The human body's inability to break down #sucralose, an artificial #sweetener found in many zero-calorie food and drink products, is well established by scientific research. The compound is so stable that it escapes wastewater treatment processing and is in drinking water and aquatic environments.

Seems like avoiding sugar with something artificial
Is really all not that beneficial
When it causes strokes, heart attacks, and dying
I don't think it's really worth trying

If you use sweeteners you should read this.

@histoftech

Wow, indeed! Erythritol has been thought to be a safe noncaloric sweetener, unlike various others (most of which decimate the gut microbiome). Glad you posted this.

I stopped using refined sugar, and had used erythritol a little, but had drifted away after deciding that I would prefer savory to sweet. When I want sweet I eat a piece of fresh fruit or one dried date.

Thanks for posting that.
