Artificial sweeteners toxic to digestive gut bacteria.

According to journal Molecules a study by Ben-Gurion University of the Negev in Israel and Nanyang Technological University in Singapore aspartame, sucralose, saccharine, neotame, advantame, and acesulfame potassium-k are toxic to gut fauna in mice.

This is very interesting to me as I suffer from cluster headaches and have noticed a connection in my digestive health and how often I get clusters. I switched to a mostly keto diet a few months ago and it really helped. I have also noticed that artificial sweeteners will almost always give me a migraine.

I’ve saved a few more articles on similar subjects I’ll be sure to post them.
