Splenda is sucralose And just a thought for everyone who goes on and on about this being poison and giving people cancer....diabetes or its complications will kill you much sooner than you will get cancer from this stuff....if you even do.

You're not gonna live forever no matter what you do. People on here go on and on about all the stuff in the food we eat that poisons us, but we still live longer than people ever have. People would live even longer if it weren't for being overweight. Being overweight and smoking (and too much booze or drugs) sends many more people to their graves early than all the fluoride, artificial sweeteners, pesticides, and anything else you can think of combined. Steve jobs would touch a soft drink with a 10 ft. pole and you see how much it helped him. All things in perspective. True dat! But I still avoid artificial sweeteners.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 1561325 United States 04/26/2013 01:11 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | You can thank Donald Rumsfeld and Ronald Reagan. Quoting: wisc_natureboy They are the reason we humans consume aspartame. Aspartame was ant poison. Searle Corp was scrambling to find a solution to the 'saccharin' problem. That being, floods of studies linking saccharin with cancer. Searle submitted aspartame to the FDA who soundly rejected it as a food additive, more than once. Searle CEO Rumsfeld had a buddy in Reagan. Reagan issued an Executive Order changing the way the FDA approves food additives. Rumsfeld's Searle Corp resubmits its ant poison once again to the FDA. This time the US-FDA approved it for human consumption.. I've been telling people this since the late 1980's. Aspartame is poison. :( OK, perhaps not Executive Order, rather by appointment. --- Independent analyses of these studies [by Searle, manufacturer of aspartame] ... proves conclusively that aspartame is actually a dangerous, neurotoxic, carcinogenic and highly-addictive drug. ... Rumsfeld was hired as Searle CEO on March 8, 1977 and immediately ... fired many of its high-level managers, replacing them with other politically-connected Washington, D.C., insiders. ... There was [however] no doubt, based upon objective analyses of evidence that had accumulated for over a decade, that aspartame was deathly poisonous to lab animals and caused a statistically significant number of them to develop tumors. ... Ronald Reagan was sworn in as president January 21, 1981. Rumsfeld, while still CEO at Searle, was part of Reagan's transition team. This team hand-picked Dr. Arthur Hull Hayes, Jr., to be the new FDA commissioner. ... Hayes, left his post at the FDA in November, 1983, amid accusations that he was accepting corporate gifts for political favors. Just before leaving office in scandal, Hayes approved the use of aspartame in beverages. ... Within weeks ... cans of diet sodas and other sweet drinks were on the market ... and [aspartame] is now in an estimated 7,000 to 9,000 commonly-consumed products in at least 100 countries. When Searle was absorbed by Monsanto in 1985, Rumsfeld reportedly received a $12 million bonus. ... Not surprisingly, the same adverse reactions seen in lab animals in the 60s and 70s are now being seen in the general population. ... Rumsfeld became the CEO of Searle to secure political approval for a product that science had proven to be a highly-addictive neurotoxic drug that causes chronic ill health, brain tumors and death.

It will not kill them, but they will go somewhere else. (concerning Aspertame: I know a personal friend that had "Aspertame Poisioning", and it nearly KILLED him!) This is dangerous stuff.

User ID: 19401718 United States 04/26/2013 01:46 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Pretty sure it killed my Grandmother too. Use stevia or honey for sweetening whenever possible. I use sugar in the raw, when i use , try to stay away from all of it I think the key here is read labels. One article in Wiki talks about the "other" additives that create the Stevia compound and if you read the label it ends up sounding like a chemistry book not a soft drink! [link to en.wikipedia.org] Best to consume only natural ORGANIC sugar and LOCAL raised honey in my humble opinion. As for Ant Control..make sure your dogs and cats don't get near artificial sweetners as they absorb though their paws and cats lick themselves constantly so anything they come in contact with can lead to problems.. and that leads to my next research project... why our Dogs are getting "toxic" syndrome and greater "cancer" levels than ever before? [link to www.holisticpetinfo.com] As for the ants.. try cornstarch, diatomateous earth or Borax.. much more inert but of course keep away from curious kids and pets if you can.. a few more ideas to try..

Quoting: HarleyQuinn Interesting read. I remember a few months back reading that they came to the conclusion aspartame in fact doesn't hurt you as previous thought.

In addition, leading health authorities, such as the Multiple Sclerosis Foundation, The National Multiple Sclerosis Society, The National Parkinson Foundation, Inc., the Alzheimer’s Association, and the Lupus Foundation of America, have reviewed the claims on the Internet and also concluded that they are false. Just something to read and ponder. I know a guy who is a chemist who has a brother who is also a chemist who worked on formulating aspartame.

I don't know why it made made as an ant killer, except that it might have been toxic to the environment. Anyway, for ant killing purposes, I've never been able to find aspartame for sale in bulk.

(OP) User ID: 38707111 United States 04/26/2013 03:00 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | hey guys....have a small, regular Spring ant problem in kitchen. thanks for the idea. I have the borax powder, too. Quoting: KarinZa easy way to solve which product to use....which color was the packet? :-) Which fake sweetener is in diet coke? Ant doom You can also try planting peonies if you're in the right zone (they're fine with 3-8, so few places in US should have big problems). Even if the ants makes the blooms not so nice, they love them and will colony closer to the plants than your house. They don't feed on the plants themselves, only the nectar, so the plants don't mind - just leave the ants be and they won't want to feed from your kitchen. They're crazy fast dividing perennials that last many, many years too. Even if they only solve half the problem (spring season before bloom time might require other short-term control solutions), it's still, literally, a beautiful idea :) Great suggestion, but I don't think we have peonies in Georgia. We have rednecks and pansies. Who is John Galt? |
