I just can’t buy my sons poisonous cereal any more

Your lady friend made the big mistake of looking at the ingredients list of her son’s favorite cereals today and afterwards COULD NOT bring myself to purchase a single box. Corn syrup is one of the first/main ingredients listed and that stuff is DEATH. But oh boy, my sons love cereal.

I walked down the aisle muttering to myself about how bad corn syrup is for people, and then spotted some of that healthy-looking stuff right at the end of the aisle, marked half price! I checked the labels. Yep! Real sweeteners like honey, molasses, sugar and no corn syrup, so I bought 8 boxes. This stuff is going to be here a long time if my boys don’t like it.

High Fructose Corn Syrup Does Weird Stuff to Your Body
While the commercials claim that it’s fine in moderation, the truth is that the whole problem with high fructose corn syrup in the first place, is that moderation is seemingly impossible. The syrup interferes with the body’s metabolism so that a person can’t stop eating. It’s truly hard to control cravings because high fructose corn syrup slows down the secretion of leptin in the body. Leptin is a crucial hormone in the body that tells you that you’re full and to stop eating. That’s why it’s so closely associated with obesity in this country. It’s like an addictive drug.

The Digestion of High Fructose Corn Syrup Is Hard On the Body
Acidic “foods”, which are void of nutrition, wreak havoc on the body. To compensate, the body will pull calcium and other minerals from our bones, teeth, and organs to keep our blood slightly alkaline. Enzymes must be produced to metabolize high fructose corn syrup and micro-nutrients must be utilized. High fructose corn syrup causes mineral imbalances and deficiencies, which can cause a host of other diseases and health problems.
