i read an article a long time back about a woman who had all the symptoms of greaves disease and was told they thought it best to remove her thyroid
she wanted time to think about it so went home ,and just that afternoon on her radio was another story like hers , after listening to this story concerning ASPERTAME . she tipped out her cupboards and everything had it in except the fresh food , her yogarts , her drinks her diet foods .
she binned it all and within a fortnight was so much better after 3 months she was backto her self again.
now i am not saying that ASPERTAME IS MIMICKING THIS CONDITION
IN EVERYONE BUT IT MIGHT BE WORTH CHECKING HOW MUCH your consuming and reduce it see if it does make a differance ,
just a thought .
I have read this before that a member got rid of any Aspartame containing foods and healed her Graves by taking a high dose of Acetyl-L-Carnitine alone. I really think the avoidance of Aspartame is a great idea because nobody needs it but as far as anything else, each person needs to take responsibility for what else they decide to do.
Hello Tiswas,
After 3 years of being in remission from Graves, it flared up again with a vengeance last year - just months after my clacium supplement medication had been changed to one containing aspartame!! Now I also blame the stress I was going through as well, but needless to say I'm no longer on that medication, or any containing aspartame.
hi yes i remember where i read it now it was in a book called SWEET POISON . A VERY GOOD READ .
