Artificial Sweeteners and Additives

Artificial sweeteners and additives, found in a variety of processed foods, have long been the subject of debate regarding their potential health risks. Some studies have suggested a link between artificial sweeteners like aspartame and an increased risk of cancer, although evidence is not conclusive. These additives are often found in diet sodas, sugar-free snacks, and other processed foods.

While the FDA regulates artificial sweeteners and considers them safe for consumption, it’s wise to consume them in moderation. Opting for natural sweeteners like stevia or honey, and choosing whole foods over processed ones, can be a healthier choice for overall well-being.
