Common Sweetener Explodes Internally
Filed under: Type 1, Type 2, Childhood, Adult Onset, Diet, Research, Opinion
Shane Ellison, an organic chemist known as the people's chemist, warns the public about a popular sweetener. He bravely hypothesizes that a commonly used sweetener may "explode internally". He uses this term to describe the potential to damage many parts of the body such as our genetic map known as DNA - deoxyribonucleic acid.
Manufacturers of the popular sweetener were furious over his accusation. They claim that the information included in Shane's article contains many inaccuracies and false information. They asked him to discontinue any further dissemination of these false and damaging statements. They continued by saying that if he fails to take these actions promptly, that they would consider the need for further legal action. Undeterred by such threats, Shane asserts that he is entitled to his own "hypothesis." Readers should understand that he is making no definitive statements. Instead, he is expressing his grave concern over this drug disguised as a sweetener. He feels that consumers have a right to know the whole story behind what may be a very dangerous scam in the artificial sweetener business - or not.
Shane holds a master's degree in organic chemistry. He is internationally recognized as an authority on therapeutic nutrition. Check out his life saving health briefs and natural cures to see for yourself if he's crying wolf or if he's got a scientific leg to stand on.
Sisters, and Cheerios, Saving Hearts
Filed under: Prevention, Daily news
Heart disease is the #1 killer of both men and women in North America, but there's one particular group the it seems to affect more profoundly: African American women. To help bring awareness to this problem, Cheerios and General Mills have established a program called Sisters Saving Hearts, and they've recently awarded 5 African American women $25,000 in grants for their efforts in bringing awareness to important health issues like heart health, heart disease and obesity. Although large corporations like Cheerios have lots of money to throw around, I think it's amazing when they support the community and bring attention to important health issues.
