[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It just gets your tastebuds used to tasting sweet things so that you eat more sweet things other than soda. You're better off adjusting your tastebuds to liking plain old water and recognizing sweet things as really sweet.[/quote] I think that the biggest concern of the researchers is that it breaks the connection between what you taste and what satisfies your body. Normally you are hungry, you eat something and your brain gets the signal that sugar is coming and it kicks off a chain of events, one of which signals to your body that you are satisfied. But when that system gets tricked over and over again, your brain learns not to trust the signals from your taste buds anymore.[/quote]
