>> Interesting that this article didn't mention sucralose (Splenda).
I know someone whose baby was very active in womb to the point that she worried about it. And then she read that sucralose was shown to cause miscarriage in animals so she stopped eating it (it was in something she ate regularly) and the baby calmed right down. But that's just one datum.
Sorry, but anecdotal evidence like that is not a valid counterargument. To the contrary, anecdotal evidence is oftentimes damaging. It spreads misinformation and fear, and is a common tool used by those with perverse agendas (I'm not imply this is the case here).
