Sorry, I didn't mean to be that hostile, and I seem to have continued that in my other responses. Apoligises to all. There is a lot of mis-information around artificial sweeteners, I think it just triggers my "Frustrated with the internet" nerve or something. I agree, be skeptical, question, don't take things at face value. But, I'd add: be informed, look up where we are at in current day research. Diabetic research is huge, it isn't generally something to be skeptical of, there are people who's lives are saved, preserved, made better because of that research. But again, sorry for being a dick. :)

Well, apology accepted I suppose. However.. > There is a lot of mis-information around artificial sweeteners Sure is. And perhaps you're contributing to it. You sure haven't produced any evidence that you're right and everyone else is wrong. > it just triggers my "Frustrated with the internet" Well, your belligerent responses to people's polite, reasonable comments kind of trigger that in me. Let's not be part of the problem... > look up where we are at in current day research There have been two studies linked to supporting the claims made by myself and others. You haven't posted anything. Take your own advice! > Diabetic research is huge, it isn't generally something to be skeptical of And yet we're living in an unprecedented, worldwide obesity epidemic. Someone is obviously very wrong about something. It's my personal belief that in 50 years we'll be looking back on current nutritional "science" the same way we look back on "healthy cigarettes" in the 60s. We'll get it right eventually, but we sure haven't yet. (edited for politeness)

  Hmm, two studies. Try this: http://scholar.google.com.au/scholar?q=diabetes+and+diet&btnG=&hl=en&as_sdt=0%2C5 http://scholar.google.com.au/scholar?q=diabetes+and+diet&btn... The rest of your post seems to be just rhetoric vaguely around your injured pride and the subsequent posturing. Again I am sorry I upset you.
