Potential Warnings & Concerns

1. Artificial Sweeteners:
   • Some studies suggest long-term consumption of aspartame or sucralose may be linked to metabolic issues (e.g., insulin resistance, gut microbiome changes). However, regulatory agencies (FDA, EFSA) consider them safe within recommended limits.
   • Sucralose is heat-stable and may persist in the body longer than natural sugars.
