Here's a link to the latest research we reference (The Israeli Study):

From years of research, we know that artificial sweeteners aren’t the best choice when it comes to our health. But if you’re anything like me, sometimes it’s not enough just to have someone tell us something is bad for us, we want to know the specific risks at stake. Well, there are actually several health risks attributed to many artificial sweeteners. And in this video, you're going to discover one of the biggest dangers of artificial sweeteners, and it has to do with how they affect our gut flora health.

For the entire list of health risks associated with artificial sweeteners:

But first, some brief science. Now, as nasty as this may sound, our body actually has way more bacteria cells (around 100 trillion) than ‘human’ cells (around 50 trillion). Twice the amount. And while that might be a little unsettling, that army of bacteria (gut flora) living throughout our digestive tract plays a major role in our overall health and wellness. When they’re happy and healthy, we are too. But when they’re not, our health starts to suffer.

The Role of Gut Bacteria For Our Health (0:34)

So before we get into the negative effects artificial sweeteners have on our gut flora, let’s take a closer look at the essential roles these gut bacteria play in our overall health. They have a hand in everything from our metabolism to the strength of our immune system and even our brain health. These little guys are basically running the show.

Artificial Sweeteners and Gut Bacteria (1:22)

So now that we know how essential our gut bacteria is to our health let’s look at how artificial sweeteners affect our tiny friends. And the most compelling research we cover in this video is from what’s known as the Israeli Study. Researchers compared the effects of 3 popular artificial sweeteners against glucose and sucrose.

Here’s a link to an overview of the research:

As you’ll discover, the results of this study showed that artificial sweeteners increased the amount of bad gut bacteria (closely associated with obesity) and lowered the amount of healthy gut bacteria. We cover the entire spectrum of effects and impacts in the video.

Natural Sweeteners That Still Taste Great (5:15)

Now, the good news is that there are several great alternatives out there for us meaning we can avoid any potential risk from artificial sweeteners altogether.

Here are our top recommendations: Xylitol, Monk-fruit, and Stevia.

Now it’s still not a good idea to regularly consume tons of these natural sweeteners because they will rock your blood sugar. Additionally, anything at high doses will often carry additional side effects. But, they’re certainly a much better option to the artificial sweeteners discussed previously and are completely safe in moderation.
