Listen "36. LMNT: When Nutrition Lables LIE."
Episode Synopsis
Here’s the article that first drew the WTYT? team’s attention to the LMNT issue and although you can’t find it on the LMNT website anymore (I wonder why?), here’s Robb Wolf’s blog post where he tries to defend the mislabeling of the LMNT electrolyte replacement drinks.Although there appears to have been only a small amount of maltodextrin in the LMNT drinks larger amounts of maltodextrin can raise blood sugar, to potentially dangerous levels – if you’re a diabetic you definitely want to know if this stuff is in your food!As promised, here’s that list of the (at least!) 57 different names for sugar and then Check out these links to see that yes, Oreos might well contain less sugar than KIND or SIMPLE TRUTH Granola!When a supplement is effective, is it because of the supplement or something else that shouldn’t be there? Check out this story about a “male” supplement which actually contained Viagra and diclofenac, both of which can cause life-threatening conditions.Thankfully the FDA has now recalled the above supplements but how many people were harmed and how many more tainted and/or harmful supplements are still out there?Got concerns about any other dietary supplements, let the team at WTYT? know - you might be our next episode!
