I used real sugar for ages.
I still eat the same amount of food every day, and use the same amount of fake sugar as I would the real stuff. I do completely agree with what you say though, it can easily be just as bad/worse if you don't use it right.

i went out with a personal trainer for a little while
and he was adamant that you should be using the real stuff. for example, he said never mix animal and vegetable - eg fry vegetables in a drop of olive oil, but use organic unsalted butter if you are cooking meat/fish.

he was a walking example of his own healthy eating tips, but god he was dull.

And a credulous meat-head.

i am trying to remember the name of his diet
i think it was along the lines of the metabolic diet, ie some people should eat some things, and others should eat others.

i switched off after a while. he was quite depressing to date, even with a 6pack of iron.
