If you are really interested in some of the research on aspartame and the controversy surrounding its initial approval by the FDA this NYT article is more in depth.

Interesting link, Mets, thanks.

As to cavities...it has been proven, at least that is what I heard, that it is best to always use a straw when drinking anything sweet, so that the sugar bypasses the teeth as much as possible thus causing less cavities.

I found it interesting that the Italian research, after all these years, appear to be the only independant ones regarding aspartame. All the others seem to be industry funded or based.

"allowed to get too hot in the sun"

A coule of high school girls - whose mum just happened to have a temperature controlled cabinet at work - did this as a high school project - there was a web site about it.

The breakdown products are pretty nasty.

They has wondered what would happen if the stuff was stored for a couple of weeks at 100 deg F (local summer temperature) - Texas I think...

I'd think twice about slipping a child a diet pop, unless medically necessary, based what Dr. Philip Landirgan, Chairman of Community and Environmental Medicine at Mt. Sinai Medical Cente had to say in this most recent article.

Are you saying aspartame and Nutrasweet are different? They are exactly the same, the latter with a trademarked name.

Aspertame is safe BUT ONCE IT REACHES 100 degrees F it breaks down into formaldyhyde and other neuro toxins.

The FAA forbids commercial airline pilots to drink nutrasweet colas due to the vision problems, seizures and stupor that has been known to happen under the influence of injesting a nutraswee beverage that at one time was allowed to get too hot in the sun, refgridgerated and later consumed.

google nutrasweet neurotoxins.

What dangerous side effects? Aspartame (Nutrasweet is one registered tradename of several) is the sweetener in Diet Coke distributed by Coca Cola, and used in many other drinks.

The National Cancer Institute, after collating data from almost 600,000 men and women, found no statistically significant link between aspartame consumption and cancer-related diseases.

As for 'scared' food - actually Sashimi grade sigh has to be caught singly on hand line, then immediately in the boat, a sharp knife is thrust thru the brain killing fish instantly - if allowed to 'drown' - it will release much lactic acid in the flesh.

Sashimi grade fish fillets will keep on ice for at least 10 days without any 'whitening' of the flesh - normal fish will rot within a few days.

Indeed nutrasweet is still a legal name, yet the patent orginally owned by Monsanto was sold years ago after the dangerous side effects were made clear.

"Scared foods"?

I've heard of frightening the daylights out of something, but never just the lights...

Or did you mean sacred...

The days when people ate 'everything but the oink' are rapidly dwindling, because we have so much surplus food here in the West.

We throw away about a third of all the food we buy, either because we cooked so much we couldn't finish the plateful, paranoia over 'best by' dates when food is still fresh enough to eat or we just bought too much and it went off. And that's only the end stage in the food production process.

We only eat the best cuts of meat, the vegetables with clean skins, fruit with no blemishes... what happens to all the apples and kidneys that didn't make the grade? Some get processed into other foods - pre-packaged pies and such like. Some get processed into animal feed and some just gets left to rot. Even as short a time ago as 40 years, people ate considerably more of an animal than they do now.

Society has become so wasteful, so 'throwaway' that we've got to relearn how to eat sensibly, and that doesn't mean starving ourselves skeletal for fashion reasons. We throw away so much good food and don't eat so many things that we have to take vitamin supplements, protein bars, indigestion and diaorrhea medicines, pills to build muscles, drinks to increase energy.... the list is endless, and pointless.

Anybody heard of the work of a Dentist named Price - who discovered that the lowest level of cavities were in communities that had diets with high levels of Vits A, D, & K - which just happens to occurs in "organ meats" - such things which were often considered "scared foods" in some cultures?

He did a lot of research that focused on full fat homogenised , unpasteurised milk, meat, "organic" sourced from grass only fed animals etc. There were claims that less heart attacks, high cholesterol etc appeared that in those who had diets high in vegetable fats, trans-fats, etc.

There is apparently an organisation based on his work, even a cook book published years ago.

The FDA is being dismantled by those government-hating Bushevites.

Welcome to the world of E-coli burgers, samonella fried chicken and all the pleasures of the gastric tract, found in the middle aisle of every grocery store.

Hey it's unAmerican unless you vote Twinkies.

Please define IC H2O- most commonly refers to intercellular water, sometimes injected, esp. in hams, etc.
Makes the pork moister; any other effects? Documentation??

What other meanings?

Artificial sweeteners:
Nutrasweet; Equal- trade names for aspartame, an artificial sweetener (not banned).
FDA recommendations- limit intake to 15 cans of diet soda per day (50mg/kg body weight)

Saccharin- limit 8.5 packets of the sweetener per day (5mg/kg body weight). Includes Sweet 'n Low, SugarTwin.

Sucralose- limit 5 cans diet soda per day. Splenda is the trade name.

Data from Mayo Clinic website- http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/diabetes-diet/NU00592
Artificial sweeteners

The 'poison" alarms all seem to come from wacky holistic medicine sites.

Thank your lucky stars that poison food, air, drug resistant infections and water are on the decline as the definitions and allowable percentages are adjusted ever higher.

can't say poison, now its unintended ingredients
can't say torture (new improved interrogation techniques)
can't say its funny but the actual Safeway graphic with its strategic "small print" is comparable to my graphic entitled 'Life'

now where is that head nurse anyway?

to be posted in Safeway stores in Metro DC area



Dear Safeway Customers,
In light of the rare inclusion of Ingredients Contrary to Human Health Opinions (IC H2O) in farm raised fish, chicken, pork and cereal products, there is no need for concern here at Safeway. This is also true for delicious disgruntled bovine syndrome New York Strip Steaks.

Hundreds of scientists agree for thousands of dollars that one would need to ingest nearly 900 lbs of IC H2O pork* to have any concern. Besides the FDA have no respect or authority to ban any food or produce product.

KIDS ! We now have sugar free candy and cookies with "You're so sweet"
Formerly named nutrasweet until it was deemed toxic

For more info: call Melomine's a friend o'mine: 888-523-4432



*Pork most successfully filters IC H2O through its kidneys.
