I can't help but wonder just how long we could live, work, and function if we did not have all these assaults against us. Is it, in fact, possible, that without all this soft kill weapons, that we could live like our ancestors? Would it be possible to live to 300 years, or even 600 years? Remember, these people back then were fully functional for those years additionally, that they lived.
When you seriously consider the ramifications of diet and chemicals, along with other soft kill mechanisms, it boggles the mind just how vibrant a society we could have had with all the geniuses that graced our planet and died early when they did not have to. It also makes me wonder how many geniuses who could have been late developers that we missed out on, because of this attack against our society and the peoples of the globe?
Well, once we get past all this, we may well find out. Remember, all ancient writings say that after this time, we will have a thousand years of peace, prosperity and abundance. So, yes, I think we will find out.
New Research Shows DIET Soft Drinks Cause STrokes, Heart Attacks, and Vascular Death

Besides the fact that diet soda causes
dehydration, weight gain, mineral depletion, diabetes and caffeine
addiction, new research shows they're also responsible for an
increased risk of vascular events such as,
Soft drinks account
for more than a quarter of all drinks consumed in the United States.
That works out to at
least one 12-ounce can per day for every man, woman and child.
The
new study was conducted by,
Hannah Gardener and her colleagues from the,
The research appears online in the
Journal of General Internal Medicine, published by Springer.
In the current climate of escalating obesity rates, artificially sweetened soft drinks are marketed as healthier alternatives to sugar-sweetened beverages, due to their lack of calories.

However, past research has shown very
serious long-term health consequences due to highly toxic additives
and artificial sweeteners such as,
Gardener and team examined the
relationship between both diet and regular soft drink consumption
and risk of stroke, myocardial infarction (or heart attack), and
vascular death.
Data were analyzed from 2,564
participants in the NIH-funded Northern Manhattan Study, which was
designed to determine stroke incidence, risk factors and prognosis
in a multi-ethnic urban population.
The researchers looked at how often
individuals drank soft drinks - diet and regular - and the number
of vascular events that occurred over a ten-year period.
They found that those who drank diet soft drinks daily were 43 percent more likely to have suffered a vascular event than those who drank none, after taking into account pre-existing vascular conditions such as metabolic syndrome, diabetes and high blood pressure.
Gardener concludes:

Gardener concludes:
"Our results suggest a potential association between daily diet soft drink consumption and vascular outcomes. However, the mechanisms by which soft drinks may affect vascular events are unclear.
There is a need for further research before any conclusions can be drawn regarding the potential health consequences of diet soft drink consumption."
Scientists at Boston University’s medical school say people who drink more than one regular or diet soda each day develop the same risks for heart disease.
Dr. Ramachandran Vasan, the lead
researcher, says he found that among 9,000 middle-aged people, those
who drank more than one soda per day had a 48 percent higher risk of
metabolic syndrome.
"Metabolic syndrome" is the term that refers to a group of symptoms that increase the risk for heart disease, such as a large waistline, and high blood pressure, cholesterol and triglycerides. The presence of three or more of the factors increases your risk of developing diabetes and cardiovascular disease, health experts say.
And those people in Vasan's study who showed no signs of metabolic syndrome and quaffed more than one soda a day were 44 percent more likely to develop the cluster of conditions four years later, according to the article in the journal published by the American Heart Association.
What’s more, people who drank more than one soft drink a day were between 25 and 31 percent more likely to become extremely overweight, have larger waists, and develop higher levels of triglycerides and lower levels of "good" cholesterol than folks who drank only one daily soda, according to the findings.
Low-calorie diet soft drinking clearly do not prevent weight gain or obesity.

Epidemiologists from the School of
Medicine at The University of Texas Health Science Center San
Antonio reported data showing that diet soft drink consumption is
associated with increased waist circumference in humans, and a
second study that found aspartame raised fasting glucose (blood
sugar).
“Data from this and other prospective studies suggest that the promotion of diet sodas and artificial sweeteners as healthy alternatives may be ill-advised,” said Helen P. Hazuda, Ph.D., professor and chief of the Division of Clinical Epidemiology in the School of Medicine.
“They may be free of calories but not of consequences.”

I have never in my life known anyone that started drinking diet soft drinks and actually lost weight. More than anything it made them gain additional weight.
ReplyDeletePeople don't think about what they are putting in their bodies, and all the lobbying by the big corporations means they can legally hide it. Soft drinks are the #1 cause for obesity and type 2 diabetes! It is not a joke, just look at all the chemicals laced in that crap. I can't believe people are so willingly stupid and would put it in their body without thinking. "But it tastes good!" when I stopped drinking sodas about 2 years ago, I noticed a big change in my health. I no longer had migraines anymore. I suffered from migraines ever since I was 8 years old. I switched to drinking natural juice, green tea, and milk, and I no longer have migraines and most of all the sodas made me feel weak when I drank them. I no longer have these bizarre random weak spells.
Part of the problem however is the people buying this, the poor can't help it. If you go to the super market you'll see the prices for healthy drinks is sky high, while you can just buy one case of cokes and get 24 for free, or the fountain drink sodas which are 48 oz for just 79 cents. It's ridiculous.
I tried to drink a soda back in January to see how my taste buds would treat it after not drinking any for nearly 2 years, and it was so nasty, I spit it out. When you start drinking healthier things, and do this for so long, when you try the sodas again you won't be saying "but it tastes good" you'll be spitting it out and tasting it for the chemicals it really is!
