Dagur 336:

Fékk kökur. Og hnetur. Og eitthvað nammi sem ég ber ekki alveg kennsl á. Fékk í magann af þessu öllu saman. Eða kannski var það kókið?

Smakkaði þetta nýja dæet kók. Fékk það hjá röskvu. Merkilegt nokk... bragðaðist óvenjulega ó-hræðilega, miðað við hvernig svona hlutir vilja yfirleitt verða. hryllir hálfpartinn við tilhugsuninni um öll efnin sem eru í þessu til að fá fram rétta bragðið.

Held ég drekki þetta ekki í framtíðinni, nema ég verði skyndilega sykursjúkur. Verð að fá mína orku. Er hálf-háður sykri.

Þyljið eftir mér: sykur er góður. Og aftur: Sykur er góður.

Aspartam er Illt.

Aspartame is, by far, the most dangerous substance on the market that
is added to foods. Aspartame accounts for over 75 percent of the
adverse reactions to food additives reported to the U.S. Food and
Drug Administration (FDA). Many of these reactions are very serious
including seizures and death as recently disclosed in a February 1994
Department of Health and Human Services report.[1] A few of the 90
different documented symptoms listed in the report as being caused by
aspartame include:

Headaches/Migraines Dizziness
Seizures Nausea
Numbness Muscle spasms
Weight gain Rashes
Depression Fatigue
Irritability Tachycardia
Insomnia Vision Problems
Hearing Loss Heart palpitations
Breathing difficulties Anxiety attacks
Slurred Speech Loss of taste
Tinnitus Vertigo
Memory loos Joint Pain

According to researchers and physicians studying the adverse effects
of aspartame, the following chronic illnesses can be triggered or
worsened by ingesting of aspartame[2]:

Brain tumors Multiple sclerosis
Epilepsy Chronic faigue syndrome
Parkinson's Disease Alzheimer's
Mental retardation Lymphoma
Birth defects Fibromyalgia
Diabetes

Aspartame is made up of three chemicals, aspartic acid,
phenylalanine, and methanol. The book, "Prescription for Nutritional
Healing" by James and Phyllis Balch lists aspartame under the category
of "Chemical Poison." As you shall see, that is exactly what it is.

Aspartic Acid (40% of aspartame) & Glutamic acid (99% of MSG)
