The WHO (World Health Organization) recommends no longer using sweeteners.

Many consumers choose light products because they are convinced that they allow them to keep control over their weight or their metabolic risk, in complete safety. However, as scientific publications progressed, it appeared that the sweeteners, aspartame, acesulfame potassium and saccharin in the lead, promote diabetes can harm the brain would be toxic to the microbiota contribute to the intestinal porosity and increase the risk of cardiovascular accident .

The WHO (World Health Organization) seems to have taken these risks into account. A directive dated May 15 modifies its recommendations on sweeteners: recognizing some of their deleterious effects, it therefore advises against their use today because she ” confers no long-term benefit in reducing body fat, neither in adults nor in children” – except for “individuals with pre-existing diabetes”, adds the institution. It should be noted that this new position is given as “conditional”, “the association observed in the data may be skewed by the characteristics of study participants and complex patterns of sweetener use”.

The Director of the Department of Nutrition and Food Safety at the WHO, Francesco Branca, encourages consumers to take into account from now on other ways to reduce sugarsuch as eating fruit and preferring unsweetened food and drinks.
