Healthy eating interventions delivered in early childhood education and care settings for improving the diet of children aged six months to six years
CONCLUSIONS: ECEC-based healthy eating interventions may improve child diet quality slightly, but the evidence is very uncertain, and likely increase child fruit consumption slightly.

Acute Adverse Effects Related to Consumption of Nonnutritive and Low-Calorie Sweeteners
South Med J. 2023 Jun;116(6):450-454. doi: 10.14423/SMJ.0000000000001560.ABSTRACTNonnutritive sweeteners (NNSs) and low-calorie sweeteners (LCSs) are commonly used as sugar substitutes. Many popular media Web sites caution against the use of these sweeteners because of their potential adverse effects such as inflammation; however, there are limited supporting data. A Medline search of articles published between 2010 and 2020 was conducted, resulting in 833 articles, of which 12 relevant studies were included in this review. Acute adverse effects associated with the consumption of NNSs and LCSs are rare. A few studies cite ...
