One of the most prolific, known as streptococcus mutans, is the one that causes all that sticky plaque. In the last 7000 years, a wide variety of substances have been utilized to get rid of it. The Eqyptians created a tooth cream by “mixing powdered ashes of oxen hooves with myrrh, burnt egg shells, pumice, and water.” The Persians added gypsum and the shells of burnt oysters and snails. The well-to-do in 18th century England tried borax, but that was not kind to the enamel, or the oral mucosa –  the membrane in the mouth’s lining and one of the most absorbent tissues in the body.

Today, the American toothpaste marketplace is a $1.6 billion dollar business. Unfortunately, the ingredients in most commercial toothpastes, and even in some who claim to be “natural” may contain a bevy of toxic ingredients, reports CornucopiaFDA approved chemicals in toothpastes, even the “natural” ones can include paraben preservatives, sodium lauryl sulfate, artificial flavors, colors or sweeteners, carrageenan, and diazolidnyl urea. These compounds are endocrine disruptors, skin irritants, and suspected or known carcinogens. Why allow these in your mouth, when you can make your own great tasting toothpaste that can heal your cavities, help prevent gum disease and whiten your teeth without those nasty toxins? Here’s a recipe from Holisiticlivingtips.com:

Ingredients:

3 tablespoons of baking soda

3 tablespoons of extra virgin coconut oil

1 tablespoon of xylitol

1 tablespoon of neem powder

15 drops of mint essential oil

Make your paste:

It’s recommended that you use a glass jar when making your truly natural and effective toothpaste. And it’s as easy as simply mixing everything together! Keep in mind that using extra virgin coconut oil is very important, as it has been shown to have antimicrobial effects. Neem powder provides the benefits helping prevent gum disease and bad breath, says Stylecraze.com. It also helps reduce plaque and cavities due to its “antibacterial, antiseptic, antimicrobial, and anti-inflammatory properties.”

Although the xylitol can safely sweeten the taste of your toothpaste, it provides additional oral health benefits, according to Authoritynutrition.com. The plaque creating streptococcus mutans bacteria can literally be starved to death by xylitol. Saliva is increased by using xylitol and that additional saliva helps with teeth mineralization. Xylitol also helps prevent gum disease.

Baking soda is helpful especially if you have stains on your teeth, as it can help remove discoloration, according to Newhealthguide.org. It’s alkaline properties “release free radicals that attack teeth stains,” and “has a bleach-like action.”  Essential oils are for more than aroma. Peppermint essential oil can help reduce anaerobic bacteria, which, if they proliferate, can cause gum disease. Spearmint essential oil has antiseptic qualities and can sooth the oral mucosa. Follow more news on natural remedies at Remedies.news.

It’s recommended to use this toothpaste three times a day. Oral health is so important to your overall health and self esteem. If you’re making every effort to eat healthy foods without chemicals, GMOs or pesticides, wouldn’t you want to make the same effort for the teeth that are chewing it?

Check out the label on your current toothpaste and see what it says. You may be unpleasantly surprised. But now, you have the resources to change brands.

Chemotherapy, flu shots, cigarettes and diet soda – what do all these have in common? /sweetenersnews/2017-01-23-chemotherapy-flu-shots-cigarettes-and-diet-soda-what-do-all-these-have-in-common.html /sweetenersnews/2017-01-23-chemotherapy-flu-shots-cigarettes-and-diet-soda-what-do-all-these-have-in-common.html#respond Wed, 30 Nov -0001 00:00:00 +0000 http://162.244.66.231/sweetenersnews/2017-01-23-chemotherapy-flu-shots-cigarettes-and-diet-soda-what-do-all-these-have-in-common.html Are you living in a chemical matrix? Do you think the commercials on television for medications are real? Are you one of those people who believes cancer can be cured with a pill, a vaccine or a volatile chemical concoction that’s “dripped” into your blood? Are you that person who always says, “Everything in moderation,” and then goes about your merry way, eating fast food, getting flu shots, smoking cigarettes, drinking diet soda, and asking the oncologist if he sees any “dark spots” on your x-rays? That “dark spot” is your entire lifestyle, and if you don’t change it, no chemical medicine on planet Earth can save you – not now, and not ever.

