What does the FDA have in store for our "Children"?

Today's Health Awareness Tip 972: What does the FDA have in store for our "children"?

Good morning my friends . . .

So, to continue with last weeks topic . . . on my review of this "new" carbonated juice drink" called Plezi Fizz . . . on the market today . . .

It's a big "NOOOOOOOO" for me!!!

Now . . . I do agree with the "creator" of this drink that it is "better" than drinking soda . . .

BUT . . .

"Concentrating" fruit or vegetables . . . removes some of the "nutritional" value of that item . . .

A good example would be . . . "concentrating" oranges juice . . .

This process . . . removes the "fiber", skin, pulp and water from the orange . . . which in turn . . . "removes" the NUTRITIONAL VALVE" . . . and leaves you with JUST the "simple sugars" of that orange.

And as we now know . . . consuming "too many" SIMPLE SUGARS . . . can cause "chronic inflammation" in the body.

Which in turn . . . can cause "insulin resistance" and low-grade chronic inflammation . . .

Setting our children up for diabetes, obesity and many other health issues down the road.

But, the worst part to me is the "Stevia" in it . . .

In 2019 . . . a study was reported on the possible link between "nonnutritive sweetener" including "stevia" . . . and the disruption of "good" bacteria in our large intestine.

Which can "induce" glucose intolerance and metabolic disorders.

And worse part yet . . . is that the "steviol glycosides" from Stevia . . . "can and "will" . . . affect our HORMONES . . .

Okay . . . so do the math PEOPLE!!!

This "new" drink . . . is "targeting" our "pre-teens" and "teenagers" . . . that are "already" going through "PUBERTY" and having "HORMONAL CHANGES" . . .

Now . . . add to that . . . a "large" amount of "SIMPLE SUGAR" . . . that remember . . . 'FEEDS" . . . the "bad" bacteria . . . and . . . "fungus" (Candidiasis) . . . already in the body to "GROW" fast and out of control . . . causing allergies, illness, obesity and disease.

SO, LISTEN UP PEOPLE . . .

The "steviol" in Stevia . . . that our "children" will be consuming . . . can "ALTER" . . . these hormones . . .

It can . . . "INCREASE" Progesterone production human "sperm cells" by up to 5X . . . and is linked to "WEIGHT GAIN" and "DEPRESSION"

It can also . . . "INCREASE" Cortisol levels . . . which is the "STRESS" and "BELLY FAT PRODUCER"

And the "Cleveland Clinic states . . .

"In short spurts . . . "cortisol" can "boost" immunity by limiting inflammation . . . However, if the body "consistently" has high levels of cortisol . . . the body can get used to having "too much" cortisol in the blood . . . which can lead to "inflammation" and a "weakened immune system".

So, tomorrow . . . let's dig a little deep . . . because this is our "children" we're talking about . . . the youth of our "GREAT NATION"!!!
