated by alcohol dehydrogenase in the liver. Formaldehyde is further oxidized to formic acid by formaldehyde dehydrogenase. Formic acid is ultimately converted to CO2 and water, via the formation of 10-formyl tetrahydrofolate.
It takes about 10mL of methanol to cause blindness. Sure that's not a big amount. Aspartame when metabolized creates about 50% Pheylalanine, 40% aspartic acid, and 10% methanol. So how much aspartame would you have to ingest for methanol to be a problem....I'll let you do the math.
As far as the sickle cell stuff, you haven't posted any research about it.
Why don't you go over the biochemistry again first and get your facts straightened out, before you start talking about how aspartame is able to cause methanol poisoning. One place to start would be the volume of the chemical you'd have to ingest over what amount of time to overwhelm your capacity to metabolize methanol.
Details, Wax. You always seem to forget the details.
Decide for yourself

Yes, because this can all be decided by a democratic vote...using Google References.
Yes decide between someone who knows the subject well enough to take you through the biochemistry or someone who talks about the illuminati and refers you to an internet search for details....
I will admit that I made a mistake. The mistake I made was NOT looking a little deeper at your citation for Dr. Bowen, MD Johns Hopkins alumni. I don't think it's the same guy. The time lines just don't fit.
Maybe you can help me out with that Wax. The guy you list is about 53...yet one of your own articles proudly claims he's had his license revoked in 8 states for delusional disorder.
Same dude or not?
So, Wax. I'm waiting to hear from you to see if you've figured out that you have been listing the wrong guy as your hero.
Please reconcile a few things for me.
1. The claim by one of his own admirers that he's had his license revoked in 8 states. That's easily verified.
2. Why all the other people who are crusading against that substance list their place of business to add weight....like say Dr. Olney. Why did your Bowen list addresses in Hawaii, Michigan, Oregan, etc, but not Washington state? or the fact that he's a Neurologist on faculty at UW, or is currently taking patients at Swedish Hospital? (hint: probably because it's a different dude...).
Let me know what you find, then I'll take that retraction from you that I've "slandered" someone. OK?
