[QUOTE="catherinecherub, post: 710568"] The video comes from the site that said that eggs can cause diabetes and we are all doomed if we eat them, that the OP posted. For those with diabetes, eggs may then hasten our death. Eating one egg or more a day [URL='http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18400720']appears[/URL] to shorten anyone’s lifespan, but may be even worse for those with diabetes, potentially doubling all-cause mortality, meaning egg-eating diabetics seem to live particularly short lives. [url]http://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/threads/new-egg-research-for-diabetes-not-good-news.68112/[/url] [USER=85197]@zand[/USER] ,I have a dyslexic son and have never drank diet drinks. This article explains that you need a rare genetic component. Amid the continuing disquiet, the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) conducted a [URL='http://www.efsa.europa.eu/en/efsajournal/doc/3496.pdf']comprehensive review of the evidence in 2013[/URL]and concluded that aspartame was safe for human consumption, including pregnant women and children. In digestion, aspartame is quickly and completely broken down in to by-products – including phenylalanine, aspartic acid and methanol – which then enter our system through normal routes. Hardly any aspartame enters the bloodstream. However, the panel said the ADI did not apply to people with [URL='http://www.nhs.uk/conditions/phenylketonuria/pages/introduction.aspx']phenylketonuria (PKU)[/URL] – a rare genetic disorder where the body cannot break down phenylalanine. People who have this condition need to closely monitor their phenylalanine intake. The EFSA report stated that: "PKU mothers with poorly controlled phenylalanine intake in their diet during pregnancy may give birth to babies with congenital heart diseases, microcephalus and impaired neurological function."
