Sugarlesse™ Supports RocketClub

4/8/2016

RocketClub allows you to earn startup company shares. NO money required - just your time!

WHAT IS ROCKETCLUB ABOUT?

RocketClub wants to give you a real stake in the companies and products you want to use and love, before they go public and make everybody else rich.

As they say “It sounds crazy and audacious, but upside in startups should not be limited to investors and company employees. Money is not the only resource startups need -- we help to provide them with early believers. Our mission is to make startup ownership available to everyone. After all, user adoption is the lifeblood of all products.”

WHY ROCKET CLUB?

9 out of 10 startups fail.

Startups have a HARD time getting the attention and feedback of users. The #1 reason startups fail is because no one wants their product. They lack the support from early users to refine their offering, build word of mouth momentum, and attract investor confidence.

Needless to say, early users play a huge role throughout the early stages of new startups. But whether it is Facebook, Oculus, Uber, or Snapchat, the ones who supported their products early did not get any upside. We believe that you, as a future user and customer should share in the financial upside of products you decide to support and help to grow.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

RocketClub enables startups to attract and build a community of early and engaged users.

Startups launch campaigns, explaining what they do, the number and type of users they are looking for, and how many shares each user will earn for completing a set of objectives.

HOW DOES IT WORK FOR YOU?

EXAMPLE

RocketClub is running a campaign NOW on its own platform to seek early members, offering 5% of the company to members.

PLUS

Earning RocketClub shares will also give you a small stake in all future companies on the platform. Cool, isn’t it?

OTHER EXAMPLES

RealTime Clinic - the most effective way to use telemedicine.

Pillow - follow-along sensual adventures for couples

Help to make it happen for them and you!

Is There Such a Thing as a Healthy Fudge?

1/20/2015

There is now. But why is that important?

Because traditional fudge and chocolate fudge are some of the highest calorie, sugar, and fat laden sweets known to man. With obesity and diabetes on a constant rise, it is imperative to find healthy alternatives that give you the same taste and richness.

That's what our ChocoFudge chocolates are about. And more. Much more.

Let's talk about traditional chocolate fudge.

Which is, essentially, a melted glob of chocolate, sugar, butter, and cream. It is to food what heroin is to Tylenol. (Okay, that's a bit strong of an analogy, but you get the idea.) One can only ingest, at most, a two-cubic-inch chunk of fudge before slipping into a diabetic coma. At $17 per pound, it seems to defy common sense that even a popular town's supply of tourists could buy the stuff at a clip that would support erecting an entire store dedicated to making and selling it. Yet, there is at least one, if not more stores in every picturesque town we'd go out of our way to find.

Despite the simplicity of its ingredients, fudge made with sugar is quite difficult to produce. The reason is that its creamy texture depends on the degree of crystallization sugar undergoes in the production process. If it is too much, or the crystals are too large, fudge will have a gritty texture and become too hard. Not enough crystallization and it won’t be fudge, but rather a thick, syrupy goo.

Thanks to SUGARLESSe™, it is very easy for us to produce both a healthy and true to goodness fudge that goes into all of our chocolates.

Why love our SUGARLESSe™ Chocolate Fudge?

Because it turns a dessert of your childhood memories, that your parents and grandparents indulged (bribed?) you with, into a healthy treat that you can actually enjoy guilt-free.

So, if you love fudge, but don’t want all the added sugar (except the sweetness, of course), these healthy, sugar-free creations are the way to go. Our chocolatiers spent more time than I'm prepared to admit to bring them into existence. The rascals!

Never mind. Thanks to their dedication and skills, now you can choose from 4 flavors:

Artificial Sweeteners Do Induce Glucose Intolerance, Resulting in Obesity and Diabetes

Saccharine, Aspartame, and sucralose

I came across two articles recently from the same authors in different scientific journals about how the consumption of the three most commonly used non-caloric artificial sweeteners — saccharin, sucralose and aspartame (Sweet-n-Low, Equal & Splenda)— directly induces a propensity for obesity and glucose intolerance in mice AND people, by changing the gut microbiome in a way that leads to absorption of more calories.

This is the abstract of the article from the Nature magazine (online edition):

"Non-caloric artificial sweeteners (NAS) are among the most widely used food additives worldwide, regularly consumed by lean and obese individuals alike. NAS consumption is considered safe and beneficial owing to their low caloric content, yet supporting scientific data remain sparse and controversial.

Here we demonstrate that consumption of commonly used NAS formulations drives the development of glucose intolerance through induction of compositional and functional alterations to the intestinal microbiota.

We identify NAS-altered microbial metabolic pathways that are linked to host susceptibility to metabolic disease, and demonstrate similar NAS-induced dysbiosis and glucose intolerance in healthy human subjects.

Collectively, our results link NAS consumption, dysbiosis and metabolic abnormalities, thereby calling for a reassessment of massive NAS usage."

And this is Seth Bilazarian, MD's insight:

"We have been using non-caloric artificial sweeteners for more than a century. Today the food industry is using them in ever-greater quantities in 'diet' foodstuffs and they are recommended for weight loss and for individuals with glucose intolerance and type 2 diabetes mellitus. This report shows that the three most commonly used non-caloric artificial sweeteners: saccharin, sucralose and aspartame change the gut microbiome in a way that leads to absorption of more calories and that compromises glucose tolerance."

Isn't it high time to develop new nutritional strategies tailored to the maintenance of healthy gut microbiota? Just like what SUGARLESSe™ offers?
