Artificial....

I gave up soda cold turkey 18 months ago after drinking 6-8 a day of Diet Coke. Can't stand it now. I pretty much only drink iced tea. I don't like it real sweet but I have to have some sweetner in it. I prefer Sweet N Low, however some people tell me it is really bad for you. Any thoughts? I tried Truvia and like it but it is not available at most places unless I carry it with me. Anybody know much about artificial sweetners and their health effects.

    As long as they don't cause you medical issues (some people get migraines for example when consuming artificial sweeteners) than have what you want.

    There has yet to be any real, credible information out there to prove they are bad for you... unless you are a rat that consumes hundreds of packets a day.
