Episode 7: Pour Some Sucralose On Me
There are lots of sugar substitutes—saccharine, sucralose, aspartame and more. We take a look at the latest surprising (to me) research on these artificial and alternative sweeteners and explore some questions about whether sugar substitutes may actually undermine your health goals. We’ll also talk about how the busyness of life can unravel the best health intentions and share the latest numbers from my health journey.
