See book keywords and concepts | | This council has concluded that "until there is firm evidence of its [saccharin's] carcinogenicity in humans, saccharin should continue to be available as a food additive." However, if saccharin poses no benefit to health, as studies have shown, and there is a cloud of doubt that hangs over its safety, why should it be used?
Aspartame is composed of aspartic acid, phenylalanine, and methanol. Aspartame was approved for food use by the FDA in 1981, despite the final recommendation of the FDA Advisory Panel on aspartame that no approval be granted until safety issues could be resolved. |

See book keywords and concepts |  I started using saccharin from the pretty, pink Sweet'N Low® packets years ago when I, like many people, believed that it could help me manage my weight. saccharin is said to be 100 times sweeter than sugar and one packet sufficed in a cup of coffee. After reading stories about cancer in rats I was soon turned off by the product.
Market competition brought us another chemical, aspartame, with more pretty packets to choose from with Equal® and NutraSweet®. It wasn't long before stories about tumors related to aspartame started popping up. |
David Steinman
See book keywords and concepts |  How many of us are really saccharin? But isn't saccharin a fake sweetener? Maybe our real sweetness also comes with a little toxicity. We have toxic habits, toxic relationships, toxic foods, and toxic cosmetics. We're all toxic. We're just trying to minimize our toxicity, which I suspect is a good thing.
But what about what we can do to initiate change? How can we become catalysts instead of junking up the gears?
One of the best ways to start being less toxic is using less energy to do things, both in your personal actions and activities and around the home. |

See book keywords and concepts | | Saccharin is a known cancer-causing compound in rats. And while these effects have not been noted in humans, it must be pointed out that saccharin has been shown to cause cancer in rats only if it is administered over two generations. Therefore, it might be that future generations may pay for the current consumption of saccharin. This effect on future generations may finally provide the firm evidence the American Medical Association's Council on Scientific Affairs requires. |

See book keywords and concepts | | How to Eliminate Toxins from Artificial Sweeteners
• Go through your pantry and refrigerator and throw out everything that has any of the following artificial sweeteners listed on the label: Aspartame, Acesulfame Potassium (K), saccharin, or Sucralose.
• Avoid any product claiming to be "low calorie," "diet," "sugar free," or "no added sugar". All of these likely contain artificial sweeteners.
• Replace diet drinks with pure, clean purified water. Water provides zero calories!
• Avoid the following brands: Equal®, Nutrasweet®, and Splenda®. |
Herbert Ross, DC with Keri Brenner, L.Ac.
See book keywords and concepts |  Synthetic sugars: aspartame, saccharin, and others.
Natural sweeteners: fruit juice, raw honey, organic maple syrup, molasses, barley malt syrup, dehydrated organic sugarcane juice. Avoid even these if you're diabetic or sugar intolerant.
Refined flours: white, bleached, unbleached, and enriched flour and products containing these flours.
Organic whole grains: heirloom varieties, which aren't genetically altered, are best—such as Kamut, quinoa, amaranth, and spelt. People with gluten intolerance or celiac disease may tolerate these better. |

See book keywords and concepts | | Saccharin, aspartame and sucralose, the big three chemical sweeteners are just that, chemicals. And if they are safe for you, why would obstetricians warn pregnant and lactating women to avoid using them?
We have been conditioned to believe that sugar is bad for us. Actually in moderation, raw, unprocessed sugar is one of the most natural things you can eat. When you ingest a chemical into your body you have no way of knowing the short or long-term health consequences. It is an unnecessary gamble with your health that most people don't take seriously. | | Saccharin is said to be 100 times sweeter than sugar and one packet sufficed in a cup of coffee.

Market competition brought us another chemical, aspartame, with more pretty packets to choose from with Equal® and NutraSweet®. It wasn't long before stories about tumors related to aspartame started popping up. Jokes abounded about which sweetener you used — the one that causes cancer or tumors? |

See book keywords and concepts |  Animal feeds contain highly concentrated saccharin to stimulate the animal's appetite so that they eat more frequently and grow fat faster. The same mechanism applies to the human body, including children.
Children eating diet foods in lieu of the full-calorie versions may lead to overeating and obesity when they grow up, according to a 2007 report from the University of Alberta, Canada. | | Since not every person uses saccharin or eats foods that contain it, many people must therefore be consuming as much as 20 mg/kg/day or more. Through repeated intake of the sweeteners, many children and adults "expect" that a variety of foods and drinks taste very sweet, a characteristic most of them never have in their natural form. The masking of the natural taste of these products has consequences—there is a price to be paid for falling into the "sweet" trap.

