Risks & side effects
High-intensity sweetener
note
Use-level and blends matter. Packet fillers are different products. Regulatory class note — not scored.
FDA — High-intensity sweeteners permitted for use in food (2023)
WHO: not for weight control
caution
WHO 2023, conditional (low certainty): not for weight control or lowering disease risk — no long-term body-fat benefit. Not a safety ruling. Scored: the energy points it earns over sucrose are taken back on Everyday Health, Weight goals and Easy on the liver; not on Diabetic-friendly (WHO excludes people with diabetes).

Impaired glucose response (2-week trial)
note
Cell 2022 randomized trial: sucralose impaired glucose tolerance in healthy adults (20 per arm, 2 weeks, below ADI); aspartame and stevia did not. Small and short, a lab measure rather than a disease outcome, and the sachets carried glucose. Scored: glucose signal −7 on Everyday Health and Weight goals (not on Easy on the liver; synthetics are not on Diabetic-friendly).

Coronary heart disease link (cohort)
note
BMJ 2022 NutriNet-Santé (103,388 adults): HR 1.31 (1.00–1.71). Observational association, not proof of cause. The interval touches 1.00 — borderline. Scored: CV signal −7 on Everyday Health and Weight goals (synthetics are not on Diabetic-friendly; not on Easy on the liver), once per sweetener however many links.
