Sugar Substitutes

I think that it is a fact that most people have a sweet tooth, not only Americans but all people of the world. Back in my childhood, my grandmother always brought with her a bag of dulce whenever she came to visit us. And I remembered too, going to bed with a piece of candy in my mouth. That was a big mistake. It says that an average person eats 20 teaspoons of sugar per day adding up all the sugar contents of the food one is eating everyday. The thought of getting diabetes scares so many people that many are turning to sugar substitutes.

Hubby was so scared, too, that he changed all his drinks with something that had only artificial sweeteners in it like splenda. He did not want other sweeteners because he believed that splenda was the best. But lately, he told me that he read a new piece of information on the web about this sugar substitute. Then he told me that nothing is safe even with what he believed to be the best one. The problem is he already had a stock of sugar free drinks in our garage. It becomes his problem how to get rid of them now.

So I went to the web and I myself could not believe what I read. What I read made my hair stand on ends thinking that I have been drinking a lot of those stuff for quite a period of time already. Besides, I used splenda in my cooking and a lot of food that need sugar. Should you wish to know more about it, just click here to get a first hand information.
