Diet Coke to drop additive in DNA damage fear.
By Colin Fernandez

Diet Coke to drop additive in DNA damage fear. May be linked to hyperactivity and DNA damage.

Coca-Cola is phasing out a controversial additive that has been linked to damage to DNA and hyperactivity in children.

Sodium benzoate, also known as E211, is used to stop fizzy drinks going moldy.

Coca-Cola said it had begun withdrawing the additive from Diet Coke in January in response to consumer demand for more natural products.

(Editor's Note: Pepsi has been market testing their all-natural 'Throwback' Pepsi, "Made with real sugar," low sodium, all natural, with no High-Fructose Corn Syrup (aka Corn Sugar) or preservative (no benzoate of soda) for several months.

See Sugar is a four letter word. See Sugar: The Bitter Truth. See Why Sodium Benzoate is so scary.

Company representatives we contacted claim the product has been well received in targeted areas. Pepsi plans to make the switch-over to the 'Throwback' product as well as similar changes to the Sierra Mist drink in the Spring of 2011.)


Diet Coke is reportedly phasing out preservative.

By the end of the year no can or bottle will contain E211.

The company plans to remove it from its other products as soon as possible, but said that at present it had not found a satisfactory alternative to replace the additive in some soft drinks with a higher juice content, including Fanta, Dr Pepper, Sprite and Oasis. The chemical is not used in regular Coke.

While sodium benzoate occurs naturally in some fruits, it is used in greater strengths by the soft drinks industry.

But research by Peter Piper, a professor of molecular biology at Sheffield University, found that the additive could switch off parts of DNA, the genetic code in the cells of living creatures, that could be linked to cirrhosis of the liver and Parkinson's disease.

However, the Government-backed Committee on Mutagenicity has dismissed the research.

It argues that while sodium benzoate has been shown to be harmful to yeast cells, human cells are stronger. (The questions to ask here are, what about folks who consume large amounts of the chemical, and even though human cells are stronger, how quickly can the body, especially the liver, neutralize the toxicity, and over what time frame? "... good health and sustained wellness is dependant on the rapid removal of waste.")

Research by Southampton University found that sodium benzoate was one of seven additives - the six others are food colors - that can lead to hyperactivity in children.

The Food Standards Agency has called for the six colors to be withdrawn from products but not sodium benzoate.

The Daily Mail has campaigned for a ban on harmful additives.

A Coca-Cola spokesman said: "We are continuously listening to our consumers' thoughts about ingredients."

The firm stressed that E211 was approved as an additive by many bodies around the world including the European Food Standards Agency. (See Corporate America vs. Consumers.)

Corporations are putting consumers at risk!
"They exist to make money for stockholders,
not to serve the needs of the consumer.
They're about sales, not about service.
It's a matter of profit over prudence.
To big to fail is too big to serve.
To serve is to succeed."
'The Doctors' video.

MEDICALINSURANCE CORPORATE FLAG

"A corporation's first purpose is to make money for
its stockholders, not to serve the needs of consumers.
The BP-Gulf Coast oil disaster is an example of what can
happen as a result of a corporation's obsession with profits and their
indifference and insensitivity to peoples' needs." -- Opticianry Review

"Big Pharma is remarkably good at creating diseases and convincing us
that we have them -- even when we don't. They've gotten so good at it
that seven out of 10 visitsto the doctor's office now result in prescriptions.
In 2004, spending for prescription medication was $188.5 billion, almost
five times what was spent in 1990, accordingto a report by the Government
Accountability Office. Are we getting sicker? Or is the pharmaceutical industry
just getting really good at telling us that we are sick?" -- Alison Fairbrother

Given the history of the food and drug multi-national corporations, it's a
good idea not to consume many of their products. For instance, if you
look at the history of aspartame, how it got approved, and how it still
remains on the market, there's plenty of reason to use great caution.

Due to the power and corrupting influence of Big Pharma, the teaching
of nutritional science and the use of vitamin and herbal supplements is
not taught to any significant extent in our medical schools. The obvious
reason is that teaching this science reduces the use of prescription drugs.
