For years I suffered from terrible, debilitating headaches that wouldn’t respond to any medication. Acetaminophen, Aspirin, and Ibuprofen were all ineffective in relieving the headaches. I’d get several of these headaches a week. The only thing I could do was to lie down and sleep it off.
Several months ago I read some of Betty’s and Mark’s stuff here on sci.med.nutrition. I decided to eliminate NutraSweet from my diet. The headaches stopped.
A couple weeks ago I was preparing a bowl of cereal and I decided to put in a couple bags of Equal. An hour or so after finishing the cereal, I got one of “those” headaches.
That was the last time I used NutraSweet. That was the last time I had one of “those” headaches (and the only time since getting off NutraSweet several months ago).
Well, that was my own personal TEST. And I’m convinced.