Chemotherapy was originally derived from deadly mustard gas used as chemical warfare in World War I

Did you know that 75 percent of MDs and oncologists would never use chemotherapy on themselves or their relatives? Why? They know that there’s only a 2.3 percent average chance that it works, and for the rest of humanity, it destroys the entire human immune system and creates new cancers in the blood and body. It’s true; cancer is the uncontrolled growth and errant replication of cells that are exposed to an overload of chemicals, synthetics, heavy metal toxins and other carcinogens. Guess what’s in flu shots, diet soda and cigarettes?

Chemotherapy “alkylating agents” are composed of tetrazines and nitrogen mustards – chemicals that lead to other cancers. So, while you stave off certain bad cell divisions, you destroy healthy gut flora and the entire endocrine system, throwing off your hormonal balance and polluting the blood, heart and brain with carcinogens, which are what caused your cancer in the first place.

Flu shots contain mercury and formaldehyde – two of the most deadly neurotoxins known to medical science

Formaldehyde is a dangerous environmental pollutant that is used to embalm dead people in order to preserve their corpses. Formaldehyde is ranked as one of the most hazardous compounds to human health, and can cause liver damage, gastrointestinal issues, reproductive deformation and respiratory distress. You thought you got a little bit of the flu when you got your flu jab? That was your reaction to the formaldehyde!

Formaldehyde is a well-established neurotoxin that is detrimental to learning, behavior and memory. The levels of formaldehyde in the brain increase substantially with most neurodegenerative disorders. Coincidence? Did you know that the CDC has the nerve to recommend flu shots to pregnant women? That is totally insane.

Scientists and vaccine manufacturers use formaldehyde to “deaden” or weaken the influenza virus strains, but those viruses can lay dormant for extended periods of time and then suddenly “wake up” when fed by viral proteins (hemagglutinin) in your blood, especially when the virus sticks to cells lining the respiratory tract. That’s when the virus sheds its “coat.” The viral RNA enters the nucleus of the host cell and literally hijacks it.

Injecting formaldehyde into the body can cause blindness, brain damage, seizures, and yes, even cancer. Flu shots can lead to facial paralysis, as explained in the “post-marketing experience” section on the vaccine insert. Have you ever read that insert? Take a look right here.

Then, your body has to contend with massive amounts of mercury, which have been injected into your muscle tissue. Your body reacts violently as your immune system goes into a state of complete and utter panic. It’s called fight or flight. Why? Mercury is the most toxic non-radioactive element on earth. According to the CDC, no amount of mercury injected into the body has been determined as being too much, but eating or drinking mercury (like in fish or water) is very dangerous. Flu shots still contain massive amounts of mercury, a most potent neurotoxin, listed as thimerosal. However, thimerosal is just a fancy name for an anti-fungal chemical compound (C9H9HgNaO2S) which consists of at least 50 percent mercury.

Mercury tests conducted on vaccines at the Natural News Forensic Food Lab using high-end laboratory instrumentation have revealed a shockingly high level of toxic mercury in an influenza vaccine (flu shot) made by GlaxoSmithKline (lot #9H2GX). Tests conducted document mercury in the Flulaval vaccine at a shocking 51 parts per million, or over 25,000 times higher than the maximum contaminant level of inorganic mercury in drinking water set by the EPA.

Cigarettes or diet soda – which gives you cancer faster?

Artificial sweeteners are just that: artificial. That means your body is completely fooled into thinking it’s food because it tastes sweet and it’s entering your body with other food or beverages. Some synthetic, lab-made sweeteners like aspartame, sucralose and sorbitol can remain inside your cleansing organs for weeks, months and even years. Aspartame has been found lodged in the brains of children. Aspartame’s toxic effects are cumulative, building up over time. This complex molecule is made up of 50 percent phenylalanine, 40 percent aspartic acid and 10 percent methanol, and each of these substances can be dangerous to humans as they work together in the body. In children with the PKU phenylektoneuric gene (PKU), aspartame damages the developing brain.

