Z-Tox Flat Belly Burn Supplement - Do artificial sweeteners stop you from losing weight?

More and more people are substituting artificial sweeteners for sugar, but are they better? We see what conclusions the experts have reached
At this point we already know that sugar is bad for the body. Numerous studies have shown this and the World Health Organization has also sounded the alarm, dictating that we should only drink up to 12 teaspoons a day, just the amount that a common soft drink contains. Also, it is known to be quite caloric.
This has prompted many people to switch to artificial sweeteners, for health and weight loss. But are they really good and healthy? Perhaps the sweet substitute makes us fatter than sugar itself? Let's see what science says about it.
Sweeteners, good or bad for losing weight and being healthy?
The most commonly consumed sweeteners are saccharin, aspartame, stevia, and sucralose. And although they have hardly any calories, they do sweeten the drinks we drink or the food we eat, which makes us want to eat more.
Numerous investigations have shown that sweet foods trigger the release of chemicals and hormones, which interferes with the food reward process, that is, when the brain warns us that we have eaten enough.
The problem with sweeteners is that the sweet taste and lack of calories prevent the full activation of the food reward pathway. This causes us to have more appetite and sugar cravings, according to some experts, which increases total calorie consumption throughout the day.
Regarding the effects on human health, there are no clear conclusions in this regard, so they could be considered practically safe for human consumption.
Are they fattening or not?
Although it has been shown that they can cause us to overeat throughout the day, there is no strong evidence as to whether they make us gain weight or lose weight.
Several studies, such as the one published by the Canadian Medical Association Journal, have linked frequent consumption of aspartame, stevia, and sucralose with weight gain, heart problems, and diabetes. Research has shown that choosing these long-term sugar substitutes can lead to weight gain, obesity, metabolic and cardiovascular problems, and diabetes, among other diseases.
However, a recent review of nine studies has pointed out that artificial sweeteners were associated with slightly higher BMI, but not higher body fat. Other research has also shown that sweeteners help you lose weight.
So, sweeteners yes or no?
Most studies suggest that sweeteners do not because weight gain and that they may even be mildly effective for weight loss. However, they can make us eat more and less healthy throughout the day.
Of course, as you well know, it is best to reduce the consumption of sugar and sweeteners as much as possible. In coffee, for example, the ideal is not to add anything, and obviously read the labels of all processed food you eat well and reduce the consumption of soft drinks, both 'light' and 'zero' or common. Your health and your waistline will thank you.
