In today’s world, health-conscious people and diabetics around the world have been on a seemingly eternal mission to avoid refined sugar in the foods they eat. Unfortunately, virtually all of today’s low-calorie sweeteners can be dangerous to your health or simply miss the mark when it comes to mimicking the taste of sugar. With a great desire for a safer, natural, chemical-free alternative to sugar, it’s a real shame there isn’t an easily accessible, organic sugar alternative to sweeten our foods.
Well, actually, there is a fantastic all-natural substitute, although it was hidden from the public for many years due to money being hijacked by sugar replacement purveyors and pressure being put on the government for their private tax profits at the expense of health and wellness. welfare of the nation. Dubbed “The Miracle Fruit Conspiracy,” this deletion of a purely natural ingredient that could easily ease the shackles of diabetes problems, and thereby help citizens eat healthier, could make the list one of the boldest nutritional cover-ups of all time.
Sometimes going by various names including Miracle Berry as well as its scientific label Synsepalum Dulcificum, the miracle fruit is a particular shrub that hails from West Africa. Its red, blueberry-sized fruit contains a natural substance called miraculin that has the power to limit the sour and bitter taste buds on the tongue, altering the flavor associated with sour and bitter into sweet. You heard right; Miraculin can make all sour and bitter foods taste as delicious as the sweetest sugar you’ve ever tasted before. Miracle Berrie’s taste-transforming attributes are so powerful and strong that Miracle Berry has been used as a great alternative to sugar around the world for many years. So if this type of super fruit is really so wonderful, why haven’t you found it until now?
This particular conspiracy begins as a tale of two organizations. GD Searle, led by Donald Rumsfeld (yes, precisely the same former Secretary of Defense Rumsfeld), became the company assigned to move aspartame through the FDA approval process as an artificial sweetener, and Maralin, led by Robert Harvey, whose ambition was to use Miraculin from Miracle Berry as an alternative to organic sugar.
Mr. Harvey and Marailin achieved excellent results using Miracle Fruit as a sweetener. Their Miracle Berry-enhanced foods performed very well, with people choosing Miracle Berry-enhanced treats over sugar by a considerable margin. These positive effects unsettled sugar manufacturers and sweetener manufacturers who for no reason wanted their multi-billion dollar businesses to collapse because of a single organically grown ingredient.
GD Searle maintained substantial ties to the government, had to pay huge amounts to lobbyists, and was even able to insert a nice face as the new FDA commissioner just in time to be able to move aspartame through FDA authorization. Not only did they get their own chemically developed product accepted, but at the same time they were able to persuade the FDA to give Miracle Fruit a “food additive” designation the day before Marailin was created to launch its first run of the product. Regarded as a food additive, Mr. Harvy and Marailin were now expected to go through many more years of considerable scrutiny and expensive testing before the FDA could clear Miraculins for use as a viable retail sugar substitution. Additional time and expense imposed by the FDA ultimately led to the demise of Marilin and thus the use of Miracle Berry as an effective commercial alternative to sugar. In addition to the FDA reclassification, Mr. Harvie’s business ended up being broken into, looted and his research papers stolen and demolished. In the end, it appears that the big companies finally got their way and managed to thwart the prolific use of Miracle Berries as a viable marketed sweetener.
Today, tens of years later, after more or less being wiped off the map completely, Miracle Fruit is finally allowed to return to the American market and it’s only a matter of time until people realize what wool it was. pulled. over their eyes due to business and entrepreneurial greed. This natural plant-based sweetener is poised to start a revolution in sugar supplementation.
