Zanetti: We've spoken about Icardi too much

Inter vice-president Javier Zanetti said there has been too much talk about Mauro Icardi amid uncertainty over the star's future in Milan. Icardi has not played since he was stripped of the captaincy last month, with the disgruntled striker claiming to have been injured but Inter initially said tests could not uncover a specific issue. Linked with the likes of Real Madrid, Juventus and Napoli amid a contract stand-off, Icardi returned to Inter training on Tuesday. Asked if Icardi could be in line to face Lazio in Serie A action on Sunday, Zanetti said: "I think we have talked about him too much. "Now we must focus on the field because it is fundamental for the season finale." Inter are third in Serie A, two points clear of fourth-placed AC Milan following their derby victory prior to the international break. Zanetti added: "We have the goal of qualifying for the Champions League, 10 games are left and on Sunday we meet a direct rival. The team is preparing...

What's Up at Cargill

To me it is unconscionable to market these manufactured sweetener products as they are man made and not in the whole, natural form.  What bothers me more is the lack of responsibility shown by the USA national nurse practitioner (NP) association that has Cargill's stevioside extract and erythritol combination product, 'Truvia', sponsoring an upcoming meeting/conference.  
As a long time NP I personally do not use any of these products because I know the science behind the ingredients and I know they can cause adverse effects.

Now Cargill takes it one step further with its joint plan to engage in making a fermented "rebiana" with Evolva.  This manufactured in the lab/factory "stevia" is made with yeast and low cost plant sugars.
Stevia extracts – without agriculture?
Evolva and Cargill join forces on fermentation-derived extracts -
Swiss firm Evolva Holding has partnered with Cargill to develop and commercialise stevia extracts derived from a fermentation process, rather than through traditional extraction from the stevia plant.
Not only should you know what is in your food and how it is made, you may wish to consider that there may be adverse effects. (See "Problems with new sweetener" below.)
