Artificial Sweeteners Saccharin We all know what it is... Pink packets of "Sweet 'n Low" that sit on restaurant tables that we may have put in our coffee or tea at one time or another. Around for more than 100 years it is the oldest artificial sweetener, in 1977 the FDA required that all food containing Saccharin contain a warning label: "Use of this product may be hazardous to your health. This product contains saccharin, which has been determined to cause cancer in laboratory animals." In a study conducted by the National Cancer Institute during 1978 and 1979, it was concluded that heavy users of Saccharin, and products containing it such as Diet Soda, could be at an increased risk of developing bladder cancer. "Heavy use" was defined as "two or more 8-ounce servings of a diet drink per day," or "six or more servings of [packets of] sugar substitute per day." Saccharin, used long-term, does not promote good health, but if you must use an artificial sweetener (for example, if you are a diabetic), please choose Saccharin products over popular Aspartame-containing ones
