Eating too many sugar-free sweeteners might be linked to health problems like weight gain, heart disease, diabetes, some cancers, bad pregnancy results, and seizures in sensitive people.

People who drink diet sodas and other artificially sweetened drinks may be more likely to have a stroke, heart disease, or even die sooner — even if they’re not overweight or don’t smoke.

Drinking more sugary drinks like soda is linked to a higher chance of heart problems, partly because it makes you gain weight, but also because it directly messes with your blood sugar, insulin, fats in your blood, and blood pressure.

When people eat or drink things with low-calorie sweeteners like they normally do, studies show it doesn’t hurt their health.

Artificial sweeteners might be bad for your health in the long run, so we should use them carefully, know what we're eating, have stricter rules, and do more studies to figure out how to stay safe.
