Aspartame Health Risk

Posted on November 29, 2010

Aspartame (E951) is an artificial sweetener, present in over 6000 products. The food industry says it helps you to lose weight, but why is obesity then becoming an ever increasing problem? It can be found in products with any of the following labels: Light, Diet, Sugarfree, Zero, Pepsi Max, Low-Calorie, No Sugar Added, NutraSweet, Equal, NatraTaste, Canderel, Spoonful, Equal-Measure, etc. Aspartame is a sweet chemical, causing many health problems such as Multiple Sclerosis, Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, ADHD, epilepsy, migraines, mood swings as well as cancer and psychological ailments. It breaks down into 3 components: 1. Methanol, which is the poisonous kind of alcohol. Methanol further breaks down into formaldehyde, an embalming fluid! 2. Phenylalanine, which decreases the amount serotonin in your brain, which causes mood swings, depressions and an increase(!) in appetite. 3. Aspartic acid, a neurological toxin like MSG. To summarize, aspartame is not at all a health food! In fact there are 92 symptoms (!) recorded by the US Department of Health following complaints by aspartame users. In fact over 80% of all complaints filed with FDA are aspartame related! If you use any products that say Diet, Light, Zero, sugar-free, no sugar added, low calorie etc, take 10 minutes and watch this excellent investigative report by FOX 5 News (Washington DC). Don't believe the lies of the food industry any longer. Contrary to what the 'health experts' say, this stuff is NOT safe ...

What happens if you dont brush your teeth for 4+ years?

Posted on October 4, 2010

I went to the dentist the other day and he said theres a bit of plaque ill just clean that off and he did....
anyway, i didn't tell him i havn't brushed/flossed/mouthwashed in 4-5 years or so... so what could happen to my teeth due to me not brushing. Oh and my breath never smells bad and my teeth are perfectly white and look normal. My girlfriend didn't notice til i told her and she doesnt particularly care because not brushing hasn't made my teeth yuck or my breath bad. So yeah what could happen to me due to me not brushing
could my diet affect my teeths health....the main foods i eat are lettuce,fish,pepsi max,cucumber and the rest is totally random
but they are the main things

Would brushing my teeth right after drinking a dark-colored drink keep it from staining my teeth?

Posted on September 22, 2010

I just got my teeth whitened and I'm a little paranoid about what I drink now. I love sweet tea & Diet Pepsi, but I've been trying not to drink so much of it because I know it's bad for my teeth. I still drink both of them occasionally though, so my question is if I brush my teeth like immediately after I drink it, will that keep it from staining my teeth or is it gonna stain no matter what?
