This refers to the chemical-sweeteners
found in diet soft drinks and thousands of other healthy foods.
You actually Gain Weight by Using Artificial Sweeteners - Artificial sweeteners like Splenda (sucralose), NutraSweet (aspartame), Sunette (acesulfame K), and Sweet ‘N Low (saccharin) may possibly have serious health consequences and may be causing you to gain fat, instead of losing it. There are positive correlations between artificial sweetener use and weight gain, which flies in the face of ‘conventional wisdom’ to cut calories in order to lose weight.

There are positive correlations between artificial sweetener use and weight gain, which flies in the face of ‘conventional wisdom’ to cut calories in order to lose weight.
Experts have found that saccharin and aspartame cause greater weight
gain than sugar, unrelated to caloric intake. Artificial no- or low-calorie
sweeteners can stimulate your appetite, increase cravings for carbohydrates,
and stimulate fat storage and weight gain. Real sugar allows your body to
accurately determine that it has received enough calories, thereby activating
satiety signaling. Without the calories, your appetite is activated by the
sweet taste, but as your body keeps waiting for the calories to come,
sensations of hunger remain.
Aspartame may also cause weight gain because phenylalanine and aspartic
acid – the two amino acids that make up 90 percent of aspartame -- are known to
rapidly stimulate the release of insulin and leptin; two hormones that are
intricately involved with satiety and fat storage. Insulin and leptin are also
the primary hormones that regulate your metabolism. Experts have actually
linked increased consumption of artificially sweetened diet soda with obesity.
Most diet sodas contain aspartame; a few contain sucralose or other artificial
sweeteners, as scientists believe that artificial sweeteners may
‘short-circuit’ the body's natural ability to sense how much it has eaten. They
foil the efforts of our body's internal calorie counter, so we eat more without
realizing it. Aspartame (NutraSweet) in particular has been linked to tumors!
Splenda (sucralose), which originally was marketed as being made from sugar,
actually contains added chlorine molecules, which in turn are used to kill
micro-organisms in swimming pools! Consuming sucralose-sweetened foods or
drinks can reduce some of your good bacteria in your gut (probiotics), which is
not a good thing for your digestive system or your immune system!
At the same time, sugar and corn syrup sweetened foods and drinks are no good for you either! These can screw up your blood sugar and insulin levels and make you fatter, as well as giving you diabetes risk in the long term. There are natural alternatives such as stevia if you want to save on calories but still go the natural route, as it is a no-calorie, natural sweetener with a sweetness that is 30-45 times greater than that of table sugar. It's been used all over the world for years as a safe, natural no-calorie sweetener. Or, if you need the ‘sweet’ taste, choose raw honey instead of sugar or corn syrup.
