Regular consumption of artificial sweeteners can pose a number of health risks, including weight gain, heart disease and other health problems over a long period of time, according to a study by the University of Manitoba.

The study is published in the latest issue of the Journal of the Canadian Medical Association. The Canadian Diabetes Association and Health Canada still allow the use of artificial sweeteners, the article said. Now more and more people eat a variety of artificial sweeteners, such as aspartame, sucralose and stevia. About 40% of adults eat these saccharins in their daily lives. This means not only adding saccharin in small paper bags when drinking coffee, but also foods and drinks containing saccharin sold in supermarkets, such as pastries, sodas, yogurt, and salad dressings.

One of the participants in the study was Meghan Azad, a professor of health medicine who used saccharin instead of sugar until the study. She says people use saccharin instead of sugar to reduce calorie intake and avoid obesity caused by eating too much sugar. But the study did not find that replacing sugar with saccharin can help you lose weight. Instead, the researchers found from the new data that artificial sweeteners may be harmful to the human body, and it's not just a problem of thickening the waistline. If saccharin is used as a daily consumer product, it will also have a negative impact on the body's metabolic system, intestinal bacteria, as well as cardiovascular and appetite.

The team looked at a total of 30 existing studies that tracked 400000 people. Seven of them were random sampling studies of obese people, most of which were followed up for about 6 months.

Ryan Zarychanski, author of the paper, said that although millions of people in real life eat saccharin on a daily basis, only a small number are involved in his research project. Now, the team is following people who drink saccharin drinks for several weeks, and then collect their feces to analyze the impact on intestinal flora.
