I suspect as bluesinger pointed out, that the anti-sweetner articles are quite possibly propaganda paid for by "Big Sugar". Here in Florida, Big Sugar does a lot of illegal things and gets away with it because the state government is in their pocket.

I generally use Stevia Extract (which is as natural as refined sugar) and I find the Kal brand to be the best tasting for me (no weird aftertaste). I occasionally use Splenda as well.

Seriously, I think your individual results with artificial sweeteners might vary. I would however stay away from aspartame as I suspect Monsanto provided the safety tests the FDA used.
