Effects Of Artificial Sweeteners
The first artificial sweeteners were developed in 1879 and were reported to have a "sweetness level" greater than cane sugar. A higher level of sweetness means less of the sweetening substance needs to be used to create the same sensation of sweetness. As the usage of artificial sweeteners has increased, some people have noticed side effects associated with them.
Research labs spend many hours feeding various test subjects artificial sweeteners to find out what kinds of effects will take place. Several artificial sweeteners, like aspartame and saccharin, contain potential carcinogens or cancer causing agents according to lab tests. Sucralose, one of the most popular artificial sweeteners in the U.S., may cause problems because it contains chlorine. Avoid the Bad Side Effects of Artificial Sweeteners Several natural cane sugar substitutes are available with minimal to no known bad side effects or health risks.
