Splendid news. I can ditch the artificial sweeteners and return to putting three sugar lumps in my tea, since, somewhat counter-intuitively, using sweeteners instead of sugar doesn't help with weight control.

Basically. There's some evidence that artificial sweeteners spike insulin as well, so a net gain of nothing in some cases.

The evidence is poor for those studies. Since in human trials it is still unclear if artificial sweetners can raise insulin levels.
