Sweetened Beverages, Genetic Susceptibility, and Incident Atrial Fibrillation
- delichon 3y agoThey keep getting this weird result in experiments of artificial sweetened drinks being associated with about the same amount of obesity as sugar sweetened drinks. So here's another that says it's associated with about the same amount of atrial fibrillation. It may be that in both cases the hormonal damage is done in the cephalic phase insulin response, which happens for all sweeteners. If true many of the biggest players in the food industry have a huge incentive to obfuscate it. And true or not, almost nobody wants to hear that all sweeteners are sub optimal nutrition to some degree.
