Artificial Sweeteners
Artificial sweeteners are very popular for many reasons. As a general rule, they contain almost no calories, are dozens of times sweeter than sugar, and are relatively inexpensive. Artificial sweeteners are especially popular with folks seeking to lose weight or maintain their weight.
Artificial sweeteners can be 30 times sweeter than refined sugar (aka "sucrose"). In the United States, five of these artificial sweeteners are approved for use: saccharin, acesulfame-K, sucralose, aspartame, and neotame. Aspartame is the most popular, used in both NutraSweet and Equal. As use of artificial sweeteners increases, so does the controversy over their side effects, which are as diverse and serious as migraine headaches and heart problems. Artificial Sweeteners: the Unnatural Choice? Artificial sweeteners use chemicals to create a sweet taste. However, there are many dangers associated with these chemicals; methanol, found in aspartame, is believed to cause a number of physical ills. To avoid possible complications, many doctors recommend natural alternatives, such as Xylitol. Used as the primary ingredient in our ElimiTaste chewing gum, Xylitol is a substance found in nature that creates no adverse side effects in the body. As a matter of fact, Xylitol is touted as a cavity-fighting substance that doesn't simply mask mouth odors, but actually eliminates the bacteria that cause them. We offer power-packed flavors like SmokeScreen Insane MaxxMint and ZAPP! Intense ElectraMint. Both products are long-lasting and effective enough to sweeten even the worst breath.
