There is approximately 10 teaspoons of sugar in one can of soda, drinking one can every day for 365 days can add 15 pounds (6.8 kg) to your weight in a year. Not counting any other foods or drinks that contain sugar or that is digested in the body as sugar. Interesting right??? 

Also you may want to reconsider if you drink or consume anything with Aspartame in it because it is made up of 3 chemicals:

• Aspartic Acid
• Phenylalanine
• Menthol

Aspartic Acid causes symptoms that we assume are normal for advanced aging; Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, dementia, brain lesions and neuro-endrocrine disorders. Guess what else, Korea is the largest manufacturer of this chemical Aspartic Acid!

Phenylalanine is an amino acid found in the brain but if you have this in excess from eating large amounts of Aspartame it can cause the serotonin (the hormones that contribute to feelings of well being) in the brain to decrease, leading to emotional disorders such as depression. In order for the body to function properly it has to remain balanced. Breaking bad habits are not easy but once they are done you will immediately see improvements in how you feel. 

The last one menthol is broken down in the body as formaldehyde, which is a deadly poisonous neurotoxin. Did you know that menthol is used as a chemical in Cigarettes also? In fact the FDA is considering banning or phasing out the menthol cigarettes that some experts say can be more enticing and possibly addicting than regular cigarettes. Natural Foodies, read labels carefully and know exactly what you are consuming. When you eat or drink you nourish your cells and bodily tissues in the process. ”Poison may not kill you over night but the effects are felt later”.  What are your thoughts on this?

….Stay BEAUTIFUL AND HEALTHY