Cigarettes, on the other hand, are loaded with formaldehyde, pesticides, fiberglass (it’s in the filter), aluminum and other deadly heavy metal toxins.

The new Splenda Essentials cleverly adds vitamin B and antioxidants to its core ingredient sucralose, a non-nutritive sweetener that does not grow in sugar fields, but is rather manufactured in laboratories as a synthetic compound. That’s right: At some point during the manufacturing process, the natural sugar disappears, and what remains are chlorinated atoms that are bulked up with dextrose and maltodextrin. You see, Sucralose is produced by substituting three chlorine atoms for three hydroxyl groups. Sucralose is not approved for use in most European countries, where national healthcare programs are prominent. Go figure.

So, now you’re asking: What’s the big deal with ingesting synthetic food agents? The Japanese Food Sanitation Council reports that up to 40 percent of ingested sucralose is absorbed and can concentrate in the liver, kidney and gastrointestinal tract. Can you say, “Irritable bowel syndrome, ulcers and cancer polyps,” three times, really fast?

Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. wants to pull deadly mercury out of all flu shots

The one and only Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., who was named one of Time magazine’s “Heroes for the Planet” in May of 2010, just authored an incredible, mind-blowing book entitled, Thimerosal: Let the Science Speak: The Evidence Supporting the Immediate Removal of Mercury — a Known Neurotoxin — from Vaccines, and has now been appointed by President Donald J. Trump to run the new Vaccine Safety Commission for the United States of America. Get ready for the most violent chemicals to be removed from American medicine, especially the flu shot.

Let’s all stop eating, drinking and injecting chemicals while pretending it’s okay – because it’s not okay. Find organic truth in everything, from food to medicine. It’s out there. (Read more censored news at Censored.news)

Aspartame in diet soda linked to significant health issues, tumors /sweetenersnews/2017-01-23-aspartame-linked-to-health-issues-tumors-diet-soda.html /sweetenersnews/2017-01-23-aspartame-linked-to-health-issues-tumors-diet-soda.html#respond Wed, 30 Nov -0001 00:00:00 +0000 http://162.244.66.231/sweetenersnews/2017-01-23-aspartame-linked-to-health-issues-tumors-diet-soda.html They’re a popular mealtime beverage for millions of people who believe that by drinking them, they’re avoiding the pitfalls of sugar consumption. But diet soda pop is neither healthy nor safe, as research continues to show that its primary sweetening constituent in most cases, aspartame, is a damaging neurotoxin that can lead to a host of chronic health issues, including cancer.

The largest study of its kind ever conducted on aspartame was put together by researchers from the University of Iowa. They looked at 60,000 women who consumed aspartame-laden diet beverages over the course of 10 years and found that those who consume two or more diet drinks per day are significantly more prone than other women to develop cardiovascular disease — and to die from it.

The paper compared the health outcomes of women who consume diet beverages to those who don’t, observing that those who do are 30 percent more likely to suffer some kind of cardiovascular event such as a heart attack or stroke. Among those who suffer such a fate, those who consume aspartame are 50 percent more likely to die from it compared to non-diet beverage drinkers. (Related: Learn about other toxic ingredients at Ingredients.news)

Dr. Ankur Vyas, lead investigator of the study, noted that this is one of the largest studies ever to look at aspartame, and that the findings are “consistent with some previous data, especially those linking diet drinks to metabolic syndrome.”

“On average, women who consumed two or more diet drinks a day were younger, more likely to be smokers, and had a higher prevalence of diabetes, high blood pressure, and higher body mass index,” the paper explained.

Aspartame, artificial sweeteners make people fat

It is hardly surprising, then, that diet soda sales have continued to plummet year after year as research such as this continues to emerge. Folks are waking up to the dangers of aspartame and switching to healthier alternatives like local honey and stevia extract. Not only is aspartame dangerous in these many ways, but it doesn’t even do the one thing that most people falsely believe it does — help them to lose weight.

