Artificial sweeteners have names like
Splenda, Sucralose, Nutrasweet, aspartame,
Sweet’n Low, Sugar Twin,
Ace-K, Cyclamate,
Sucaryl, maltitol, sorbitol, xylitol, polydextrose,
hydrogenated starch hydrolysates, and
isomalt. These are made in factories and are
not natural foods, and the effect they have
on our health is not fully known. The soft
drink industry would like us to believe that a
drink that has no calories or is called “diet”
is good for you. Why take a chance? The
best calorie free beverage for your body is
water!
