Supplements
Just realised that my nice cheap vitamin C tablets are sweetened with sucralose.

And drugs com tells me, "... it is not expected to have a major effect on your health".

A single pimple wouldn't be worth getting from this stuff as I value things.
And any major health effect will be unexpected?

Oh good, and I expected all the family's "major health effects" from Covid, through cancer & Alzheimers to hemorrhagic stroke?

Sweeteners and Sweets Propel Preteens Into Earlier Puberty. #sugar #puberty #sucralose #glycyrrhizin #precocious #boys #girls

Howard G. Smith MD, AM on Instagram: "Sweets Propel Preteens Into Earlier Puberty The trend in the US and elsewhere around the globe is for children to enter puberty at earlier ages. Researchers are searching for an explanation, and the sweet and sweetened foods that preteens consume may hold at least a partial answer. It turns out that, for boys, the artificial sweetener sucralose, found in Splenda and many foods and drinks, increases the risk of so-called precocious puberty. For girls, glycyrrhizin, found in licorice, herbal teas, and other drinks as well as sucralose and natural sugars all increase a preteen girl’s likelihood of earlier puberty. Chinese researchers presented studies supporting these conclusions recently to the Endocrine Society’s 2025 annual meeting. Their research included data from 1,407 teens. The early puberty diagnosis was based on medical exams, hormone levels, and scans The teens' sweetener and sweets intake was quantitated via validated questionnaires and urine tests. These findings, if confirmed, could lead to modifications of dietary recommendations for young children and preteens. Meanwhile, these highly suggestive data are excellent reasons for parents to limit their children’s intake of sugars, both artificial and natural. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2025/07/250714052231.htm#google_vignette #sugar #puberty #sucralose #glycyrrhizin #precocious #boys #girls"

I found this in #Aldi. I'm not a big drinker of fizzy drinks, but I do like a treat occasionally. Ever since the sugar tax, most drinks have started using #aspartame and acesulfame k or #sucralose and I don't know, I just feel uneasy consuming them. What happened to saccharine, I don't think I've seen anything using that in years.

I've tried natural #stevia in its whole form and it's got such a bitter aftertaste! I've never seen processed stevia described in this way though! Also, fructose.

omg I am so fucking enraged right now. I just sat down and started munching on my bowl of bread and butter pickles while I was waiting for the rice cooker to finish, and I immediately realized they are artificially sweetened with #sucralose. Now I can’t get that goddamned chemical taste out of my mouth. I just dumped the rest of the jar into the compost bucket. And i was at the market last night and didn’t buy any more pickles because I figured I had a jar at home.
