Thanks for the information, a hard act to follow.

A doctor suggested I eat a bowl of oatmeal with Splinda every morning to reduce cholesterol and it is good for me. I dont have high cholerterol but he insisted and said 'they' have been using a Splenda like substance in hospitols for many years as a laxative and it was safe. Okay, I'll take it for the extra fiber and to keep 'regular'.

He was right about the laxative part, the dosage is self-regulating.

A long time ago I picked up a paperback book that was called The History of Sugar, I think.
What a suprise to find that refined Sugar was once viewed like a drug and could get your head cut off. Many times I have pictured a nation and world addicted to the white powder. I know I have addictive tendencys with sugar.

Picture a world without refined Sugar and you can see a world with the diet related diseaes we think of as common and inevitable. But like all addicts, except for my overweight and heart disease, it only happens to other people.
