If You Drink DIET SODAS Then YOU Need to Read This.

Call it anti-intellectual if you want, but I don't think our "scientific process" is working for us in the realm of PREVENTING illness.

So immunizations (developed by science) doesn't prevent diseases? Do you think that hanging out with someone with chicken pox and just your "natural" immunity would give you piece of mind?

I'm not a fan of (most) immunizations, chicken pox vaccine being one of them. I'm sure I will be criticized for that as well.

I'm pretty sure that the big "G" is in cahoots with big Pharm and is sneaking mind control drugs into the vaccinations. How else do you explain our national propensity to eat too much? They're fattening us all up for something? Aliens? I think so.

Don't laugh. I'm pretty sure that there is incontrovertible proof that Aliens are also using gluten to fatten us up for harvesting. Just google it. It is all there.

starts with internet chain letter...ends with anti-vax insanity. Seems about right.

Don't forget about the anti-fluoridation brigade

Look.

Fruit flies do not care one iota about Aspartame or any of that.

Therefore Diet>Regular soda

I would kill to get rid of the flute fries.

Sugar doesn't cause diabetes or obesity...

Too many calories cause obesity. Sugar has calories. Thus too much sugar causes obesity. Aspartame has no calories. Ergo, replacing sugar with aspartame decreases obesity.

See how I did that?

righttttttt, because only sugar has calories.

Too many calories OVERALL cause obesity.

I never said they didn't. Too many effing chicken-fried steaks will also make you fat, LOL.

But since cutting out unnecessary calories is the whole point of most diets, replacing sugar with a calorie-free substitute is as good a place to start as any. Wait - since sugar crashes are the main cause of unwarranted hunger and the overeating that follows, cutting out sugar actually seems like the *best* place to start.

Anything to back that up? Or is this a "that's how my body reacts" to sugar thing?

I think you guys are reading her the wrong way. She's not being completely serious, but she is saying that substituting sugar-containing items for similar items that have artificial sweeteners is a good way to cut some calories from your diet. And, in fact, it is. Use splenda in coffee instead of sugar, drink Diet Coke instead of Coca-Cola, etc.

If George Washington wore wooden dentures, then dag nabbit then they're good enough for me. We don't need any of these new fangled sciency things being used for mind control.

I assure you sir, I take the eventual return of my alien overlords very seriously. That's why I'm losing weight; they're gonna eat the big ones first but the in shape ones might be found useful for someone beyond food.

Diet Coke has a Splenda version. I personally switched to it because the one with aspartame gave me headaches. So if any of you do want to cut down or eliminate aspartame from your life there are other options out there.

Hey, fluoride is natural. That makes it good. Always.

So do you think there's anything to the Zombie/Alien connection that Dr. Mercola discovered by reevaluating the data from the China Study?
