Aspartame - Artificial Sweetner

PC: Parkland Natural Health

Aspartame has been discussed earlier on our platform to be 200 times sweeter than sugar. Sadly, majority consume this because it can be found in most process edibles like chewing gums, diet drinks, soda drinks, ketchup, children medicines and vitamins. 

Some may consume this unhealthy sweetner unknowingly if the product is labelled as SUGAR FREE. 

It should send a message when sweetness can be tasted from this product after the initial information.

Aspartame is also known as E951 and its last chemical product during digestion is formaldehyde (a highly toxic, inflammable gas at room temperature). 

There are numerous researches that point to the health implications of aspartame. These are:

1. Increases the risk of cancer

2. Associated with weight gain

3. Has impact on mental health like increase anxiety and problems with concentration during learning.

4. Increases the risk of brain tumor.

5. Affects neurogical health especially for people who take soda drinks.

6. Increases the risk of autism

7. Increases the risk of obesity

8. Higher risk to metabolic disease like diabetes.

9. Affects pregnancy (causes preterm birth) and baby's birth weight- overweight baby

10. Reproductive health damage

The list goes on. With just the aforementioned health implications, the one who cares so much about their health will take the right action.

Why I make more emphasis on healthy eating for my client because it takes the largest percentage in achieving a healthy lifestyle.
