Splenda is not as harmless as McNeil Nutritionals-makers of Splenda, wants you to believe.

A mixture of sucralose, maltodextrine and dextrose (a detrimental simple sugar), each of

the not-so-splendid Splenda ingredients has downfalls. Aside from the fact

that it really isn't "sugar and calorie free," here is one big reason to

avoid the deceitful mix. Think April fools day: The day Splenda was introduced.

Splenda contains a potential poison

Splenda contains the drug sucralose. This chemical is 600 times sweeter than

sugar. To make sucralose, chlorine is used. Chlorine has a split

personality. It can be harmless or it can be life threatening.

In combo with sodium, chlorine forms a harmless "ionic bond" to yield table

salt. Sucralose makers often highlight this worthless fact to defend its'

safety. Apparently, they missed the second day of Chemistry 101 - the day

they teach "covalent" bonds.

When used with carbon, the chlorine atom in sucralose forms a "covalent"

bond. The end result is the historically deadly "organochlorine" or simply:

a Really-Nasty Form of Chlorine (RNFOC).

Unlike ionic bonds, covalently bound chlorines are a big no-no for the human

body. They yield insecticides, pesticides, and herbicides - not something

you want in the lunch box of your precious child. It's therefore no surprise

that the originators of sucralose, chemists Hough and Phadnis, were

attempting to design new insecticides when they discovered it! It wasn't

until the young Phadnis accidentally tasted his new "insecticide" that he

learned it was sweet. And because sugars are more profitable than

insecticides, the whole insecticide idea got canned and a new sweetener

called Splenda got packaged.

To hide its' origin, Splenda pushers assert that sucralose is "made from

sugar so it tastes like sugar." Sucralose is as close to sugar as WindexT is

to ocean water.

The RNFOC poses a real and present danger to all Splenda users. It is risky

because the RNFOC confers a molecule with a set of super powers that wreak

havoc on the human body. For example, Agent Orange, used in the U.S Army's

herbicidal warfare program, is a RNFOC. Exposure can lead to Hodgkin's

lymphoma and non-Hodgkins lymphoma as well as diabetes and various forms of

cancer! Other shocking examples are the war gas phosgene, chlordane and

lindane. http://www.newswithviews.com/Ellison/shane24.htm#_ftn2 The

RNFOC is lethal because it allows poisons to be fat soluble while rendering

the natural defense mechanisms of the body helpless.

A poison that is fat soluble is akin to a bomb exploding internally. It

invades every nook and cranny of the body. Cell walls and DNA - the genetic

map of human life - become nothing more than potential casualties of war

when exposed. Sucralose is only 25% water soluble.

http://www.newswithviews.com/Ellison/shane24.htm#_ftn3 Which means a vast

majority of it may explode internally. In general, this results in weakened

immune function, irregular heart beat, agitation, shortness of breath, skin

rashes, headaches, liver and kidney damage, birth defects, cancer, cancer

and more cancer - for generations!

http://www.newswithviews.com/Ellison/shane24.htm#_ftn1

McNeil asserts that their studies prove it to be safe for everyone, even

children. That's little assurance. Learning from the Vioxx debacle (and many

others highlighted in my book Health Myths Exposed) which killed tens of

thousands, we know that studies can be bought and results fabricated.

Some things are worth dying for. Splenda is not one of them. What people

think of as a food is a drug or slow poison - little distinction there. It

wouldn't be wise to bet your health on it. If safe, sucralose would be the

first molecule in human history that contained a RNFOC fit for human

consumption. This fact alone makes sucralose questionable for use as a

sweetener, if not instantly detrimental to our health. Only time will tell.

Until then, Ill stick to the safe and naturally occurring stevia plant to

satisfy my occasional sweet tooth in 2007.

Be forewarned though, as long as drugs can be legally disguised as

sweeteners, watch out for drugs being disguised as vitamins. Oh wait, they

are already doing that - think Lipitor.

[cws]

absolutely shocking this got past the FDA

i cant believe it!!!!!!! how could this happen?????

wink wink

im sure this was known already

i bet they have some money already set aside to pay the inevitable lawsuit off

and also a pre arranged agreement with their attorney for payment of services

it wouldnt suprise me one bit if all this was thought out before this product was released to the consumer

NOT a vitamin or used as a vitamin - atorvastatin (Llipitor) is used to lower cholesterol in the bloodstream. Vitamins are not used for that purpose.
