It seems like the average consumer of diet sweeteners is already likely to be overweight, diabetic, or have other ailments. This article seems highly sensationalized. For the average person, the risk of sugar impacting blood glucose levels seems far riskier than any side effect of a NSS

From my understanding the evidence of gut biome modification is weak, and would require a large volume consumption. Some NSS will cause temporary stomach upset if it’s your first few times consuming them. But I don’t think this has any long term impacts on gut health. Some NSS are healthy for your oral micro biome (erythritol for sure).

I was curious about this as well. It seems like arbitrary short names were “premium” without any value in their meaning.
