Some folk can get away with it. Aspartame is the real bad one. But all artificial sweeteners can cause probs for some folk.
I have been on GH for the last 7 months. My blood sugar would get high in the morning even before I eat anything on just 3iu. I checked my blood sugar and it was always 10-20 points higher after consuming diet soda even if it is a stevia soda it was elevated(Called Zevia soda which are pretty good and less bad for you as the others.)
I would just try giving up fake sugar for 2 weeks and see how you feel. If better you may be one of those folk that are effected and it is better just top drink water, water with lemon or tea and tea with lemon. (Also lime) Those are my go to drinks. Tea is healthy with no chemicals or such like soda or fake sweet drinks.
sofargone, i think that stuff is better than aspartame, splenda, and sweet n low.
Good conversation fellas.
