Diet drinks and breastfeeding: sweeteners found in Baby's blood

This study looked at whether two common low-calorie sweeteners (sucralose and acesulfame-potassium) pass from a mother's diet drink into her breast milk and then to her baby. 82 breastfeeding mothers drank a diet beverage, and researchers measured sweetener levels in their milk and blood over 72 hours, plus a single sample from the baby. The goal was to gather data for larger studies on the health effects of early-life exposure to these sweeteners.
