Diet Pop Linked To Weight Gain

“Psychologists at Purdue University have discovered in rat experiments that heavy use of no-calorie sweeteners can actually make it harder to shed extra pounds. The thinking is that the sweeteners make it more difficult to control food intake and body weight.”

So i guess all the diet pop that we’ve been drinking isn’t helping at all. I wonder what my good friend, Lara would say. I did remembered her only wanting diet pop.. from this pizza place that we went to in Singapore.. when she was there for a few years.. working as an accountant.

Apparently test were taken from rats that were given these zero saccharin calories sugar.. and had gain weight and put on more fats than usual. So I guess there is a no win situation eh.
