There's a reckoning coming with social media mark my words. I don't know when or how but it's going to reach a tipping point when the destruction is enough.
It is destroying families and communities not government, or science, or policies. People like Elon and Zuckerberg are sowing the seeds that are actively destroying the fabric of society.
It's already happened, we elected Donald fucking Trump to be president TWICE
Yeah. This guy seems to think "the reckoning" will be some sort of revolution, where in the real world we're steamrolling into fascist dystopia.
Are you working with RFK Jr?
Well @[email protected] is actually Donald Trump, believe it or not.
Smart talking about yourself in the 3rd person to hide who you are.
Truly a masterful example of the weave, Mr. President
I mean, people do tend to eat more sugar than they probably should, but the main artificial sweetener that I see used in candies is xylitol, which is, unfortunately, also a laxative. Eat more than a few xylitol-sweetened candies at one sitting, and one's in for diarrhea.
I assume that we don't have an artificial sweetener in 2024 that both avoids having a laxative effect and has the appropriate properties to subsititute for sugar in candies. I'd be delighted if someone would manage to develop one, though.
The laxative properties disappear after a while (a few weeks). Our body accommodates for it so that 200g per day are no big problem anymore.
Xylitol also have interesting properties for preventing tooth decay. Not the worst sugar alternative imo
IIRC it doesn't do anything prevent tooth decay, it just doesn't cause it, unlike sugar and many other sugar substitutes.
It stimulates the salivary glands, and saliva does prevent tooth decay.
A quick google search, xylitol and tooth decay, should convince you otherwise. Plenty of scientific papers to dive in
Yes we do, they just arent as cheap.
