WARNING! Sweetener Aspartame’s Hidden Dangers …Aspartame poisoning an Urban Myth?

If a product is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and composed of natural ingredients, would you assume it is safe to consume?

If the same product is an artificial sweetener, would you assume it helps control your weight?

Millions of people use aspartame, the artificial sweetener known as NutraSweet™, with these assumptions in mind.

Aspartame can be found in thousands of products such as:

* instant breakfasts
* breath mints
* cereals
* sugar-free chewing gum
* cocoa mixes
* coffee beverages
* frozen desserts
* gelatin desserts
* juice beverages
* laxatives
* multivitamins
* milk drinks
* pharmaceuticals and supplements, including over-the-counter medicines
* shake mixes
* soft drinks
* tabletop sweeteners
* tea beverages
* instant teas and coffees
* topping mixes
* wine coolers
* yogurt

However, aspartame’s tainted history of approval and potentially toxic ingredients cast serious doubt on the safety of this sugar substitute. Furthermore, aspartame may actually increase your appetite (Farber 52).

While the FDA approval may signal the green light for safe consumption, 85 percent of all complaints registered with the FDA are for adverse reactions to aspartame, including five reported deaths. A closer look at the unscientific studies, suspicious approval methods, and its harmful ingredients, reveal the hidden dangers of this artificial sweetener. In reality, aspartame poses a public health threat.
Ailments Resulting From Aspartame

The components of aspartame can lead to a wide variety of ailments. Some of these problems occur gradually while others are immediate, acute reactions.

A few of the many disorders associated with aspartame include the following:

Birth Defects
Cancer (Brain Cancer)
Diabetes
Emotional Disorders
Epilepsy/Seizures

Why don’t we hear about these things?

The reason many people do not hear about serious reactions to aspartame is twofold: 1) Lack of awareness by the general population. Aspartame-caused diseases are not reported in the newspapers like plane crashes. This is because these incidents occur one at a time in thousands of different locations across the United States. 2) Most people do not associate their symptoms with the long-term use of aspartame. For the people who have killed a significant percentage of their brain cells and thereby caused a chronic illness, there is no way that they would normally associate such an illness with aspartame consumption.

Jay Leno Rips NBC in Monologue… Conan Stinks… Jim Norton Curse?

Jay Leno Rips NBC in Monologue
By Mike Hess

Jay Leno used his talk-show pulpit to skewer NBC on the day that various media reports emerged that his days in the 10 p.m. time slot may be done. Going straight for the throat, Leno taunted his network by saying “I hear Fox is beautiful this time of year” and joking that the trust between him and the Peacock network is gone.

The verbal assault comes after rumors flew claiming Leno would be returning to 11:30 in late February. There was no word where that would leave Conan O’Brien, who took over Leno’s ‘Tonight Show’ chair last year.

During his monologue, Leno put in several shots at NBC. When addressing the cancellation rumor, he quipped that he has nothing to worry about because “NBC only cancels you when you’re in first place, so we’re fine.”

Since taking the 10 p.m. slot, Leno’s ratings have been in steady decline and are a far drop from his ‘Tonight’ pull. Making matters even worse for NBC, local affiliates across the country complained because his 10 p.m. lead-in into their 11 p.m. newscasts was hurting their ratings.

Perhaps the harshest shot that Leno took at NBC was veiled in a news story that he turned to his advantage.

“The Justice Department announced they’ll conduct an anti-trust review of Comcast’s proposal deal … you know the merge with NBC. Anti-trust, which is the relationship I have with NBC,” he said.

Closing out the monologue, Leno got in one last pot shot, asking band leader Kevin Eubanks: ” Hey Kev, what does NBC stand for? Never Believe your Contract!”

PopEater’s Rob Shuter reported on December 17 that NBC was courting Jerry Seinfeld to replace O’Brien in the hopes of boosting that slot’s sagging ratings. Unfortunately, NBC was unable to ink the deal according to Shuter, which then prompted the possible Leno switch.

In a statement obtained by EW.com, NBC is shooting down the shift rumors, saying (without denying any upcoming changes): “Jay Leno is one of the most compelling entertainers in the world today. As we have said all along, Jay’s show has performed exactly as we anticipated on the network. It has, however, presented some issues for our affiliates. Both Jay and the show are committed to working closely with them to find ways to improve performance.”

Conan Stinks…

Jim Norton Gets another show Cancelled… Lucky Louie, Tough Crowd, Leno, where does “lil” Jimmies Kiss of death end??? oh uncle paul.

Was Jim Norton funny on Leno’s network show?

Weeks ago, when Jay Leno announced that he had hired Jim Norton, the master of contemporary cringe comedy, to be a special correspondent on his new, presumably safe-for-the-masses variety show, I was a bit shocked. The reasons? First, I had no idea Leno had such advanced and impeccable taste in comedians. Second, I thought, what in the hell is Norton, a guy who has made a career, in part, by telling strangers onstage about his gay oral sex misadventures when he was a child, having prostitutes defecate upon him and bestiality stories (not involving him) going to say on a show meant for Leno followers?

Needless to say, I watched Leno’s show last night with great interest, knowing Norton was making his first appearance. In the end, I think Norton did a stellar job of maintaining a pretty sharp edge while still fitting into the late-night network mold. He took an amazingly tired comedy topic — airline travel — and injected it with pure Norton.

Ct Patriot… Ummm i think most late night TV is Boring and Predictable… But im a big fan of Jim Norton… One of the funniest comedians working today… Leno is Funny looking…

MTV’s Jersey Shore’s Snookie Sex Tape??? & famous Punch Video

‘Jersey Shore’ secrets: Sex tapes and boob jobs. Okay, the last? Not so secret.

By Vicki Hyman/The Star-Ledger

At least two members of the cast of “Jersey Shore” have taped themselves having sex. (As opposed to MTV taping them, we guess.) During a recent photo shoot with Life & Style, both Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi and Ronnie Magro owned up to sex tapes, though Ronnie says he’s deleted them off his phone (and he didn’t say whether they involved his housemate, Sammi Giancola, whom he is still dating).

Snooki says she’d never sell her tape(s): “I don’t want people to watch me doing that,” sasy the woman who stripped to her underwear and hit on four consecutive men in a hot tub within hours of meeting them and performed back flips in a dress so tiny that her crotch had to be blurred out. “It’s a private thing.”

Vivid Entertainment founder Steven Hirsch tells L&S that a sex tape with Snooki could fetch as much as $3 million.

Meanwhile, Jenni “JWoww” Farley tells L&S that she bought herself breast implants just before her 21st birthday. “I didn’t really need to go bigger, but I wanted them. I’m really happy with them now.” So was half of Seaside Heights.
