På Atkins skal man helst ikke drikke i hvertfall aspartam, det hevder boken at er fy-fy i hvertfall, men det er vel litt personlig.
Jeg fant ut at Cocacola light har byttet ut aspartam med sucralose i går!
Se på ingrediensene hva slags søtstoff produktet inneholder, de produktene hvor det står "splenda" eller "sucralose" er de du skal se etter.

You must determine which artificial sweeteners agree with you, but the following are allowed:
sucralose (marketed at Splenda®), saccharin, cyclamate, acesulfame-K. Natural sweeteners
ending in the suffix "-ose," such as maltose, fructose, etc., should be avoided. However, certain
sugar alcohols such as maltitol do not affect blood sugar and are acceptable.
Saccharin has been extensively studied, and harmful effects were produced in the lab when fed
to rats only in extremely high doses. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has removed
saccharin from its list of carcinogens, basing its decision upon a thorough review of the medical
literature and the National Institute of Science's statement that there is "no clear association
86
between saccharin and human cancer." It can be safely consumed in moderation, meaning no
more than three packets a day. Saccharin is marketed as Sweet 'N Low®. We discourage the use
of aspartame (marketed as NutraSweet' and Equal®). The FDA has approved the herb stevia for
use only as a supplement, not as a sweetner.
My preference, however, is sucralose (Splenda®), the only sweetener made from sugar.
Sucralose is safe, noncaloric and does not raise blood sugar. It has been used in Canada for years,
and the FDA recently approved it after reviewing more than one hundred studies conducted over
the past twenty years.
Note that each packet of sugar substitute contains about 1 gram of carbohydrate, so don't
forget to include the amount in your daily totals.
