SPLENDA IS

NOT SPLENDID!

In a simple word you would just as soon have DDT in your

food as Splenda,

because sucralose is a chlorocarbon. The chlorocarbons

have long been famous for

causing organ, genetic, and reproductive damage. It

should be no surprise,

therefore, that the testing of sucralose, even at less

than the level demanded by

FDA rules, reveals that it has been shown to cause up to

40%shrinkage of the

thymus: A gland that is the very foundation of our immune

system. It also

causes swelling of the liver and kidneys, and

CALCIFICATION of the kidney.

 

Lying and deceit on the artificial sweetener issue has

been the FDA's Modus

Operandi ever since Donald Rummsfeld broke everything

decent in the US

government to put Aspartame on the market as a

" contract on humanity " . It has no

commercial purpose other than a contract on humanity.

Either they have done but

little testing of sucralose, or they are so afraid of

what the public would think

of sucralose, and the government if the public but knew

what was going on,

that they will not tell us! BECAUSE: we have been told

nothing about the

extensive studies which would have to have been done if

very reasonable, and

scientifically sound FDA rules had been followed.

 

Such study results as have been made known, catches the

company in great big

whopper lies! When questioned about the Thymus shrinkage

which would

disqualify sucralose forever, by the FDA's own rules, the

company merely said. " Well

the rats wouldn't eat the food with sucralose in it, so

the thymus lost weight

from starvation. " The FDA allowed that explanation

even though it was an

admission that the rats hadn't ingested the required

amount of sucralose, but had

demonstrated immense damage anyway! In fact, if research

animals won't

voluntarily eat the required dose of experimental

substance it can be given by gastric

gavage, which is a common and well-known research method.

Moreover, the rats

so fed were only 7-20% underweight Vs the average for the

control group. Rats

who are severely starved to create a 30% weight loss,

only shrink their thymus

by an average of 7%. The net conclusion from all this is,

that both the thymus

shrinkage and the growth retardation caused by sucralose

were enough to in

each case disqualify sucralose from the marketplace.

 

All of these KNOWN findings only pointed out that the

testing was so flawed

that it could never be used as a basis for approval on

one hand, and that the

effects which were detected anyway were so severe that

sucralose should never

be allowed into the human body. It should be classified

right along with DDT,

and dioxin as illegal to even release into the

environment much less put into

your body!

 

The company blandly and heinously denied that sucralose

is a chlorocarbon.

They stated that it was merely a salt, like sodium

chloride! That whopper

wouldn't even get past a sophomore chemistry student.

Facts, and concern for human

welfare are obviously irrelevant in our Bush dominated

government, and the

Rummsfeld dominated media. What their incredulously lying

statements about what

sucralose is, did bring to mind though, is that it flies

in the face of what its

known breakdown product , 1, 6, dichloro, fructose, is:

Another highly toxic

chlorocarbon. They admittedly did not do toxicity studies

on it, as FDA rules

require, or perhaps the findings were so dangerous that

they felt it better to

confess to the " minor omission " , of not even

complying with the law and doing

the required studies! They further tried to side step the

toxicity issue by

saying " Sucralose is not even absorbed from the

digestive tract anyway, because

it is after all, a chlorocarbon. " : Another bold

faced lie. Chlorocarbons are

significantly absorbed from the digestive tract and

sucralose is no exception!

It is significantly absorbed from the GI tract. Of

course, at that point

their lies had compounded and contradicted themselves.

 

What you need to know about sucralose is that it is of a

class of compounds

which places it amongst some of the most dangerous

chemicals on earth. The

known studies, and science verify this fact. Lies and

dissimulations, which have

been totally, and inexcusably left unchecked by the FDA,

point to gross

governmental/corporate corruption, and massive cover up

and peril. They say " Oh, It's

just made from sugar, what could be more natural and

harmless. "
