I have been an observer of health issues for all of my life. Artifical
sweetners give a false impression that calories are the only thing that
counts when watching what you eat for better health. Now another study
gives a possible explanation of what people that attempt to control
fat and use artifical sweeteners so often fail.
A recent study by two Purdue
University researchers found that the consumption of artificial sweeteners
may impair your body's natural ability to monitor calories. Researchers
concluded that the unconscious ability to monitor caloric intake helps
to control overeating; therefore, the loss of that ability could lead
to overall weight gain. This recent study is yet another blow to the
artificial sweetener industry, as decades of research already suggests
that these sweeteners contain dangerous neurotoxic chemicals that are
extremely detrimental to human health.
Use Artifical Sweeteners and Get Fat
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In the recent Purdue studies, researchers gave rats two different liquids
for ten days. One group received sweet liquids that contained real sugar,
so the relationship between taste and calories was consistent. The other
group received sweet liquids that contained the artificial sweetener
saccharin, so the relationship between the sweet taste and the actual
calories was inconsistent. After ten days, researchers allowed the animals
to eat a sweet chocolate snack. The rats that were given the drinks
sweetened with saccharin were less able to tell how many calories were
in the snack, and at mealtime ate 3 times as much as the rats given
the drinks sweetened with real sugar.
If you cannot tell how many
calories you need to feel satisfied you are going to eat more. People
are conscious of their bodies are working against themselves when they
order non caloric foods that taste like they have calories. It throws
your system out of balance.

Susan Swithers, one of the study's authors, interprets the results as
follows: "What we are actually suggesting from our study is not
that artificial sweeteners are going to make people gain weight. They
are actually losing an unconscious ability to measure their food intake
when they consume artificial sweeteners. So if people do consume artificial
sweeteners, they have to be more conscious of the calories involved
when they do eat sweet things."
I guess she means that if you
are going to use artifical sweetners that you must be even more conscious
of what amount of caloried and types of food you eat. It would seem
to me that avoiding artifical sweeten foods would be a more practical
answer. I suggest testing the food with the artifical sweetner and seeing
if you get a stress reaction. My experience is that you will get a stress
reaction and find an inhibited muscle test.
