14. Artificial sweetener deception

While some studies have found that artificial sweeteners may have associations with increased cancer risk, the results of this research have been inconsistent. For example, some studies have found that artificial sweeteners may cause an increased risk of cancer in postmenopausal women in the US but not in healthy European adults. Reviews of some of these studies have determined that they have only resulted in weak evidence for an association between artificial sweeteners and cancer risk. Still, it is crucial to be aware of these study results to make informed decisions for your own health.
