Why not use artificial sweeteners?
A lot of controversy surrounds the use of artificial sweeteners in foods. Apart from research pointing to cancer links, the latest research has shown that artificial sweeteners can make people put on weight because the sweet taste prepares the body for a large calorie intake.
“When this did not arrive the body demanded more food or burned less energy, which resulted in weight gain”
Behavioral Neuroscience Journal as quoted in The Courier Mail (12th February, 2008)
Mixing Directions: Add contents of sachet to 200 to 250mls of chilled water in shaker and mix.
