• Hey there, Friend I was just reading some really scary, yet important info on Splenda... maybe you've heard of it, maybe you even use it... So I wanted to share the info with you... here you go: Splenda Invades the Cereal Market Splenda is now America's leading sweetener, displacing real sugar manufacturers. However, the public is starting to catch on to the potential dangers of Splenda and McNeil wisely decided to take a proactive stance and seek to give themselves a healthy image by financially supporting a health initiative. This is just another example of their deceptive marketing ploys. It's a great move on their part, as the average consumer is currently clueless about the health side effects of Splenda and this positioning will help to convince them that Splenda is harmless. However, that will not last much longer. You can't hide the truth from the public for much longer. Soon the public will learn the many hidden dangers of Splenda, not the least that it is made from phosgene, a poisonous gas. http://www.mercola.com/2005/feb/2/splenda_marketing.htm http://www.mercola.com/2004/nov/10/sweet_misery_interview.htm http://www.mercola.com/2004/apr/14/splenda_reactions.htm http://www.mercola.com/2004/jul/21/splenda.htm So what's it all mean? Well, just like every thing else, you can't mess with nature! Don't screw things up trying to make them no or low calorie... My recommendation to you... if it's not found in nature don't ingest it! Sugar however isn't really an answer either http://www.formerfatguy.com/articles/124reasons-no-sugar.asp and here's an interesting article by Jeremy Likness about the history of sugar: http://www.formerfatguy.com/articles/sugar-coated-truth.asp Your best bet is to find a good quality Stevia product and stick with that. I carry Sunrider stevia with me everywhere. It comes in a small bottle I carry in my pocket and it's very concentrated.. a little goes a long ways. if you're curious, ask me about it, or email me your phone number and I'll call you personally to speak with you about some healthy choices. if it comes down to it though.. sugar is a better choice than anything man made. Until next time, Eat Well, Be Well Rob www.formerfatguy.com
