Diet Soda... naming names...

As stated before, diet soda is not a diet product; it is a product that has been chemically altered and filled with sodium and aspartame which in turn makes you crave carbohydrates much more. One who drinks diet soda is more likely to gain weight not lose it and that has been proven on several fronts. As stated before Aspartame, once heated to 86 degrees F, turns into formaldehyde which is an absolute toxin and used to preserve “tissue specimens”. Hey I have an idea… lets all drink diet soda and this way we can preserve ourselves forever (lol).

Dr. H.J. Roberts states that once his patients stop drinking diet soda on the average, without doing any additional exercise or being on any specific diet, they lost an average of 19 pounds in one month.

Aspartame drives the blood sugar crazy so if you are a diabetic and drink diet soda thinking that you are doing a good thing, you are not. Because of the aspartic acid and phenylalanine together they act like a neurotoxin and it throws your acids levels out of whack. Treating diabetes is hard enough but by adding diet soda to the equations it only worsens the whole problem not helps it.

The company that developed this chemical was MONSANTO’S and just recently their patent expired and now there are over 5000 products out there on the market meant to kill us. No, I meant to say there are 5000 new products out there that are meant to give us substitutes to our horrible sugar problem. Sorry my bad. Here is the kicker… before a product like this gets out, I know that there is a lot of research that goes into it. They have taste testers and chemists that analyze their NEW product. I am almost certain that they knew the side effects of this chemical, they just turned a blind eye to it for the sake of the money to be made. That’s ok right? I mean the tobacco companies did it for years. They even found DOCTORS in the 1950’s that told us that smoking was actually good for us because it opens up our lung capacity.

I mean the American Diabetes Association, the American Dietetic Association and the Conference of the American College of Physicians have our best interest in mind right? Then why did they say nothing to warn us of the hazards of diet sodas. Shucks, they probably drink them also. On wait they can’t say anything to the contrary about this subject because they take money from MONSANTO. I guess we all have our price.

Senator Howard Metzenbaum wrote and presented a bill that would require warning labels on all these diet products and especially for pregnant women and children and well… what happened to that bill? It was killed even before the ink dried. The drug and chemical lobbies squelched that quickly. Money really does rule.

In a nut shell, diet soda is bad for us. It has no good and beneficial quality to it. Yea, it may taste good but what is the cost of all those bubbles and sweat taste? The cost in the end is health problems that of course they have a pill for. Hey I am beginning to get this game. Maybe I should move next to a bunch of fast food places, endorse them as substitutes for going home and cooking.