There are a number of reasons for this, not the least of which include the fact that artificial sweeteners like aspartame do not activate the food rewards pathway in the brain that tells people that they’re full, and that it’s time to stop eating. Instead, diet soda consumers can chug can after can, and bottle after bottle, of their favorite chemical-laced soft drink and simply not stop.

Aspartame specifically has also been shown in studies to actually make people more hungry than if they simply consumed sugar. Since anything that tastes sweet enhances appetite, the hunger-promoting effects of aspartame end up leading people who consume it to also consume other foods — and lots of them!

There is also evidence to suggest that consuming aspartame increases fat storage in the body. Since phenylalanine and aspartate, the two chemical components of aspartame, interfere with insulin and leptin, both of which control how fat is handled by the body, their consumption actually causes people to pack on more pounds rather than shed them.

And then there’s the science suggesting that aspartame could increase the risk of brain tumors. A 1996 study published in the Journal of Neuropathology & Experimental Neurology identified a strong correlation between aspartame consumption and brain tumors in mice, leading the researchers of that study to conclude that “there is need for reassessing the carcinogenic potential of aspartame.”

Sugar industry promotes obesity, diabetes and heart disease /sweetenersnews/2017-01-21-sugar-industry-promotes-obesity-diabetes-heart-disease-and-cancer.html /sweetenersnews/2017-01-21-sugar-industry-promotes-obesity-diabetes-heart-disease-and-cancer.html#respond Wed, 30 Nov -0001 00:00:00 +0000 http://162.244.66.231/sweetenersnews/2017-01-21-sugar-industry-promotes-obesity-diabetes-heart-disease-and-cancer.html Big Sugar first began its campaign against reality in 1956, shortly after President Eisenhower was photographed putting artificial sweeteners in his coffee. The President said his doctor advised he stop putting sugar in his coffee if he wanted to stay thin.

In response, the sugar industry created advertisements that maintained no singular food is fattening, and so the mantra was born: a calorie is a calorie. The ads declared that there was no difference between calories from steak or sugar. There is a degree of truth to that: if you were to eat a surplus of calories daily for a sustained period of time, you would gain weight — even if all you were eating was steak or vegetables. Calories are, at their core, a unit of energy.

However, what those calories are comprised of can have very different effects on your body. (RELATED: Learn more about harmful food ingredients at Ingredients.news)

What actually happens when you eat sugar

So when you eat sucrose, also known as table sugar, your digestive tract breaks it down into fructose and glucose. It is then transported directly to the liver via the portal vein. Fructose (and high fructose corn syrup) are especially problematic for the body: your liver will keep absorbing the fructose, even when its energy stores are full. This leads to fat deposits in the liver, and more fat circulating in your bloodstream — which raises triglycerides and cholesterol, and in turn, raises the risk for conditions like heart disease and type-2 diabetes.

Liver fat may also decrease insulin’s ability to do it’s job, which increases the risk of diabetes. And when insulin isn’t working well,  the amount of fat the liver sends out into the blood also increases. It creates a rather vicious cycle where the more sugar you eat, the sicker you become — and the less capable your body is of recovering from it.

(Related: Learn more about what you’re eating at Fresh.news)

Countless studies have pointed to sugar intake as a means of developing insulin resistance. For example, a 2007 study that was published in The Journal Of Biological Chemistry found that sucrose-sweetened water induced insulin resistance, exacerbated memory deficits and increased amyloid plaque formation in mice with Alzheimer’s disease. The team noted that their research indicated that dietary sugar plays a plausible role in the development of Alzheimer’s.

Another study found that feeding sucrose to normal, healthy rats caused a significant loss of insulin sensitivity. And you can bet there are more; decades of research have shown that sugar can, and is, harmful. As The New York Times reports, “By the 1960s, researchers in these fields had clearly demonstrated that different carbohydrates, like glucose and fructose, are metabolized differently, leading to different hormonal and physiological responses, and that fat accumulation and metabolism were influenced profoundly by these hormones.”

