>>44 Well fine, maybe I'm special and have an allergy to fake sugar over a long period of time. Although, I see all those real life case stories and I can't keep wondering.

I'm not a biochemist but I suspect that fake sugar changes the acid balance of the kidneys, because fake sugar is a base(alkaline). Acidity is what prevents stones from developping. As fake sugar isn't assimilated by the body it ends up in the kidneys and stones get formed, or something.

My point is, if one does not want to use real sugar, he should not use fake sugar either. Stay away from both.
