But you know about studies. One recent study cited that sugar has no affect (in regards to hyperactivity) on kids as compared to the control group given artificial sweeteners. You would be hard pressed to find one parent who would agree to this. (This statement discounts all those whose position is “they’re the experts – they must be right”)
That doesn’t surprise me at all, if I take anything with NutraSweet in it there is a very high probability that my heart will fibrillate. I am on drugs to control it and I am hypersensitive. But the speed of the reaction leads me to think that it would be a very poor control in tests of this kind.
Diet Coke could be the end of me.
