Nature published a study about the potential danger of artificial sweeteners.
[Eran Elinav, an immunologist at the Weizmann Institute of Health in Israel] and his team first tested the effect of three common artificial sweeteners — aspartame, sucralose, saccharin — on rodents. They found that each of the sweeteners induced a change in blood sugar levels that surpassed that of the mice who consumed actual sugar. And later tests involving the main sweetening agent in Sweet'N Low, saccharin, yielded similar results in both lean and obese mice.
