Diet Coke is dangerous and it’ll make you fat!

Do you drink Diet Coke? or other diet drinks? consume Equal, Nutrasweet or Spoonful or chew gum even? They are all sweetened with Aspartame. Heard of it? If you’re eating or drinking it then you probably haven’t. If you have and know the problems and still put the stuff in your body then I’m sorry, but you’re an idiot!
It amazes me that most people still haven’t heard of Aspartame and the damage that it does. Do a search online – the only ones with good things to say are either paid for by the company that makes it (Monsanto – also responsible for all our genetically modified frankenstein foods!) or by people with no common sense! So many people drink diet coke! Some people have heard that Aspartame is bad for them, but don’t care I guess – but that has to be because they don’t realise all the problems it causes – obviously!
Aspartame is implicated in Parkinsons Disease and can cause the same symptoms as Multiple Sclerosis, and can and has been diagnosed as such. It can also cause Lupus as well as many other varied health problems and symptoms.
Aspartame is a neurotoxin and can cause brain tumours, it is addictive and when heated can cause huge health problems such as those seen in the servicemen and women with Gulf War Syndrome, thought to be caused by diet coke sitting in the sun and being heated up by the sun before being consumed by personnel during the war. When aspartame is heated over 86 degrees F the wood alcohol converts to formaldehyde and then to formic acid. The methanol toxicity mimics MS.
Aspartame can cause behavoural changes by affecting brain function and chemistry. The following symptoms can be caused by aspartame disease: fibromyalgia symptoms, spasms, shooting pains, numbness in the legs, cramps, vertigo, dizziness, headaches, tinnitus, joint pain, depression, anxiety attacks, slurred speech, blurred vision, or memory loss.
Aspartame is deadly for diabetics as it causes blood sugar levels to become unstable and yet it is recommended by diabetes organisations and their nutritionists thanks to some very good marketing!
All of these things are great reasons to avoid this ingredient now found in over 5000 foods but people still consume it. The one fact that might cause people to stop and think is that fact that it will make you FATTER and will make it HARDER TO LOSE WEIGHT! That’s right. This product is touted as being a diet product, and yet it has the opposite effect. It causes havoc with blood sugar levels leading to increased weight gain and it causes an increase in appetite!
This explains the hoards of obese people drinking diet coke while eating their takeaways! Just take a look around you! It’s addictive and it makes you eat more.
Do your research – it’s disguised on foods under various numbers and names. Avoid it like the plague and you’ll be doing your body a favour. Please don’t give it to your kids!
Years ago I’d have said you’re better off with the ‘heavy’ coke, but not now. It’s sweetened with high fructose corn syrup instead of sugar and it’s almost as bad. No one ever died of a Coke deficiency – drink water!
