Sucralose, marketed as Splenda, triggers production of a DNA-toxic chemical. A North Carolina State University study not only points out that Splenda can trigger the generation of the toxic sucralose-6-acetate after ingestion but also finds small quantities of the toxin already present as impurities in sucralose-containing products on your shelf. <br /> <br />The amount of this toxin present in commercial Splenda and produced by drinking a sucralose-sweetened drink exceeds safe levels. This agent triggers genetic changes in isolated test cells with increased oxidative stress, inflammation, and carcinogenesis. Sucralose-6-acetate also induces pathologic changes in your cut linings leading to so-called leaky gut syndrome. Then too this genetic toxin is passed via breast milk to babies and hangs around in the body for weeks.<br /> <br /> When choosing a no-cal sugar, you should avoid Splenda. Remember that it is often an ingredient in diet and no-cal ice cream, fruit products, drinks, and candy.<br /> <br />https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/10937404.2023.2213903<br /> <br /> #sucralose #splenda #genotoxin #leakygut #carcinogen<br />
