Artificial sweetener vs. sugar: Which is better for you?

[@TheJanet4321]

I hate that they show all of the people in the background. It is VERY distracting. That was one of the worst changes they made years ago - that's why I rarely watch this. This story was very informative though - just unpleasant to watch.

There is nothing unpleasant about it. Behave!

It's distracting actually ​@@guru6831

Amazing video. The doctor seems very smart and people-friendly. 10/10. 4.9 stars.

I found out i am at a high risk foe diabetes so i have to cut out sugar from everything! So now i am looking for sweetness alternatives

[@Rayan.Mortazavi]

thanks for ur guide

[@rubbadubdub6543]

So both artificial sweeteners AND sugar may cause DNA damage and/or have carcinogenic effects with high long-term exposure? I’d be interested to know what constitutes high exposure.

[@TheSniMaster]

A whole lot of nothing

[@Tosca767]

I stick to real sugar…I just eat less of it!

[@Royale_with_Cheeze]

I avoid artificial sweeteners at all costs. While sugar isn't really good for you, artificial sweeteners are really bad for you.

[@moon-pw1bi]

how

[@Royalle_with_Cheese]

​@@moon-pw1bi Those chemical additives, if taken in large enough quantities, can cause cancer. Some folks will drink a two liter bottle of diet soda in two days. The funny part is, a whole loaded pizza with the diet soda, because that's how to lose weight...

[@AndrewTran-bleh]

uhh no, you got it backward. Sugar has proven health risk while sweetener's is unproven. The only experiment about harmful effects of sweetener was on mice and they were fed tons of sweetener for years.

[@PSYCHOBEVO]

​@@AndrewTran-bleh Yeah, it's baffling to see people get it so backwards. Sugar is just bad for us in every way, harms teeth, causes weight gain, heart disease, high blood sugar, etc. The more we minimize consuming it the better.

[@randomenvelope]

Sweeteners taste NOTHING like sugar. They are bitter and gross.

[@ItsBrown__]

I don't think you're been consuming sweeteners pal

[@randomenvelope]

@ItsBrown__ no you just have a different pallate, find someone who doesnt like sweeteners and ask them why. Cuz it tastes bad.

[@avocadoooo186]

​@@randomenvelopethe problem is not that it's bitter, because it normally isn't. The main problem is that it is sweet for too long, while sugar loses its sweetness quickly

[@randomenvelope]

@@avocadoooo186 it tastes disgusting what are you talking about

[@avocadoooo186]

@@randomenvelope it depends and you will get used to it. Normal sugar still tastes better. As a kid my favorite cola was sugar free because it is sweeter. But I haven't had sugar free cola for years. All I wanted to say is that the weird taste isn't bitter, it normally is just the sweetness staying in your mouth for way longer

Lol the risk ???? What’s the risk of putting a chemical that doesn’t belong in your body ???? Lol just drop synthetic ingredients and drop sugar !!! And veggies !!! People need to look into carnivore and drop ultra processed foods !!!
