17 Cancer Causing Foods You Have To Stop Eating

7. Artificial sweeteners

Artificial sweeteners are produced using chemicals, thus the “artificial” part. They are marketed as a better alternative to sugar, but there’s no evidence to prove that they are safe. Studies have suggested that they can cause the production of a toxin DKP in your body, which could cause brain tumor.

Alternatives – The best choice when it comes to sweeteners is those that are plant-based like stevia. You could also use applesauce or organic maple syrup in baking recipes.
