    Be somewhat wary of artificial sweeteners, most of them are relatively new and so have unwanted side effects ore unknown side effect. (I geuss it’s like vaping : better than smoking but not great). Some known ones include : --cancer-- (edit : the cancer part is wrong aparently, see coment bellow) and obesity because you body cranks your calorie retention to the max (it sees a full can of something that tastes very much like sugar go in and no calories come out so it goes "wow, i’m really bad at extracting and storing energy. Let’s improve that ! And you get fucked next time you eat sugar) anyways, as with everything, be mindfull with consumption

      The aspartame cancer study is a complete joke. They fed those mice a x1000 higher concentration of sweetener than any human would ever eat
