Artificial Sweetners Tricks Your Brain Causing Weight GainPosted by j2wu on January 21st, 2010
Do you believe artificial sweeteners can help you cut back on sweets to not gain weight? Do you use artificial sweetners such as Splenda, Nutrasweet, Aspertain? Did you know the Calorie-conscious consumers who opt for diet sodas may gain more weight than if they drank sugary drinks.
Why is that?
The study does hint at the idea that the sweeteners alter a person’s metabolism per Purdue University study released Sunday in the journal Behavioral Neuroscience.
There’s something about diet foods that changes your metabolic limit, your brain chemistry,”
What happens is that it changes your brain chemistry. Usually, when you drink a soft drink or eat with regular sugar, it revs up our metabolism.
When you drink Diet Coke or bite into a Balance Bar, your taste buds send a message to your brain that nutrition has arrived. When food or a drink with artificial sweetener reaches your small intestine, the receptors cannot find any nutrition. A message is then sent back to your brain that there is no nutrition–this message increases your appetite and at the same time your metabolism slows down not burning the caleries.
