Today, Tony and Marianna FINALLY dedicate an entire episode to the MONSTER that is artificial sweeteners... Whenever there are two camps surrounding a topic, like the anti-artificial sweetener camp, and the pro-artificial sweetener camp - the truth often lies somewhere in the middle. Today our hosts discuss:
- What the different artificial sweeteners actually are... (because you can't lump them all together)
- The difference between natural zero-calorie sweeteners like stevia & monk fruit - And artificial zero-calorie sweeteners like aspartame & saccharin
- The individual sweeteners and their impact on specific health outcomes like cancer, diabetes, weight gain, and more
- And the doses of each that seem to be completely safe, and when they might start to impact you
