    Introduction: sweetener is a kind of food additive Sweetener is harmful to human body, so what's the harm? Xiaobian will introduce you According to your understanding of sweetener, what is the harm of sweetener to human body It is said that the harm of sweetener to human body is "carcinogenicity" In the study of carcinogenicity of sweeteners, there were two experimental evidences First, a study by the Wisconsin Alumni Research Foundation in the 1970s confirmed that saccharin sodium increased the incidence of bladder cancer in rats But after years of follow-up research, the alert was finally lifted, and the FDA removed it from the list of carcinogens in 2000 Because the dose of saccharin sodium can not reach the lowest dose of bladder cancer in rats, and the mechanism of bladder epithelial damage does not exist in human body The second evidence is that aspartame may increase the incidence rate of brain tumors, but this result was also negated by subsequent studies The independent agency of the National Cancer Institute of the United States reanalyzed the results of many studies that caused concern There was no correlation between aspartame and brain tumors The European food safety agency also issued an official statement in 2013 that aspartame is a "safe" drug Safe That is to say, artificial sweeteners have been strictly tested for a long time, and no evidence has been found that they have carcinogenic effect, so it is unnecessary to worry We must pay attention to our health Now our country's life is getting better and better With the food safety detector, we can detect whether the food we eat is healthy, so that we can safely eat it When we encounter food safety knowledge like food sweetener safety, you can pay attention to our safety net Our editor will give you a patient explanation Editor in charge: he xianrob
