Article: The Low Down On Artificial Sweeteners

Here's an idea, stop making sugar and sweet foods a staple part of your diet. You can create as many studies as you like saying that these products are perfectly fine for us to consume. But the real world consequences of these products can be seen everyday. Wasn't it just a month ago where a article about diet supps that don't actually work was posted on AM that stated, basically just because "product A" has this reaction on a rodent doesn't mean it's going to react the same way in humans. So couldn't we come to the same conclusions with artificial sweeteners?

Agreed. What most consumers don’t know is that aspartame’s approval was one of the most contested in FDA history. Consumers have reported more than 7000 adverse reactions to the FDA ranging from dizziness to headaches to seizures. But the makers say it is the most tested food additive ever, and that it’s safe for the tens of millions who use it worldwide....

7000 out of how many consumers? Over what period of time?
 
I keep them to a minimum. I like diet coke and have one a few times a month. Is it going to harm me? Probably less than the harm the stress worrying about it will cause. I also take BCAA's with splenda. Oh well.
 
I still don't trust the artificial sweeteners... This is why I mix my own preworkout drinks and buy unflavored whey isolate.
