The danger of artificial sweeteners

Do you use sweetener when drinking coffee or making cookies instead of using natural sugar?You might think that using artificial sweeteners (commonly known as the famous brand Splenda) is a better choice, but in fact this is a bad choice for health.

There has been no research on the effects of Splenda on human health, however a 12-week study of Splenda's effect on mice was conducted by Duke University. The results showed that Splenda caused an imbalance in the body's pH, interrupted absorption in the intestinal tract, reduced beneficial bacteria, swelling of the liver and calcified kidneys. It can be found that eating products that can cause cancer is not safe.

Splenda's main ingredient is sucralose, in addition to maltodexin and dextrose produced from corn . Splenda is 600 times sweeter than normal sugar discovered in 1976 by scientists in England. Although still advertised as a safe product, the inventors of Splenda admit that only about 15% of splenda is absorbed by the body, but they cannot confirm how much chlorine will be retained in the body. and how much is discharged. Chlorine is considered a carcinogen.
