FDA Should Reconsider Aspartame Cancer Risk, Say Experts
A new long-term animal test from an Italian cancer institute raises serious safety questions about the artificial sweetener aspartame, which is marketed generically as well as under the NutraSweet and Equal brand names.
A dozen toxicology and epidemiology experts and the nonprofit Center for Science in the Public Interest are calling on the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to immediately review the study, which found increases in lymphomas, leukemias, and breast cancers in rats.
If FDA concludes that aspartame does cause cancer in animals, the agency is required by law to revoke its approval for the controversial sweetener, which is used in Diet Pepsi, Diet Coke, tabletop packets, and countless other foods. Read the entire release here.

Almonds Aid Weight Loss and Lower LDL Cholesterol
Nuts contain lots of fat, and many people still operate under the idea that fat makes you fat, so nuts are often sunned. However, review of the data from the Nurses' Health Study shows that frequent nut eaters are thinner on average than those who almost never consume nuts.
One reason nuts help with weight loss is their nutrient density. A body that is well nourished no longer craves food. The traditional American diet is so depleted of the nutrients needed by the body that the body continues to send hunger signals. In response to these signals, more nutrient deficient food is eaten and more hunger signals are sent. It is a vicious circle that leads to steady weight gain as the years go by. Eating nutrient rich almonds and other nuts breaks this vicious circle allowing for the feelings of fullness and satiety to set in.
In a study published in the International Journal of Obesity and Related Metabolic Disorders, researchers found that adding almonds to a low calorie diet can help overweight individuals drop pounds more effectively than a low calorie diet high in complex carbohydrates. Of 65 overweight participants, those that ate the almond enriched low calorie diet consumed 39% of their calories in the form of fat. Participants that ate the low calorie diet high in complex carbohydrates consumed only 18% of their calories from fat. Both diets supplied the same number of calories and equivalent amounts of protein.

Reading Food Labels
There it is a typical food label. How can we see if we can eat it?
Look at the Carbohydrate part it says 23 gr, this is not a problem. What you have to look is in the sugar part, in this case it says 1 gr. It means is very low sugar food, usually i choose foods with 5 gr or lower. Normally i eat with 1 or 2 gr like almonds.
So the important part is the sugar in the carbohydrates, not the carbohydrates themselves.
Then if you have a food with very high calories i try not to eat much of it. In this case you have 130 , its not much.
Low GI foods
The Glycemic index (also glycaemic index) or GI is a measure of the effects of carbohydrates on blood glucose levels. Carbohydrates that break down rapidly during digestion releasing glucose rapidly into the bloodstream have a high GI; carbohydrates that break down slowly, releasing glucose gradually into the bloodstream, have a low GI. For most people, foods with a low GI have significant health benefits.

This means if you eat low GI foods your cravings wont knock at your door. I try to eat Low and Medium like whole rice and spaghetti.
In the Buxi diet foods with High GI are not allowed. Remember only to eat food above 69 level of GI, but mostly above 55
See a small list of the various levels( the red ones are high GI, orange Medium, Green Low):
* Yoghurt without sucrose (27)
* Fructose (32)

where is glutamate (msg) hidden ?
There are a lot of foods that can contain the ingredient glutamate on labels, but sometimes its hard to identified them because that can have different names ( because of the percentage of the amount)
I found one article in a website where you can read the full name list, see it here. I just put here some of them:
I found one article in a website where you can read the full name list, see it here. I just put here some of them:
| Glutamate | Glutamic acid | Gelatin |
| Monosodium glutamate | Calcium caseinate | Textured protein |
| Monopotassium glutamate | Sodium caseinate | Yeast nutrient |
| Yeast extract | Yeast food | Autolyzed yeast |
| Hydrolyzed protein (any protein that is hydrolyzed) | Hydrolyzed corn gluten | Natrium glutamate (natrium is Latin/German for sodium) |
I cant stop eatting! How do i start?
Its normal if you are eating now cans of coke, pizzas and burgers and you cant stop eating. That's the sugar,glutamate and some times aspartame that makes you eat almost every hour of the day. Don't worry, i used to eat a pizza at breakfast and i am now with no cravings. That is possible!
Ok, there are two ways to start this diet:
Ok, there are two ways to start this diet:
- Imagine you want to start a diet in the next Monday. you will eat in the weekend all the candies and sugary food you most like until you cant stand to look at them no more. Be aware that diabetics cant do this "tactic". In Monday, you will be so full of candies that you dont even are going to miss them. So you start the diet with no pain, and your body in a few days will be clean from sugar and the other "addictive" ingredients . The cravings just go away. If you fell a bit cravings just eat almonds.
- If the first way doesn't work, you can take some chromium pills, i don't wont to sell nothing so i wont tell any specific brand. Just be careful not to buy any that has many ingredients with the chromium. you take it for about 2 weeks and your cravings just calm down and you start the diet quietly.
Good Luck!

Study Links MSG To Obesity In Humans
Cheesy-flavored tortilla chips and frozen pizzas, these foods and thousands of others have one ingredient that helps make them taste so good, MSG, or monosodium glutamate.
"It's a pretty powerful flavor enhancer," says nutritionist, Melanie Pearsall. "You're eating a lot of MSG and you probably don't even realize it. It's just a baseline across a lot of foods."
Some people already avoid MSG, thinking it can cause headaches, but a new study suggests it could be contributing to more serious problem: America's expanding waistline.
Researchers at the University of North Carolina followed people in rural China, they all ate the same healthy foods, some used MSG, and others did not.
"We analyzed the data and found that those who used MSG are more likely to be overweight than non-users," says Dr. Ka He, of the University of North Carolina.

Buxi diet
Yes, that's it! I just invented a diet that really works! I have lost about 22 lbs in less then 3 months without felling cravings.
The problems of diets are two, the food sucks like broccoli( i really ate) and they make us have cravings for foods like pizza and burgers.
I Found that there are some ingredients that make you increase your appetite for bad food and dislike good food.
If you don't eat them, you just do your diet for months without eating any junk food or candies and you don't even remember they exist. Believe me. You just have to quit those 3 ingredients and your cravings disappear. Maybe it will cost you in the first 2 days but then you are free and your diet just goes nice.
the 3 ingredients are : Sugar, glutamate and aspartame. Get rid of them and you get thin!
My normal food intake is:
Breakfast : natural yogurt with almonds,whole rice cookie and avocado
Lunch and dinner: grilled meat or fish with 80 grams of whole rice or whole pasta ( cooked only with water and salt)
Between meals and at night you can eat almonds, tea without any sugar or aspartame , whole rice cookies or any food with low GI.
You can see i don't eat any processed food, just simple ones.
Good luck
