Some sugar substitutes are linked to diabetes

Scientific American
quote:
In a new study of four sugar substitutes, researchers found that these nonnutritive sweeteners don’t just travel through the body unnoticed. The study results, published on August 19 in Cell, link two of the sweeteners—saccharin and sucralose—to spikes in glucose levels and suggest all four are tied to a shift in gut microbe profiles. Whether these findings translate into trouble, benefit or neither remains to be seen, and aficionados of diet drinks don’t need to trash the diet soda can just yet.
quote:
In 2014 researchers found a link between microbiome changes and blood glucose responses in mice after intake of sugar substitutes. To see if those same links applied to humans in the new study, the scientists selected participants from a potential pool of more than 1,375 people, ruling out anyone who consumed noncaloric sweeteners in their regular daily life. Some had unknowingly done so by way of protein powders, chewing gum, or low-sugar snacks or desserts.
quote:
The participants who consumed saccharin or sucralose had a steeper blood glucose response than any of the other groups. When participants consumed any of the four sugar substitutes, their gut bacteria profile changed during the two weeks of intake. Along with these changes, levels of the metabolic products changed, too. For example, in participants who took saccharin, the production of a type of amino acid increased, echoing patterns seen in people with diabetes.

If aspartame is bad for you, I’m a dead man.

I know the studies are still inconclusive, but I just default to this.

I’ll bet you wouldn’t. Thanks for illustrating how hyperbole can go wrong.

I used to put Splenda in my morning coffee and cereal every single day for a few years
The past several months I noticed 2 things occurring every single day
1- I would crash at 10-10:30 every single morning. I would be hyper and energetic all morning until 10-10:30am and then boom.
2- I was getting headaches every single day around 2-3:00
Every single day was like clock work with these 2 daily instances
3 weeks ago, I completely cut it out and the above (#1 and #2) no longer happen to me every single day

I love some real cane sugar. It may be all placebo effect, but I think I generally feel better if that’s basically the only sweetener I ingest.

Enjoy being obese. Regardless, prayers that you don’t get cancer from imbibing that toxic shite…

Not sure why anyone thought fake sugar would be better for you somehow?

I've never been a fan of artificial sweeteners. I just limit my intake of sugar.

The only one you ingest is the one that we know for sure is terrible for you?