The detrimental health effects of sugar consumption

In spite of the understood biological processes involved that clearly demonstrate at least one pathway for sugar to cause insulin resistance and other health issues — the industry, and even the American Diabetes Association (ADA) — are clutching their pearls of denial closer than ever. A 2014 article from the ADA even went so far as to declare that there is no evidence to suggest that “any dietary or added sugar has a unique or detrimental impact relative to any other source of calories on the development of obesity or diabetes.” This sentiment is echoed throughout the nutrition industry: a calorie is a calorie. And yet, actual biology dictates that this sentiment is a fallacy.

Research links sugar consumption to everything from to obesity, diabetes, heart disease, cancer, and even Alzheimer’s disease. This is not new, and the research has been going on for decades. But, there is always someone you can pay off.

In the 1970s, Fred Stare — founder of the Harvard School of Public Health — was paid off by the sugar industry to sing the praises of sugar and absolve the substance of its health crimes in a lengthy journal supplement.

In 2016, it was revealed that the last five decades of research on sugar have largely been influenced by — you guessed it — the sugar industry. Internal documents revealed that industry big-wigs were paying off scientists to play down the ill effects of sugar all the way back in 1967.

The food industry’s hold over nutrition science continues to persist to this day, preventing real research from being conducted and encouraging the consumption of a substance they know is harmful.

Tap Water, Vaccines, Artificial Sweeteners and Cigarettes – What do they ALL have in common? /sweetenersnews/2015-11-16-tap-water-vaccines-artificial-sweeteners-and-cigarettes-what-do-they-all-have-in-common.html /sweetenersnews/2015-11-16-tap-water-vaccines-artificial-sweeteners-and-cigarettes-what-do-they-all-have-in-common.html#respond Wed, 30 Nov -0001 00:00:00 +0000 http://162.244.66.231/sweetenersnews/2015-11-16-tap-water-vaccines-artificial-sweeteners-and-cigarettes-what-do-they-all-have-in-common.html A carcinogen is defined as a substance capable of causing cancer in living tissue.

Tap Water–Sodium fluoride, the type of fluoride used in tap water across America today, is an industrial byproduct that doubles as insecticide, which was first used by the Nazis to keep the Jews weak and unable to rebel in the concentration camps of World War II. Yet today’s food and water contain some of the exact same ingredients, purposely, that do chronic health damage to humans, in the short and long-term. Though ignorant proponents of fluoride mean well, they do not understand the history of fluoride, sodium-fluoride that is, rather than the naturally occurring kind of fluoride that dentists across America say helps your teeth. Any person who promotes fluoridated water and knows that it’s really sodium fluoride has an insidious agenda. Sodium fluoride is an inorganic chemical compound, known as the formula NaF, and is less expensive than potassium fluoride. Many industrial plants in China export sodium fluoride in order to get rid of it due to the high toxicity to the environment. Why would the US purchase and import known carcinogens to use in the municipal water supply? In a 1986 report, the annual worldwide consumption of NaF was estimated to be several million tonnes, just imagine where we are today.

tap water

Even toothpastes commonly contain sodium fluoride, not the naturally occurring fluoride the public is told. A variety of chemical applications involve the use of sodium fluoride, including using it as a cleaning agent or as a stomach poison for plant-feeding insects. These inorganic fluorides, like fluorosilicates, inhibit enzymes in humans and prevent phosphate transfer in regards to oxidative metabolism. Aqueous solutions of sodium fluoride are rapidly and extensively absorbed. These fluorides interfere with electron transport and calcium metabolism. This very calcium humans need for maintaining cardiac membrane potentials and for regulating coagulation. This is why so many elderly Americans are on blood thinner, because they drank tap water their whole lives. There are no recommendations and NO safety limits even suggested by the CDC, EPA or FDA regarding how much tap water a human should drink in a given day, especially children, infants, and pregnant women. (http://www.truthwiki.org/fluoride/)

 

