Research Notes on Artificial Sweetener Safety
The safety of artificial sweeteners has often been the subject of controversies. According to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, artificial sweeteners such as Aspartame, Saccharin and Acesulfame-K (potassium), have been proven safe as long as people will follow the acceptable daily intake levels (ADI), over a lifetime. However, some researchers are still doing further studies to verify the safe use of artificial sweeteners.
