Hi guys, Normally I try not to start threads that aren't directly about EFT, but since there was already a discussion on asparatme I had to chime in. ;-) I'm glad to see that there's more and more awareness about the dangers of aspartame, Splenda, etc. The most comprehensive article I've seen on all the different artificial sweeteners, as well as several natural alternatives. http://www.westonaprice.org/modernfood/sugarfree_blues.html SUCRALOSE/SPLENDA: http://www.splendaexposed.com/ Sucralose Toxicity Information Center http://www.holisticmed.com/splenda/ http://www.laleva.cc/food/splenda_dangers.html www.mercola.com/2000/dec/3/sucralose_testimonials.htm This is really long, but good. Rather than an article, it's a series of letters sent in by readers of the website to Dr. Mercola, explaining the symptoms they had from eating sucralose, how the realized the cause of their health problems, etc. It will give you a good idea of the immense variety of reactions different people can have. It includes a clear colour picture of the horrible rash one woman had from eating sucralose; her skin looks like it was badly burned. ASPARTAME: www.sweetpoison.com/ An amazing site completely dedicated to the dangers of artificial sweeteners by Dr. Hull, who wrote the book called 'Sweet Poison.' http://www.laleva.cc/food/aspartame_stoddard.html http://www.laleva.cc/food/aspartame_factsheet.html An excellent summary of a lot of research http://www.laleva.cc/food/aspartame_scd.html This is fantastic article on Sudden Cardiac Death, and how consuming aspartame increases your risk for it. "Sudden Cardiac Death is not a "heart attack" or myocardial infarction, caused by clogged arteries. It's an electrical problem in which the cardiac conduction system that generates the impulses regulating the heart suddenly outputs rapid or chaotic electrical impulses, or both. The heart ceases its rhythmic contractions, the brain is starved of oxygen and the victim loses consciousness in seconds…" http://www.mercola.com/article/aspartame/dangers.htm http://www.mercola.com/article/aspartame/fraud.htm A history of how – despite many studies showing the dangers – aspartame got its legal clearance to manufacture and sell. http://www.holisticmed.com/aspartame/ I hope some of this info is helpful.
