American Whey Protein Tastes Great - Sweet Poison Acesulfame Potassium Causes Cancer, Brain Damage

Dec. 27, 2009 - PRLog -- American Whey protein powder tastes great but the sweet poison acesulfame potassium (newly labeled and mentioned hidden ingredient ) in American Whey causes cancer in animals, brain damage and kidney problems. I loved American Whey's tropical banana and bought it in 10 lb. supplies I so much enjoyed using it after workouts.

Yet when money got tight the supplement left my shelf for several months. However a few days ago I purchased and began using American Whey again.

Yet upon reading this new book on brain cancer:
 http://www.amazon.com/Excitotoxins-Taste-Russell-L-Blaylock/dp/0929173252/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1261948455&sr=1-1/&tag=motispeaforco-20

I began to look closer at the ingredients within American Whey and discovered the culprit Ace-K (Acesulfame Potassium) to my sudden heart, kidney and head problems (the last of which had been causing my head to feel swollen and my brain to feel heavy).

My preferred protein powder replacement:

I just wrote my supplier of American Whey protein powder saying below:

I need a refund for American Whey Tropical Banana 10 lb tub as it is giving me headaches, heart palpitations and pain in my left kidney.

Your website shows the following ingredients:

Warnings: Mix one ounce (one level scoop) in 8 oz. of water, milk or juice and stir with a spoon or blend.

Ingredients: 100% Cold-Filtered Isolate, Ion Exchanged whey, and Natural Flavors, Natural Sweetener Fructose, Digestive Enzyme Blend (Bromelain, Papain, Protease, Peptizyme).

Description: High Quality, Predigested Protein. Lactose Free. Bio-available Great Natural Source of High Potency Essential Amino Acids, including BCAA’s. The muscles in your body are over 80% protein in dry weight if your goal is an increase of muscle then do it with American Whey™. The ion-exchanged whey protein in this product is the most bio-available for your body. This means your body can utilize the supplementation of American Whey better than other types of protein. American Whey is also low in calories, tastes great, and mixes easily in juice, milk, or water. American Whey is also lactose free with no added sodium.

However upon receiving the 10 lb container of American Whey Tropical Banana Protein powder there was a sticker beneath the ingredients saying it also contains "Acesulfame Potassium" which has been found in studies to cause cancer in animals.

Please refund me and I will buy another protein from you without artificial chemical "poisonous sweeteners".

Sincerely,

Paul F Davis

ps. Please send me a list of powerful proteins without artificial sweetners, chemical additives and l-cysteine which has been found to hinder brain function.
