“Sweet Misery: A Poisoned World” reveals one of the most pervasive, insidious forms of corporate negligence since tobacco. It is an expose on one of the most deadly chemicals you could find in your food.

Thanks for posting. I don’t have time to watch the video now, but I will later. I have long known about the problems with artificial sweeteners (not just aspartame). Unfortunately, most people don’t know b/c they are in so many foods, and if they are in so many foods, they must be safe, right? And it’s more healthy than eating sugar, right? I make it a point to scan labels of foods I buy to make sure I am not buying anything with artificial sweeteners or MSG, as both of these can damage the brain and body.

I hope everyone watches or listens to the video.

I too was warned about artificial sweeteners (diet pop etc.) you will find that the one ingredient is found in antifreeze, gasoline, varnish, and lacquers, and formaldehyde. I was told that if the pop was overheated during storage that the formaldehyde characteristics would be triggered. Whether that is totally accurate or not I am not sure, but just the mention of it was enough to keep me away from artificial sweeteners.

I finally got around to watching the video. It has a lot of good information.
