Aspartame Dangers
🧘Mental/Physical Health 🏋🏼♂️
When heated to 86 degrees F (body temp is 98.6) it releases free methanol that breaks down to formic acid and formaldehyde - a deadly neurotoxin.
The FDA refused to approve its use as it causes cancer and diabetes.
Donald Rumsfeld was CEO of Searle, the conglomerate that manufactured Aspartame. For 16 years approval was refused - until Rumsfeld got into the WH.
Starting to think sugar was demonised to get people to use artificial sweeteners.
Got this info from "The Fourth Reich" by Jim Marrs.
Interesting. Thx for sharing u/undine53/. I didn't know much about Aspartame. So I did a little research and found this: https://www.nbcnews.com/health/cancer/foods-contain-aspartame-artificial-sweetener-possible-carcinogen-rcna93913
For those interested, here are some of the common foods that include Aspartame. I wanted to find out so I could make sure to avoid them.
Tabletop sweeteners, including NutraSweet, Equal and Sugar Twin.
Beverages and drink mixes, such as Diet Coke, Coke Zero, Diet Snapple, Fanta Zero, Sprite Zero, Crystal Light and Wyler’s Light.
Sugar-free gum, including Trident, Extra, Wrigley’s and Mentos gum.
Gelatin-based products, including sugar-free Jell-O and Royal Gelatin.
Syrups, including Mrs. Butterworth’s Sugar Free Syrup and Log Cabin Sugar Free Syrup.
Good info - thanks!
I never used those but changed to Stevia and Xylitol for a while. Gone back to using sugar (mostly unprocessed) in small amounts. All the people I knew when I was growing up used white sugar in drinks and cooking, all stayed healthy and lived to their 90's. Speaks volumes.
sure does!!
