Sugar Defense for Cupcakes and Cola
Chips, soda, french fries and candy bars. For many Americans, junk food isn't an occasional treat, but the bulk of their daily diet. Busy lifestyles and easy access to fast food make eating well difficult for many people.
However, a new discovery, Emulin, could make our worries about junk food a thing of the past.
As Americans eat more processed, sugary foods, their waistlines grow -; and so does their risk of developing Type 2 diabetes. In Type 2 diabetes, the body loses its ability to regulate glucose, a sugar that usually fuels the body. Once known as adult-onset diabetes, Type 2 diabetes now afflicts many American children.
Fruits and vegetables contain sugar, but the sugar found in whole fruits and vegetables benefits human health. No one becomes diabetic from eating too many oranges. Why? Because fruits and vegetables contain compounds that help protect the body from the sugar that they contain.
Scientists have isolated one protective compound that occurs in tropical fruits and vegetables. They named the compound Emulin. It is flavorless, textureless and completely natural. It has the potential to revolutionize processed food.
Should a soda manufacturer put Emulin in their product, people, including diabetics, could drink soda containing real sugar without experiencing a sugar shock to their system.
Emulin could be added to any manufactured food, making cupcakes, pudding cups, breads, pasta, cookies, chips, sodas, candy or baking mixes safe for diabetics and more wholesome for everyone else.
Human trials with Emulin are currently underway. So, in the meantime, the scientists want to know where Americans would like to see Emulin used.
