Suger could give you diabetes and make you gain weight…but aspartame might give you inflammation and cancer, or so I’ve heard.
I bought some chocolate milk that said it had no sugar in it. I thought…well that’s nice. The milk is a little bit sweet on it’s own. But then when I came home I saw they put aspartame in it. Crap. Well…I’ll drink it up, but I’d rather have sugar than aspartame.
Sugar was too hard to quit - just tried -
I am using half sugar - half substitute -
Hope my next bloodwork shows better numbers for PD.
Aspartame doesn’t cause cancer that’s a myth. But it never made people lose weight either. It messes with your blood sugar because your body is fooled into thinking it had sugar.
Well, I wouldn’t exactly call it a myth. If you google aspartame and cancer there are studies that give probabilities to a link, while other sources dismiss it. I guess it’s one of those things the scientists will keep arguing about.
I’m diabetic so I minimize my sugar intake.
I use Splenda sweetener in my coffee/tea, I actually like the flavour better than sugar, but only in coffee/tea. In food sugar is king.
I’m suspicious about aspartame.
Have heard links to stroke.
I drink it and have lost 5 lbs so far. I think its good for me. I believe everyone has their own method and beliefs so i respect that
