12/04/2007: Ted from Bangkok, Thailand writes: "I have found through using urinary sugar using the Brix, of just taking aspartame foods, caused urinary pH from a person with a healthy 6.8 to about 5 within a day after taking aspartame added foods and in some medicine. While I didn't believe the incident to be real I foolishly took the same food he did and it caused my urinary sugar to about triple from normal figures which is about diabetic, while the urinary pH became very acid, bringing about metabolic acidosis for days without end.

It should be noted that aspartame poisoning breaks down into formaldehyde and methanol alcohol and one of the effects of poisoning is metabolic acidosis, and insulin resistance.

This insulin resistance can make people who are already diabetic much worse. So if there are unbelievers out there try it at your own risk taking it, and trying to get to normal is not easy either. It is therefore best to avoid aspartame in foods and drinks, especially medicine, which seems to be much worse if the aspartame was added to the N Acetyl Cysteine. For some reason the N Acetyl Cysteine were antagonistic to certain supplements that promote lowering of blood sugar, but in this case it promoted higher blood sugar and higher metabolic acidosis.

In another case I have noted some reported having acid reflux from taking aspartame added foods, since it activated metabolic acidosis.

The information from my own observation is confirmed from another place, which provided basically the same observations I did concerning this issue. What is different is that I have found an antidote which help to some extent aspartame poisoning through taking about 1000-2000 i.u. of natural vitamin E, sodium citrate and potassium citrate (three times a day for over several days) to reduce metabolic acidosis, some vitamin B complex, and granulated lecithin. There is a study that does show this condition is helped with vitamin E in a study of methanol poisoning. Vinegar is a possible methanol poisoning in my books because I have found that whenever methanol causes skin to burn, I apply the vinegar and it stopped the inflammation or burns. I suspect it is this burns which is what causes the glandular function to be damaged bringing on insulin resistance and possible remedy to stop from diabetic induced by aspartame. Although I suspect the remedy may require something like 2 tablespoon of vinegar plus 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda, or vinegar is taken alone. However, some people who DON'T LIKE vinegar in this case may take pickles (pickled cucumber) as a possible antidote. It is the acetic acid or even the acetate which reduces the glandular inflammation and the vinegar/acetate may have neutralize the effects. It is this reason why vinegar or even apple cider vinegar reduces blood sugar in certain people. While the whys are arguable, it does work for certain cases, especially in event of a food poisoning from aspartame. So if the cola companies tries to sell aspartame in school, this would not be a solution for diabetes in children, it is much worse than eating sugar. I should know, I tested the aspartame, and the sugar levels don't reduce, even from exercise! The article on effects of vinegar reducing sugar levels is posted below too, as a reference."

After learning about reading about Eating right 4 your blood type he is O- he learnt that corn and potatoes was probably best avoided. We had already given up sugar white flour product and use sprouted wheat and grains. We think his biggest issue was the corn: about 2 week of not eating corn and potatoes he belched up a corn taste and has not had to stabilize his blood sugar since,( by using the glucovita.) His own body is regulating His sugar levels. He has a good appetite and eats quite a lot of natural sugars in fruit, bananas and other fruit, lots of molasses and smaller amount of honey & maple syrup (the real stuff of course) We Eat plenty unsulfured Black strap molasses. I make cakes with molasses Sprouted wheat, eggs, baking soda, soaked walnuts and coco powder or ginger. We used molasses before his blood sugars returned to normal. He didn't seem to be adversely affected by it at all. We started using Iodine will let you know more on that later although we just started about 3 days He reports feeling less cold and thinking more clearly. I have a Question regarding cocoa powder is the bromine in it or do they add it to Chocolate bars?"

I read that it was tested by many scientists already and the result was that it is really helpful for lowering blood sugar and it is being use not only for that but also for weight loss. I haven't tried it because we don't have diabetes case in my family but if anyone of you ever tried it why don't you share your experience. This site has been really really good and helpful, just sharing what I've learned also. Thanks and more power!!!!"

Currently, I am taking ACV for allergies due to my anti-hypertensive medicine. I think it has helped me somewhat. I am hoping that long term use will further reduce incidence of allergies.

Upon searching for other remedies for diabetis for my father, I noticed that there was no mention of bitter melon or what we call ampalaya. You may want to create a category for this since it is a popular remedy here in the far east. In fact, bitter melon is prepared in different presentations as a food supplement to assist diabetics control their glucose levels. These are prepared in capsules, tea bags or leaves for boiling (unbagged tea).

Thanks and more power to you and all the sites patrons!"