Vaccines–The influenza inoculation is administered to try to help people become temporarily immune to specific influenza viruses that change completely and unpredictably from season to season, region to region, and from year to year. Popular influenza vaccines like Fluzone, FluLaval and Fluvirin all contain the known neurotoxin mercury. Some flu shot brochures go so far as to promote the flu vaccines by writing that “… the viruses in the flu shot are killed (inactivated), so you cannot get the flu from a flu shot.” Clearly, the diction contradicts itself by saying first that the virus is “killed” and then putting the word “inactivated” right next to that in parenthesis, which does NOT mean killed, it means the virus is “deadened” or “weakened” or simply “deactivated” because they suspend it using formaldehyde. A virus can lay dormant, trapped in the intramuscular tissue in which it was injected. Meanwhile, the human immune system can panic (fight or flight) trying to look for the invading pathogens. This is where the medical community and the CDC convince hundreds-of-millions of people to accept the theory that when your body recognizes the virus and other pathogens, it will rush to create antibodies to destroy it and then you will be immune; however, formaldehyde is a pickling CHEMICAL used to preserve cadavers and is highly toxic to the nervous system. Injecting formaldehyde into the body (intramuscular injections) can cause blindness, brain damage and seizures, not to mention cancer. Formaldehyde is ranked one of the most hazardous compounds to human health and can cause liver damage, gastrointestinal issues, reproductive deformation, and respiratory distress.

Plus, formaldehyde has been known to fail to deactivate the virus the vaccine is intended to prevent, thus enabling a live virus to enter your blood and infect your system–and then there’s deadly mercury and even aluminum for the central nervous system and brain with which to contend. Mercury tests conducted on vaccines at the Natural News Forensic Food Lab using high-end laboratory instrumentation have revealed a shockingly high level of toxic mercury in an influenza vaccine (flu shot) made by GlaxoSmithKline (lot #9H2GX). Tests conducted document mercury in the Flulaval vaccine at a shocking 51 parts per million, or over 25,000 times higher than the maximum contaminant level of inorganic mercury in drinking water set by the EPA. The tests were conducted by the Health Ranger via ICP-MS using a 4-point mercury calibration curve for accuracy. The concentration of mercury found in this GSK flu shot was 100 times higher than the highest level of mercury ever tested in contaminated fish, still vaccines are injected directly into the body, making them many times more toxic than anything ingested orally. In fact, mercury consumed orally is easily blocked by eating common foods like strawberries or peanut butter, both of which bind with and capture about 90% of dietary mercury, according to REAL science researched by the Health Ranger, Mike Adams. (http://www.truthwiki.org/flu-shot-influenza-vaccine/)

Artificial Sweeteners–Artificial Sweetener Disease (ASD) is sweeping across America, affecting tens of thousands of consumers, and Western medicine calls it anything but what it really is, so that doctors can prescribe expensive pharmaceuticals and set up “check up” appointments for the following weeks. Call it recurring headaches, unbearable migraines, depression, anxiety, muscle pain, arthritis flare ups, buzzing or ringing in the ears, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), Crohn’s disease, inflammation, even acid reflux, but don’t call it ASD, or the patient may stop consuming synthetic sweeteners, and then not schedule more doctor visits. The symptoms of ASD can change overnight, depending on how much chemical sweetener you consume, and which ones. Some combinations are especially toxic. Consumers can go from a migraine headache to vomiting or from vision problems to an upset stomach. Many people experience central nervous system disorders, cramping, nervous twitches and abnormal reflexes. It all started when Ronald Reagan took office in 1980. He immediately fired the head of the FDA, under advisement from Donald Rumsfeld (CEO of Searle Pharmaceutical at the time), and hired Dr. Arthur Hull Hayes, Jr., who auspiciously approved aspartame. It was the decade of the diet craze, and Rumsfeld and his constituents made a fortune off the artificial sweetener which had been banned for decades due to laboratory testing results proving it was carcinogenic. The same FDA tainted approval process gave way to sucralose in 1991, and then sorbitol in 2003. Gulf War Syndrome is mainly ASD!

