...trouble with cyclamates (besides the sodium compound, there is a calcium combination for patients on low-salt diets) is that they do not behave predictably in the human body-unlike sugar, which is completely and naturally metabolized. Cyclamates break down in the body, forming chemicals, notably cyclohexylamine (CHA). This, in large doses (upwards of 50 times the probable human dose of cyclamate), is known to cause bladder cancer in rats. Because of the emergence of CHA, cyclamates injected into incubating eggs cause grotesque deformities in many of the chicks and kill others in the shell...
...agreed to increases in Government spending and in the credit supply that his successor, Saulnier, thought were too expansionist. In early 1960, he advised Nixon, then Vice President, that federal spending should be increased and credit eased to head off a recession that he correctly warned would hit its low point shortly before Election Day. Nixon could not persuade the Eisenhower Administration to adopt the Burns program. In Six Crises, Nixon wrote that "unfortunately, Arthur Burns turned out to be a good prophet." Nixon has said in private that he would have beaten John F. Kennedy if Burns' advice...
Diet drinks containing cyclamates must be removed from shelves by Jan.1. The announcement took some producers unaware. Instead of trying to fight the ban, Coca-Cola officials say that they are experimenting with other "formulations" for their Tab and Fresca diet drinks, and will probably switch to some other low-calorie sweetener. PepsiCo, which was obviously not caught napping, immediately announced that it will begin marketing within a few weeks cyclamate-free Diet Pepsi-Cola "with a touch of real sugar...
General Mills, General Foods and other major food processors that have extensive low-calorie lines will most likely change to some other sweetener. "The public will continue to look for other diet products rather than return to sugar products," says Marvin Eisenstadt, an official of Cumberland Packing Corp., producers of Sweet 'N Low, a sugar substitute made of saccharin and a cyclamate. It is unlikely, however, that dieters will switch to saccharin, since it often leaves a bitter taste. Obviously a big pot of sugar awaits the inventor who can formulate a new product that is safe, sweet...
...lousy home life. His uncle, the abbe (John Huston), gave him mighty whuppings in the stable. His mother-in-law (Lilli Palmer) fooled him into marrying her ugly daughter, then quickly began to make untoward advances of her own. Small wonder Sade went so quickly to seed, consorting with low women and doing mean things to them. "But it hurts," protests one of his lady friends. "Of course it hurts. That's what gives me pleasure," sneers Sade, just in case anyone in the audience is confused...
