  • diet drinks - Aspartame=frightening

    So I enjoy a carbonated drink with my meals especially eating them on the road pre prepared in a tupperwhere box they can be a bit dry and a diet cola helps enormousely.

    However I heard on the radio that Aspartme was in most diet drinks and that its really bad for you and I found this on it YouTube - POISON? You bet your sweet aspartame!

    So today when I was buying food I got some different stuff with sucralose as the sweetner.

    What do you guys think about the stuff they say abour aspartme? sometimes I would get headaches or indigestion having toomany diet coke's but I just assumed that was the caffene

        just got to think in terms of hydrating your body. think about the benefits. try to get past the taste thing. people that cant get past that usually cant go to that next level.

            not only is that artificial sweeteners shitty, but so is the carbonation. we are designed to drink water. so drink it!

              Aspertame is in everything. there is extensive research going back decades proving that its safe. however, there are some other issues. they do know carbonated drinks rob your body of nutrients. also increases hunger and craving for sweets. with your goals I would avoid it for that reason alone. just go with water. if you absolutely cant do it try a lemon juice or slices in the water.

              I used to make protein bars with Splenda. Splenda is made from sugar that has been chemically engineered to pass through your body without being digested. That’s why it tastes like sugar but is calorie free. I Dont know if its any better for you at least its sugar
