    Interesting. I've also been thinking about articles I've read saying artificial sweetners seem to increase appetite. So many foods/fluids that we're allowed pre-op are sugar free, meaning artificial sweetners. I sure don't need any help increasing my appetite (OK, quit with the excuses Fae! ). *sigh*

    The article only specifically mentions saccharin by name. I wonder what other sweeteners were tested. Mainly, I'm interested to know if the less artificial ones like Monk Fruit or Stevia have similar effects.
