Studies and experiments in mice and humans have shown that the chemical pathway still has the potential to adversely affect the microbial flora of the gut and therefore, affect glucose metabolism .

These are the first causes of diabetes risk when the body's tolerance of glucose is disordered.

However, for the volunteers who participated in the experiment, the results also showed that the glucose tolerance reaction in each person was different when given the sugar.

This result shows that for diseases related to chemical transfer such as obesity, diabetes need specific research to find the relationship between the characteristics of each gut microbiota for each type of food Products and drinks commonly used; from then on, it is possible to develop effective treatment regimens.

Dr. Eran Elinav of the Department of Immunology (Weizmann Institute), who chaired the research project, concluded that natural sugar substitutes are now widely used in beverages and food. making obesity and young diabetes a plague in many countries; especially when consumers also have misconceptions about their effects.
