RE: The biggest enemies of our health: sugar
Great post — I like how you mention good alternatives to sugar like stevia. At the same time, there are some sugar alternatives like aspartame that can be just as bad. Thanks for the info!
The real truth about aspartame
In all the ads on aspartame they speak:
that aspartame is a natural product and consists of two amino acids,
but this is not a complete truth.
These two amino acids,
aspartic acid and phenylalanine make up 90 percent of the aspartame content,
while 10 percent makes a methyl ester,
which is converted into methanol several hours after consumption.
(all know what is methanol).
Methanol is a toxin that destroys the myelin tissue in your body.
Myelin tissue in the body performs an important function as an insulating material around the nerves,
enabling nerve signals to travel normall.
It is not recommended to inject more than 7.8 mg methanol per day.
But if you've drank a liter of a drink today that contains aspartame,
you put in your body 56 mg of methanol,
therefore seven times more than the recommended dose.
