A recent study raises concerns about the effects of low- and no-calorie sweeteners on cognitive health. This long-term study found that regular consumption of low- and no-calorie sweeteners was linked to faster cognitive decline. Individuals who consumed the largest amount of these sweeteners had a 62% increase in the rate of cognitive aging compared to those who did not use these sweeteners. Although this study does not establish a direct cause-and-effect relationship, it highlights the need for further research into the neurological impacts of these widely consumed additives.
