Splenda Alters Glucose Metabolism and Interferes With Beneficial Gut Bacteria!



Splenda (sucralose) is an artificial sweetener found in diet soda, foods and supplements. It is not good for you! Most recent studies show that it may interfere with reponses related to glucose metabolism, impede gut bacteria and cause glucose intolerance and interact with receptors for glucose absorption and trigger insulin. In other words, it screws you up metabolically!
