Sucralose: 600 x sweeter than sugar. Disrupts microbiome. Increases pro-inflammatory mediators. It can disrupt the smooth digestive process. Increases bloating, diarrhea, and gas production. This is an artificial compound that is only 15% absorbable, 85 % will not. 

Acesulfame Potassium: aka AceK, contains methylene chloride. This can be carcinogenic. Some studies have shown and increase potential of having headaches, depression, nausea, mental confusion, liver and kidney effects, visual disturbances and even cancer. (Shown in long term exposure)

Aspartame: cancer study using an absurd amount to prove cancer causing. 200 x sweeter than sugar. 

Alternatives:

Stevia: 100-300 x sweeter than sugar. Tastes a bit like licorice, more bitter. Shows no major health pose. Mild antioxidant.

Monk fruit: much more antioxidant property. No known side effects. Swingle fruit or Luo Han Guo alternative names. 

Erythritol: acts like an antioxidant. Improves blood vessel function in type 2 diabetics. A lot more powerful than xylitol. 

Xylitol: Both erythritol and xylitol will help to kill bad bacteria. Improves the dentinal flow. Reduces biofilm production. 

Honey: composition is 80% sugar in a mix of both fructose and glucose. 1 tbsp = 64 calories. Can help prevent memory disorders and help with wound healing. Very useful with burn care. Careful and be leery of factory farming practices. Support a local bee keeper or trusted sources when purchasing honey. Avoid honey mixed with corn syrup or other products that dilute the efficacy of honey. 

Dentinal flow is influenced by nutrition and digestive values. Try not to over use sugar to be careful with mouth and teeth health. Clear biofilm with brushing teeth, potentially flossing a proper amount and you can use xylitol to reduce biofilm.
