Episode 17
There's a lot of conflicting and inaccurate information surrounding artificial sweeteners. Some believe them to be a certainty for putting yourself at risk for various negative health outcomes. Others believe them to be perfectly fine and see them as a healthy alternative to sugary drinks and snacks. I'll be pulling a study and reading directly from it to see how the claims made against artificial sweeteners stack up to the science conducted on them. Some of the topics discussed will be their role in cancer risks, increasing cravings, their effects on blood sugar, and more. I've also linked the study I'm reading in today's show so that you can read it for yourself if you'd like.
