Guest guest Posted December 1, 2006 Report Share Posted December 1, 2006 hugo, moderation is such a necessity in life. actually, i know folks who figure i will go 2 a special altmed h.d.double toothpicks b/c of this, i like 2 keep stevia and splenda at home. stevia doesn't provide the bulk needed 4 some projects. mind you, i know some who in go thru a large bag of splenda in a month, and my bags last usually a few months. i teach folks this: moderation in all strong and concentrated flavors. that includes sweets. then i add a concept that completely surprises many people due to its newness: it is completely irrelevant whether or not flavors and foods have calorie- moderation's need remains the same! non caloric doesn't mean it's innocuous when u consume immense amounts! lynn [subincor] wrote: This sort of questions comes up really often, and I wonder that it does so. The general answer seems to be clear enough for me, at any rate: There is little, or perhaps nothing, in our world which is not damaging when there is too much of it it, or too little of it. Excess and deficiency. Too much of anything: air, water, light, heat, cold, sugar and so on, will have harmful effects, i.e. " possible cancer development " , " low sperm count " , " brain damage " , " cosmetic dehancement " and so on. There is not a substance I am aware of that does not follow this pattern. Of course this is not a fixed, quantitative issue, as science would love to have it be, but rather a qualitative and relational issue first, with specific quantities issuing from the qualitative relationships (which, again, exists first). Hope that is of some help, Hugo --- " J.
