"The Not So Splendid Side of
"Splenda®""
Don’t be suckered and start thinking it’s again OK to start drinking those dangerous artificially sweetened colas and soft drinks because you’ve been reading the new labels now out there that say: “No Aspartame...now sweetened with
"Splenda®”
"Splenda®" is the brand name for the no-calorie artificial sweetener, sucralose.
Again, the marketing moguls are pulling the wool over unsuspecting eyes and gaining an edge by touting "Splenda’s" baking abilities as a healthy alternative to other artificial sweeteners. Even though it costs five times as much as sugar, you can now buy
"Splenda®" by the bag to use in all your baking and cooking, too.
Marketers with big dollar advertising campaigns are really capitalizing on the North American sweet tooth-low carb industry by making you believe that with
"Splenda®" you can avoid high calorie intake without giving up anything.
However, as it seems with all consumer driven business, the bottom line is determined with the quarterly report and big business, as tradition continues to dictate, has little to do with health.
So, if you’ve been convinced of late that "Splenda®" is the way to go for you and that now you can eat all those sweet treats without giving up anything...although you may not be sacrificing the sweet taste...you may be giving up your health.
Research in animals has clearly shown that consuming products that contain
"Splenda®"/sucralose also means some not so splendid side effects, including enlarged liver and kidneys, reduced growth rate, decreased red blood cell count, up to 40% shrinkage of thymus glands, atrophy of lymph follicles in the spleen and thymus, and diarrhea.
Remember, every time someone tinkers with our food source thinking they are going to make it better, they
inevitably make it worse, yet because of the lure of profits, choose to go ahead and market it anyway.
Our bodies are not designed to ingest these "frankenfoods" and so we pay the price somewhere down the road when the body finally revolts with negative reactions, sickness and ill health.
You have the power to put good, honest, untampered, natural food sources back on the shelf. Remember, even the smallest person can make a difference by choosing not to buy all the garbage that’s out there. It’s a simple equation...when the consumer stops buying, the manufacturer stops producing.
