I swear, all you have to do is wait a while, years in this case, and all the synthetic foods people create and then market enthusiastically to their fellow humans prove to be bad for you.

It's hard to know how the creators and pushers of stuff like this get away with it in the end. New stuff should have long term testing.

Stick to food that you can imagine was available long ago.

Which reminds me I should stop using Quorn, which I sometimes do for handiness as a vegetarian. In 10 years time it will probably be found to do something awful to the body.

Any other foods you reckon we should avoid?

In this large-scale, prospective cohort of French adults, artificial sweeteners (especially aspartame, acesulfame potassium and sucralose) were associated with increased risk of cardiovascular, cerebrovascular and coronary heart diseases," the authors wrote.

"The results suggest that artificial sweeteners might represent a modifiable risk factor for cardiovascular disease prevention.

"The findings indicate that these food additives, consumed daily by millions of people and present in thousands of foods and beverages, should not be considered a healthy and safe alternative to sugar, in line with the current position of several health agencies."
Thinking out loud, and trying to be occasionally less wrong...
