🚨 Warning: Artificial Sweeteners & Health Risks! 🚨
The latest (July 2024) large-scale meta-analysis published in the Journal of Nutrition, has revealed alarming associations between the consumption of artificially sweetened beverages (ASBs) and increased risks of mortality. Here’s what you need to know:
💡 What was studied? The link between ASBs and death from all causes, cardiovascular disease (CVD), and cancer, across 2.2 million participants.
🔬 How was it studied? Researchers analyzed 11 studies (USA & Europe) over periods ranging from 7 to 29 years, adjusting for factors like age, BMI, smoking, and physical activity.
📊 Key findings:
Those with the highest ASB intake had 13% higher risk of death from all causes.
The risk of CVD death was 26% higher for those consuming the most ASBs.
Consuming more than 1 ASB per day significantly increased the risk of all-cause mortality.
The overall evidence points to the dangers of consuming too many artificial sweeteners.
This increasing trend for manufacturers to add dangerous sweeteners to their products has not escaped the collagen industry.
Unfortunately, many collagen companies use erythritol, stevia, and sucralose to sweeten their flavoured collagen powders.
❌ Our advice: Stay informed and prioritize natural, healthier options to protect your long-term well-being!
