Saccharine no Longer on list of Carcinogenic Products

 

Today I learned that the Saccharine has finally been taken off the list of products that cause cancer.  It was put on the list in the 1980's.  Despite strong opposition and mounds of data that stated the opposite, it was listed along with tobacco  as a cancer causing agent.  For diabetics this was tragic.  

Despite this warning, many of us, knowing the falseness of this statement, have continued to use saccharine based products like Sweet'n Low, (The Pink Stuff).  

Then there came aspartame and Nutri-sweet, (The Blue Stuff), which has proven to be so much more of a health risk in terms of side effects like brain tumors, blindness, and all sorts of other  reported complications.

I am so relieved that the truth has finally come out and we can now settle down to using a product that will allow us to still have that sweet taste without the calories, and without the health risks.  Beverage companies, it is time to get back to the basics and provide us with a product that  uses saccharine. The new Diet Rite product is too sweet and has no caffeine.  It is like drinking colored sugar water.  It is tasteless. let's get back to what works.  Give us something that tastes good beside being good for us.

Just a note:  They added about 140 items to the list including second hand smoke.  I didn't see aspartame on that list though.
