Are sweeteners or is sugar worse for your health?

Question

In equal amounts. Please explain why.

Answer

Sugar is completely naturally occurring, especially in fruit. Splenda, equal, etc. is just a bunch of processed shit. Eat what your body was made to eat-real food. Sugar is a real food. However, I think added sugar is unhealthy. But I think artificial sweeteners are worse. I will eat added sugar (mostly when I'm eating out) by I avoid foods with artificial sweeteners. They taste horrible anyway

Answer

Sweeteners are way worse the only ones  that are ok are stevia in the raw and agave nectar

Answer

They are safe in moderation. We have switched to using honey as a substitute. Local honey will help with allergies, if in tea.

Answer

Splenda (sucralose) is known to cause migraines and severe headaches, to kill bacteria within your stomach, causing potentially severe digestive issues, etc. I get very sick when I have Splenda. 
Aspartame turns to formaldehyde in digestion. 
Artificial sweeteners react with your metabolism in a way that causes your body to hold onto fat, and to build fat.
Because of the way you react to the sweetness, your body expects the energy boost that comes with carbohydrates or sugar. When that energy boost is not provided, your body craves more food to provide it, causing overeating and fat storage.

Sugar isn't "good" for you. Stick with fruits and honeys for sweetness when you can. That said, I'd always choose sugar over artificial sweeteners.

Answer

Depends. If you're diabetic, sweeteners can be a great replacement for added sugar in foods.
Natural sugar from fruits and other foods are not harmful, but too much natural sugar added in food can be harmful. 
Moderation is key, like someone before me said.

Answer

Sugar is natural but sweeteners contain chemicals and artificial stuff to make it sweet, this in turn will cause more damage to your kidneys. And stevia has been founded to cause damage to glands and your immune system which could lead to you becoming prone to infections and in extreme cases cancer. So just have the real stuff

Answer

Everything in moderation. Everything is unhealthy at high doses. Sugar itself is not bad - it's required for our bodies to work properly. It's when you have too much that it becomes a problem.

Answer

My boys pediatrician told me to never ever give my kids artificial sweeteners because there are studies that show it can negatively effect their growing brains. My ob told me to completely avoid them while pregnant. That's enough for me to just avoid them completely no matter what

Answer

Anything artificial can't possibly be good for u. Either natural oraganic or raw is best choice.

Answer

I use organic sugar. My grandma makes everything with stevia, a natural sweetener. Honey is good too.
