PROVEN: Sugar-Fee Diet Drinks Are NOT Healthier;

Artificial sweeteners still cause obesity and diabetes


Artificial sweeteners have been heralded by weight-conscious folks looking to cut calories for the last few decades. It’s hard to ignore the fact that dieters and health-conscious people alike have been led to believe that choosing a sugar substitute over the real thing is actually their best option — but is that really true?  Research continues to demonstrate that artificial sweeteners can be just as damagingas too much sugar (and perhaps, even more so).

Aspartame, sucralose and the like have been kings of the weight-loss industry for far too long, and it is beginning to look like science may finally dethrone them.  But, only if the masses rise up and replace the food industry’s phony synthetics with real food.

Artificial sweeteners linked to obesity, diabetes

“Artificial sweeteners are not risk-free,” Brian Hoffmann, Ph.D., assistant professor in the Department of Biomedical Engineering at the Medical College of Wisconsin and Marquette University, declared.

“They are a very controversial topic when it comes to health and nutrition … but they’re so prevalent in society that I think we owe it to ourselves to try and figure out what’s actually going on,” he contended. Hoffman and his team recently presented their research on artificial sweeteners at the annual Experimental Biology meeting in San Diego.

Hoffman, one of the study’s lead authors, says that their findings indicate that sugar substitutes contribute to metabolic disorder and disease through an entirely different pathway compared to regular sugar. Their research shows that artificial sugars alter the activity of select genes charged with processing and breaking down proteins and fats. (MORE)
