[QUOTE="Celeriac, post: 972918, member: 188243"] I quit sweeteners in 2012, my husband was convinced that Diet Pepsi and Diet Coke gave me mood swings. When animals are tested with substances they are always given megadoses. I'm not sure that's really helpful, it might be better to have the typical dose guzzled by a teenager. If the rat develops tumours on that, then it doesn't augur well. The problem with any kind of food additive, is that they only have to prove they won't kill you immediately. No-one does long term studies on safety or interaction, we are all the lab rats. I try to limit my exposure to any additives but some could be harmful, others not. I just don't know. I won't use them but if other people want to, why not ? [/QUOTE]
