WE LIKE TO EAT SWEET THINGS. THAT IS NOT GOING TO CHANGE.
Modern artificial sweeteners were developed so that we can have sweet things yet decrease the sucrose in our diet. They are sucrose replacements that do not have many calories if any, and do not affect insulin secretion which leads to the development of insulin resistance and eventual obesity or Type 2 diabetes.
Using sweeteners sounds like a great idea. The problem is they do not work. They simply do not lead to weight loss.
I will go over the various sweeteners and explain why they do not work. Not only that, they cause several other problems. Never the less, we are going to use some and I will explain which are better than others.
