Book excerpt: Aspartame Disease has become a major medical and public health problem in the opinion of H.J. Roberts, M.D. More than 80 percent of complaints about foods and additives previously received by the FDA involved aspartame-sweetened products (FDA Consumer October 1988). Over 9,300 enraged consumers have volunteered such problems to this agency -- including hundreds of persons with convulsions! They are duplicated in the author's data base of over 1,200 aspartame victims.The more frequent complaints attributed to this most tested additive in history include severe headaches, confusion, memory loss, depression, dizziness, insomnia, impaired vision or blindness, behavioral changes, nausea, abdominal pain, bloody diarrhea, rashes, and even weight gain! Patients with hypoglycemia (low blood sugar attacks) and diabetes are often adversely affected by these diet products that are used to avoid sugar.Many regard Dr. Roberts as the foremost aspartamologist because of his extensive pioneering studies and publications in this field. He presents a clear overview of the problem with a minimum of medical and technical terms, coupled with scores of instructive experiences and humorous cartoons in Sweet'ner Dearest.
Download or read book Living Well with Graves Disease and Hyperthyroidism written by Mary J. Shomon and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2005-09-27 with total page 447 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From patient advocate and author of Living Well with Hypothyroidism Mary J. Shomon, here is a holistic roadmap for diagnosis, treatment and recovery for the millions of people suffering from Graves' disease and hyperthyroidism. There are an estimated 3 million-plus Americans suffering from Graves' disease and hyperthyroidism, and patient advocate Mary J. Shomon will guide them through the diagnosis and the wide-ranging treatments available. Graves' disease and hyperthyroidism are the result of the thyroid gland being overactive. This gland controls the body's metabolism, so people afflicted with the disorder can suffer from symptoms such as significant weight loss, fatigue, muscular weakness, and rapid heartbeat, among others. In addition to conventional treatments, this resource uniquely highlights holistic treatments, and through case studies and testimonials from patients and doctors, presents an honest look at the lifestyles and choices of people living with these conditions. Shomon presents the reader with a comprehensive resource that spans from diagnosis to treatment to life after treatment. She goes beyond the conventional advice of other books, utilizing patient anecdotes and, as a fellow thyroid disease patient, her own experience. Her extensive network of experts—from conventional physicians to alternative practitioners—allows for a wide range of treatment options. In addition, a comprehensive Appendix serves as a fantastic resource for patients seeking treatment and additional advice. The first edition of Living Well With Hypothyroidism (2/2000) started with a first printing of 7,500 copies and has now sold over 100,000 in the US. Shomon's The Thyroid Diet hit the New York Times extended bestseller list. Mary Shomon has been praised by doctors around the country for her medical knowledge and sensitivity to patients' needs. Barbara Bush brought attention to the plight of Graves' disease patients, announcing that she was suffering from it when she was First Lady.

Download or read book Dietary Phenylalanine and Brain Function written by WURTMAN and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains the manuscripts of the full papers and posters pre sented at the conference "Dietary Phenylalanine and Brain Function," which took place at the Park Hyatt Hotel, Washington, D.C., on May 8-10, 1987. The conference was organized by a committee that included Drs. Louis Elsas (Emory University, Atlanta), William Pardridge (UCLA), Timothy Maher (Massachusetts College of Pharmacy), Donald Schomer (Harvard), and Richard Wurtman (MIT). It was sponsored by the Center for Brain Sciences and Metabolism Charitable Trust, a foun dation which, during the past few years, had also organized seven other conferences related to interactions between circulating compounds (drugs, nutrients, hormones, toxins) and brain function. The Center's most recent other conferences were on "Melatonin in Humans" (Vienna, Austria; November 1985) and "The Pharmacology of Memory Disorders Associ ated with Aging" (Zurich, Switzerland; January 1987). The decision to organize this conference was based on the perception that major changes had recently occurred in society's uses of phenylalanine and phenylalanine-containing products, and on the belief that a meeting of scientists and physicians who work on the amino acid's neurological effects could both catalyze additional research on these effects and assist regula tory bodies in formulating appropriate public policies relating to the use of these products: phenylalanine, in both its L- and D-forms, has apparently become a popular sales item at "health-food" stores, and thus is now being consumed by a fairly large number of people, in the absence of the other.

Download or read book Pure White and Deadly written by John Yudkin and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2013-08-28 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than 40 years before Gary Taubes published The Case Against Sugar, John Yudkin published his now-classic exposé on the dangers of sugar—reissued here with a new introduction by Robert H. Lustig, the bestselling author of Fat Chance. Scientist John Yudkin was the first to sound the alarm about the excess of sugar in the diet of modern Americans. His classic exposé, Pure, White, and Deadly, clearly and engagingly describes how sugar is damaging our bodies, why we eat so much of it, and what we can do to stop. He explores the ins and out of sugar, from the different types—is brown sugar really better than white?—to how it is hidden inside our everyday foods, and how it is harming our health. In 1972, Yudkin was mostly ignored by the health industry and media, but the events of the last forty years have proven him spectacularly right. Yudkin’s insights are even more important and relevant now, with today’s record levels of obesity, than when they were first published. Brought up-to-date by childhood obesity expert Dr. Robert H. Lustig, this emphatic treatise on the hidden dangers of sugar is essential reading for anyone concerned about their health, the health of their children, and the wellbeing of modern society.
