If you haven’t already carefully avoided this toxic artificial sweetener this new study will hopefully convince you to avoid products that contain it like the plague.



for your own health and that of your childre, parents and friends please take some time and read the following:

Oh, how odd. I have just clicked on the link and it provides me with everything to read on the subject. I am using internet explorer. I am sorry about that i don't know what else to suggest. These boxes are too small to paste in the articles here.

You can read and see Dr. Mercola's report on http://www.wide eye cinema, and a lot more other health hazardous products besides. Go in under the heading Health.



I do not know why Walkerscott did not name the product he is talking about but it is Aspartame a widely used food and drink sweetner.



Thanks very much for the knife sharperning.

For years it has been said that too much artificial sweetener whether saccarin based or aspartame is dangerous. It has been suggested that it is carcenogenic. But does one then die of obesity?

Seriously, there is much sense in the writings, but at the end of the day, I think a wise man called Paul made a statement that holds water two thousand years down the line 'Moderation in all things'. Take a bit of aspirin a day and you are protecting your heart, but take too much and your stomach will bleed! Or maybe it is just 'A little of what you fancy does you good' with the opposite probably being true 'Too much of what you fancy does you bad.'

To live healthily is a challenge with so many products on the market which are 'good' for you, but which happens to make money for the manufacturer.

To keep oneself fully informed is a full time job, but thanks to 'Walterscott' for reminding us that too much of anything is harmful. That is also said of 's**' I believe.
