Fanta Grape: From fun to grave?

Here is a 2 L bottle of Fanta Grape soda with beautiful red grapes on the label. A statement decorated with green leaf gives you a false comfort feeling about the beverage: “100% Natural Flavors.” Yet another redundant statement on the front says it again: “Grape Flavored Soda with other natural flavors.” Make no mistake: […]

Stop Food Terrorism: Wal-Mart dinosaur cookies

Watch out!  It’s another back-to-school season. What this means for the food industry sharks? It’s time for them assault YOUR children; perhaps, not physically but… yes, chemically. For the food industry your children are just a market (see Food marketing to children) that is millions of brainless mouths and stomachs to trick into paying for […]

Fight obesity with STEAZ zero calorie green tea!

It’s my pleasure to introduce Steaz Zero Calorie Sparkling Green Tea  to you. What makes me proud this time, Steaz is produced in the USA! Steaz is a group of non-toxic, health-stimulating beverages, which, in my opinion, are marketed honestly, without embarrassing, dirty tricks. The beverage’s moderate sweetness comes with naturally derived extract of stevia […]

When You Travel: Try cheese sandwiches in Amsterdam airport

Last week I was on my way back to the US from a fun trip to Siberia (Russia). Let me share with you a few observations which you may find interesting and useful. When you flight domestically, the ubiquitous standard turkey sandwich, made of bleached wheat flour, is chasing you everywhere from LAX to ATL […]

365 Cola: Too much sugar

I have recently recommended Lemon Lime All Natural soda from Whole Foods Market. Too much sugar (6 teaspoons per 240 ml) was the only concern to keep in mind. Here is another all natural soda, 365 Cola, containing even more sugar – 11 teaspoons per can of 354 ml (7.5 teaspoons per 240 ml). But […]

Welch’s Light: Do not fool yourself

If you like Concord grape  flavor, Welch’s 100% Grape Juice is for you. But its ~ 300 g of sugar per 1.9 L bottle makes me feeling luscious so I prefer to dilute it well with cold water that helps to avoid health damaging sugar spike/crash effects. From the other hand, light, diet and zero […]

The Importance of Maintaining a Healthy Diet During Mesothelioma Treatment

While a healthy diet is important at all stages of a person’s life, it becomes especially important during cancer treatment.  For mesothelioma patients, a proper diet can help improve their overall condition and stimulate their body’s natural ability to fight off cancer cells. So what exactly does this “proper diet” entail? For cancer patients, their […]

Welch’s 100% Grape Juice

Recently I have recommended Great Value 100% Apple Juice which remarkably had no food additives wasteful for the human body, nutrients only. Here is another good example of that kind: Welch’s 100% Grape Juice which comes without any benign (yellow segments) and biochemically foreign (anti-nutritional, red segments) food additives. DyeDiet RECOMMENDED Welch’s 100% Grape Juice:  […]

How Do I Drink Sprite

I recently reviewed and recommended an All Natural Lemon-Lime soda from Whole Foods Market. Perhaps it has been created as a healthier alternative to its prototype known since 1961  – Sprite Lemon-Lime Soda, a product of Coca-Cola with 100% Natural Flavors as the label says. But it’s not all natural.                                                               Sprite Lemon-Lime Soda: Risk […]

Lemon Poppyseed Scones: From people who care

I have written a serial of angry warnings about infamous Lofthouse cookies which are, in my opinion as a professional chemist, nothing more than a chemical waste. I categorize them as a latent “food terrorism” in this country. You will hardly recognize their hazardless unless you are a chemist, a nutritionist or a DyeDiet follower. […]
