TOKYO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Ajinomoto Co., Inc. and its consolidated subsidiary of Ajinomoto Animal Nutrition Group, Inc. were awarded the EcoProducts Grand Prize "The Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries Prize", one of the highest honors in Japan, to commend the products for environmental protection, for their long time business efforts of L-Lysine amino acid for animal nutrition.

"The Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries Prize"

The award evaluating their animal nutrition business from the view point of sustainability is meaningful to Ajinomoto. Since being founded in 1909, they have been engaging in initiatives to resolve social issues through business. By improving economic value with local communities and society as a whole, these initiatives have contributed to the Group's growth. Ajinomoto is encouraged by the award for the evaluation of the social value of our animal nutrition business over 51 years of history. Keeping the aspiration of our founding in our hearts, Ajinomoto executives will continue to contribute to a healthy future for the humanity and the earth through products and services supported by science and technology through our overall business activities. ---From Tamotsu Iwamoto, Executive Deputy President of Ajinomoto Co., Inc. and in charge of sustainability of the group. [Iwamoto has been with Ajinomoto for the past 42 years]

One of America's greatest physicians, the late H.J. Roberts, Internist of Palm Beach, Florida, wrote a 1200 page medical text, Aspartame Disease: An Ignored Epidemic, the definitive book on complications from the use of "diet" products. It details two decades of extensive corporate-neutral research involving 1200 victims in the author's database. Even though his health at 85 was waning, he still took the time to testify in letters to both New Mexico and Hawaii legislators who were considering my bill bin to ban aspartame in both states.

He wrote: I coined the term "aspartame disease" to encompass reactions to the chemical sweetener aspartame, commonly known as NutraSweet and Equal" To place its magnitude in perspective, over two-thirds of the population now uses thousands of "diet" sodas and products--including an ever-expanding list of new ones having greater potential for adverse effects (e.g., strips placed on the tongue to freshen the breath.

For orientation about the gravity of this public health dilemma, I shall mention just a few of the published associations in aspartame reactors. They include the initiation or aggravation of diabetes mellitus, hypoglycemia, convulsions, headache, depression, other psychiatric states, hyperthyroidism, hypertension and arthritis; the simulation of multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer's disease and lupus erythematosus; increasing aspartame addiction; an apparent causative role in brain tumors; a neurologic condition in overweight young women known as pseudotumor cerebri; and even the carpal tunnel syndrome.

In comparison: Here is an example of their PR department at work in Ghana, one of the most transparent and tragic ploys, bogus marketing foreplay, and calculated corporate perfidy that I have ever seen. What insidious balderdash!

"What is the Ghana Nutrition Improvement Project?"

"Since its foundation, the Ajinomoto Group has built up a wealth of knowledge in the fields of food and amino acids, which it today utilizes to help solve the pressing issue of malnutrition in developing countries. The Ghana Nutrition Improvement Project was launched to achieve the aforementioned aspiration via a social business. Under this project, we manufacture and sell a supplement that improves the nutritional balance of weaning food, thereby helping improve the nutritional status of local children in the weaning period. [Stephen Fox: Poison those babies before they are weaned!]

Ajinomoto started this project in fiscal 2009 as part of initiatives to commemorate its centenary (Fox: but also to deceive all Africans in a long range marketing plan). The Group has since been steadily implementing the project in cooperation with the government of Ghana, the University of Ghana, and other international NGOs and corporations. Eating nutritious food is essential to the lives of people. Starting with the project in Ghana, we will continue to take on the challenge of helping improve the nutritional status of children for their brighter future."
