What was said
"Sucralose, for example, belongs in a family of chemicals known as chlorocarbons. And the type of bond between chlorine and carbon that occurs in sucralose does not occur in nature... Recently, they found that sucralose will actually break down DNA."
The presenter reveals that sucralose is chemically similar to banned pesticides like DDT and belongs to the chlorocarbon family, with bonds that don't occur naturally. He cites recent findings showing sucralose can break down DNA, challenging industry claims about artificial sweetener safety and the widespread assumption that zero-calorie sweeteners are health-neutral alternatives to sugar.
