I was just reading (again) that diet sodas are bad for you because of artificial sugar.I guit drinking cokes last March and started drinking vitamin water.Scientists can’t seem to make up there mind sometimes.First eggs were bad for you now they’re good.

Bill, don't forget oat bran. How many millions of tons of Oats were bought in the 80s and the 90s because we were told it would lower our cholesterol? Not that it isn't good for you. But it did not prove to be a cholesterol-lowering substance.

I am a firm, firm advocate for NO artificial sweeteners... with all the resources out there, we have no excuse for using them any longer. PLUS, there is not much that cannot be made with natural alternatives - Pinterest is overflowing with recipes that use all natural ingredients! I love to bake, and while I do some that are regular recipes, I do a lot of altering on most things to make them healthier.
