Brain scans reveal Sweetener's hidden impact on neural pathways

NCT ID NCT07183254

First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 15 times

Summary

This study looks at how long-term use of artificial sweeteners changes brain activity and connections in healthy adults aged 18-30. Researchers will compare brain scans of people who consume a lot of sweeteners with those who consume little or none. They will also ask some low-consumption volunteers to increase their sweetener intake for 5 weeks to see if brain connectivity changes. The goal is to understand the brain effects of these common additives, not to treat any disease.