It is not a coincidence that a wave of fibromyalgia cases hit the American troops during the Gulf War. Studies revealed that drinking diet sodas in the 120 degree heat lead to serious health repercussions. It was cleverly chalked up under the umbrella term “Gulf War Syndrome,” but the same problems are occurring for troops in Iraq and Afghanistan now. It is also no coincidence that 4 out of 5 fibromyalgia cases affect women, who are more likely to eat diet foods and consume diet drinks than men. The popular saying that “there’s not enough artificial sweetener in any specific product to cause health concerns” is a lie, especially now that in 2011 there are synthetic sweeteners in over 25% of all food, drink, gum and candy available. This cumulative effect has created ASD, and thanks to little or no regulation of chemical agents in food, it’s not going away any time soon. There is no prescription drug, and there never will be one, that cures the problems that artificial sweeteners create.

Cigarettes and Heavy Metal Toxins–Did you know that certain chocolate (cacao) powders sold today contain alarmingly high amounts of lead (.5ppm), cadmium (2.4ppm), copper (45ppm) and aluminum (115ppm)? What does this overload, over time, do to the brain and CNS, the central nervous system? Now imagine smoking these heavy metals in cigarettes every 45 minutes all day long, every day, every week, every month, for years. Those heavy metals float into the body as vapors, bypassing digestion and destroying organs, health, immunity, energy, and happiness. Chemical additives in pesticides and herbicides are used to kill hornworms that eat tobacco plants and weeds that choke them out and cut into profits for Big Tobacco. Top cigarette brands have been tested in a laboratory and aluminum comes in at a whopping 125 parts per billion! Could that be a leading cause of Alzheimer’s Disease? What about .3 ppb lead?

Carcinogens – why they are allowed in the food, water, and personal care products you use every day

It’s obvious to all health enthusiasts that the FDA, the CDC and the AMA, American Medical Association, are not out for the public’s best interest, but are rather just bureaucratic businesses that legislate according to their own investments and the gifts that come from lobbyists who collude with them behind closed doors. There is no conspiracy here, but just bad information about bad products and chemical ingredients in everything from GMO food to fluoridated tap water to toxic flu shots to DOMESTIC, COMMERCIAL CIGARETTES. You want to quit the poison regimen and watch your health detriment dissipate faster than a speeding bullet?

By matching the taste of sweetness without the calories, artificial sweeteners became immensely popular for people afflicted by obesity, diabetes and cardiovascular problems. Once the artificial sweetener saccharin was deemed probably carcinogenic, sugar substitutes fell from their health throne.

Speaking from their own health throne, the FDA has certified only five artificial sweeteners — saccharin, aspartame, sucralose, acesulfame K and neotame. Regardless, what the FDA deems “safe”, doesn’t necessarily reflect what is safe. There are many different ways artificial sweeteners impair human health.  Consider the following a list of the most frightening ways artificial sugars kills more than a sweet tooth.(1)

Impairs metabolic processes of the body

Consuming large amounts artificial sweeteners can cause metabolic syndrome, which is associated with many conditions. Some of these include increased blood sugar and pressure, high blood cholesterol and excessive belly fat. In critical cases, obesity can lead to diabetes and chronic heart ailments.(2, 3)

Hormonal imbalances

Artificial sweeteners can disarray your hormones. An impaired metabolism can cause the endocrine glands to dysfunction, which can result in an abnormal secretion of hormones. This is because of the way insulin is released. Although sweeteners are devoid of calories, the pancreas responds to them as if they were natural sugars by producing insulin. However, in the absence of any glucose to metabolize, the insulin is retained by the body. This causes a condition known as hyperinsulinism.  In its persistent state, hyperinsulinism can cause a person to lose strength and gain weight.(2, 4)

Weight gain

It is a common misconception that artificial sweeteners can help people lose weight. An insulin spike triggered by consuming sweeteners can increase food cravings. Consequently, people end up eating more and gaining weight. A heart-related study in San Antonio demonstrated that people who drank artificially sweetened beverages had a higher body mass index and greater fat retention than those who avoided these beverages. The author of The Supercharged Hormone Diet, Natasha Turner, states that artificially sweetened foods aren’t as filling, which leaves the person dissatisfied and makes them eat more. These facts put the fat in, well, facts.(2, 4)

