Zero calorie sweetener linked to heart attack and stroke, study finds | CNN
A sugar replacement used in many stevia, monk-fruit, keto and other reduced-sugar products marketed for weight loss and diabetes has been linked to stroke, heart attack and early death, a new study found.
Moral of the story is: Don't drink that sh*t.
Drink water, you can have sparkling water if that's the thing that you miss.
Brew your own real (organic) coffee or tea. Use cream, not milk. (Milk is chock full of lactose, which is also a sugar.
Stop cultivating the taste-buds of a three-year old. Sweetened drinks are simply stupid, as they stimulate the release of insulin, giving one a high and then a low. And the purpose of insulin is to convert sugar into fat, for later, Even artificial sweeteners do this, as the body reacts to the taste. So, artificial sweeteners make you fat, as well. LOL at the scam of replacing a sweet sugar with sweet artificial sweetener. They are both as bad as each other.
Seriously folks we do not need sweeteners, be they sugar or artificial.
