NEWS YOU CAN USE: Not All Artificial Sweeteners Are Created Equal.

A recent model experiment from theLouisiana State University appears to finally prove that acesulfam-k may actively promote the deposition of body fat in the presence of insulin resistance.

Ok, the results have been derived in a Caenorhabditis elegans, a “worm”, but one that has long and actually surprisingly successfully been used as a “model for studying the basic biology of obesity” (Jones. 2009) – I know, I am not convinced either, but if the results do actually translate to humans, this would be major (bad) news for the food industry.