Changes taste

The way artificially sweeteners taste is markedly different from the way natural sugars taste. In reality, artificial sweeteners are much sweeter than their natural brethren. Neotame, for example, is about 7,000 times sweeter than natural sugar. Even stevia, which is obtained from the sugarleaf herb, is hundreds of times sweeter than natural sucrose. It’s dangerous to expose taste buds to high levels of sweetness. The palate builds a tolerance with each sip and bite. This can make people crave sweeter foods and develop a dislike for other flavors.(4)

Alters intestinal bacteria

An ecosystem of bacteria resides in the pits of your stomach. Some bacteria aid digestion, whereas other strands are actually harmful. Some bacteria can isolate certain substances from ingested food and convert them into fats. Hence, a large population of gut bacteria means a high fat deposition. Artificial sweeteners can promote the growth of gut bacteria, thereby increasing body fat. The worst part is that fat becomes deposited beneath skin in the most unwelcome places — hips, thighs and belly.(4, 5, 6)

Increased risk of diabetes

Diabetics gravitated towards saccharin and other sweeteners because it is claimed to have zero calories. Artificial sweeteners lost favor among diabetics when it was discovered that fake sugar induced hormone imbalances. A Nurses’ Health Study conducted by the American Society of Nutrition in 2013 showed that people who regularly consumed artificially sweetened drinks had a much higher chance of developing type 2 diabetes than those who did not. In addition, artificial sugars can boost obesity and alter gut bacteria, both of which are directly related to the onset of type 2 diabetes.(2)

Increased risk of hypertension and cardiovascular disease

Sweeteners like saccharin and aspartame can interfere significantly with the metabolic functioning of your body. When the physiological processes slow down, blood circulation is affected in a major way too. The heart beats faster, which sparks high blood pressure and hypertension. Studies show that prolonged use of artificially sweetened drinks can lead to fatal problems in the long run, including coronary heart disease and heart attacks.

Brain poison

Many artificial sweeteners have come under the scanner for damaging the nervous system, including the brain. Aspartame is the most notorious in this regard. This sweetener is an organic compound that consists of three components — phenylalanine, aspartic acid and methanol. These compounds have been independently shown to damage brain tissue cells. Further, they can slow down the responses of neurotransmitters, which impairs human reflexes. Heavy use of artificial sweeteners can impair motor control as well.(2, 4)

Contaminates environment

Although artificial sweeteners are organic compounds, they are not completely biodegradable. This is because they are designed to withstand the metabolic processes of the body; they do not dissociate and release energy in the form of calories. However, this has a negative impact in the environment since natural degradation processes cannot split them. A study conducted in 2009 published in the journal Environmental Science and Technology showed that municipal water bodies contained traces of acesulfame and sucralose. This could prove hazardous in the long run. By polluting water sources, artificial sweeteners merge into natural biogeochemical cycles, which will have an adverse impact on the environment. The best way to contain the threat is to control the consumption of artificial sweeteners now.(4)

Possibly carcinogenic

The first artificial sweetener to be developed was saccharin. In an early lab rat study, saccharin was shown to possibly induce cancers when used in combination with cyclamate. The National Toxicology Program reported that the physiology that causes cancers in rats is not applicable to humans. Nevertheless, it is not yet known whether to artificial sweeteners can cause cancer in people. Since humans are one animal among many, it is prudent to steer clear of these sweeteners until more concrete results are discovered.(5)

The goal of artificial sweeteners to match the taste of sugar without imparting calories was said to have the best intentions in mind. Unfortunately, the unforeseen health risks attached to artificial sweeteners outweigh the goal to reduce weight. In many cases, artificial sweeteners actually promote weight gain. The best steps you can take to lose weight is to literally take steps.  Artificial sweeteners write a check for zero calories that your body can’t cash.