See book keywords and concepts | | Yet it is more confusing to the consumer not to know whether a food product contains aspartame or saccharin than to know it.
A survey conducted by BBC2's Money Program revealed that up to 40 percent of the public do not expect to find artificial sweeteners in their fruit juices and drinks, not to mention in their foods. But there is hardly any drink on the market that does not contain an artificial sweetener, even if the drink is labeled "sugar free." The most popular brands give the impression that they are totally natural whereas in truth they contain synthetically derived sweeteners. |

Toothpaste can contain a number of harmful ingredients, such as ammonia, benzyl alcohol/sodium benzoate, ethanol, artificial colors and flavors, flouride, formaldehyde, mineral oil, plastic (PVP), and saccharin. Formaldehyde, mineral oil, PVP, and saccharin are all classified as carcinogens or suspected carcinogens, as is flouride, which has been banned in many European countries and is the subject of concern with regard to thyroid problems. |

Q If you take an anticoagulant (blood thinner) such as warfarin (Coumadin) or heparin, or even aspirin, limit your intake of foods high in vitamin K. Eating foods containing vitamin K increases the blood's tendency to clot, so they should be eaten only in small quantities. Foods that are rich in vitamin K include alfalfa, broccoli, cauliflower, egg yolks, liver, spinach, and all dark green vegetables. |
Ray D. Strand
See book keywords and concepts |  Radiation, charcoal steaks, too much fat in our diet, saccharin, and the many other chemicals found in herbicides and pesticides are what medical literature refers to as carcinogens, or those things that increase our risk of developing cancer.
Since the first report that chimney sweeps had an increased risk of scrotal cancer because of their exposure to soot,3 we have become more and more afraid of our environment, and rightfully so. As I mentioned earlier, our bodies face exposure to far more chemicals than any previous generation's did. |

See book keywords and concepts | | Considered non-toxic and safe by the British government, both saccharin and aspartame have found their way into the food chain. Both sweeteners are not only found in beverages but also in children's jellies, lollies and numerous other types of candies, puddings, as well as beans, and even tinned pasta. Aspartame, which is sold under the names NutraSweet®, Hermesetas, Gold Choice, and Canderel, has been included in some 14,000 foods in America and hundreds of products in Great Britain and other European countries. |

Mike Adams
See book keywords and concepts |  At the time of the FDA's announcement, five million pounds of saccharin were being consumed per year, 74 percent of it in diet soda, 14 percent in dietetic food, and 12 percent as a tabletop replacement for sugar. There was an immediate outcry, led vociferously by the Calorie Control Council. The FDA, urged by Congress, then delayed the ban. The moratorium on prohibiting the use of saccharin has been extended indefinitely.
- Ruth Winter, M.S. | | Thus far no human data has emerged (just as in the case of saccharin) to indict the sweetener as carcinogenic. Like saccharin, it's noncaloric and stable in liquids and in cooking. Is it safe to use? In small amounts infrequently, probably so. But once again, our advice to Protein Power LifePlan Dilettantes and Hedonists who might choose to use acesulfame K is to use it sparingly!
- Michael Eades, M.D., and Mary Dan Eades, M.D., The Protein Power Lifeplan
As it turns out, the real test of acesulfame's safety is being conducted right now — on the entire population. |

Available for nearly a century, saccharin is truly an artificial sweetener—it comes from petroleum. About 300 times sweeter than sugar, it cannot be digested and therefore has no calories. Although the FDA proposed and nearly enacted a ban on saccharin after studies suggested a link between it and bladder tumors in rats, it was saved by public demand, to be left on the market. |

See book keywords and concepts | | In the United States, the following five sugar substitutes are approved for consumer use: saccharin, neotame, acesulfame potassium, aspartame, and sucralose. We will focus on sucralose and aspartame as two of the most widespread and dangerous artificial sweeteners.
Sucralose, a fairly new artificial sweetener, can already be found in a wide variety of products including beverages and baking goods. Surprisingly, some nutritionally oriented companies manufacture products containing sucralose and health stores actually carry them, but is sucralose proven safe? |
Mike Adams, the Health Ranger

"More than a dozen animal tests over the last thirty years have demonstrated the carcinogenic effects of saccharin in the bladder and other sites, particularly female reproductive organs, and in some instances at doses as low as the equivalent of one to two bottles of diet pop daily. |
