Refined sugar making me want to puke/anxious

[yhelothar]

what do you mean by anxious? do you feel fatigue at all?

I feel the opposite of fatigue. I feel restless, hence I went to do aerobic exercise.

Hmmm I just asked my mom, who is a diabetic RN nurse about this and she says my symptoms says nothing about diabetes.

I asked her about seeing the doctor and she told that doctors are full of shit and most likely won't be able to help me. :\

Your believing the fantasy tales of someone wanting to be a "health" expert on the internet does not beat my personal experience. How about point out these peer reviewed studies on aspartame that backs up what you're saying. People read a Wikipedia article on digestion and then start imagining what must happen. Then they tell dopes like you and you believe it hook line and sinker.

Let me get this straight, you're the one disputing a fact based on your own personal experience and you want us to come forth with peer review evidence to dispute your anecdotal evidence?

Weight gain and insulin response to artificial sweeteners

Animal studies have indicated that a sweet taste induces an insulin response in rats.[14] However, the extension of animal model findings to humans is unclear, as human studies of intragastric infusion of sucralose have shown no insulin response from analogous taste receptors.[15] The release of insulin causes blood sugar to be stored in tissues (including fat). In the case of a response to artificial sweeteners, because blood sugar does not increase there can be increased hypoglycemia and increased food intake the next time there is a meal. Rats given sweeteners have steadily increased calorie intake, increased body weight, and increased adiposity (fatness). Furthermore, the natural responses to eating sugary foods (eating less at the next meal and using some of the extra calories to warm the body after the sugary meal) are gradually lost.[16]
A 2005 study by the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio showed that increased weight gain and obesity were associated with increased use of diet soda in a population based study. The study did not establish whether increased weight gain leads to increased consumption of diet drinks or whether consumption of diet drinks could have an effect on weight gain.[17]

you shouldn't be consuming refined sugars anyways.

I actually did searches as well, and found several articles stating several experiments could not reproduce aspartame causing increased hunger. For the sake of saving time check out the sources referenced under http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aspartame_controversy#Weight_change_and_hunger

but seriously someone positing fairy tales they decided to believe doesn't deserve anything more than anecdotal evidence against.
