Concerns about artificial sweeteners have been around since the 1970s, when

studies found that large quantities of saccharin caused cancer in lab rats. The Food

and Drug Administration issued a temporary ban on the sweetener, and Congress ordered up additional studies and a warning label, but subsequent research found

the chemical to be safe for human consumption. More recently-created chemical

sweeteners like aspartame and sucralose have also been extensively studied, with

little evidence that they negatively impact human health, according to the F.D.A.

Some studies suggest a link between diet soda and early death, but experts aren’t sure if the drinks are to blame or if people who already live less healthy lifestyles are more likely to choose them. The FDA says artificial sweeteners are safe, yet research is mixed, some shows they might help with weight loss, while others warn they could spark more sugar cravings. Since the long-term effects are still uncertain, many health experts say the safest bet is to stick with water, tea, or coffee without added sugar.
