Cheat'N Low: The Beginning

My name is Catie, and I am a twenty-year old young woman with a cause.  I am blogging about the evil nature of artificial sweeteners and why they are harmful to the people that consume them.  I titled this blog "Cheat'N Low" after the familiar sugar substitute "Sweet'N Low".  This title emphasizes how fake sugars are being marketed to people as healthy substitutes for sugar when they are really harming our bodies in countless ways.  They do much more harm to the human body than good, therefore cheat us and trick us.  I strive to raise awareness about the hidden negative affects that artificial sugars have, and enlighten anyone who consumes too much of it.  I am passionate about living a healthy life, and this problem keeps many from doing just that.

My personal experiences with being legitimately addicted to these products at a younger age make me a compassionate, reliable and credible recourse.  I understand being dependant of Diet Coke, and loading my coffee up with little blue packets, and how horrible I felt before I cut it our of my life.  With this blog I hope to help people realize the damage diet sodas are doing to their bodies and hopefully inspire them to make a change.
