Does sucralose cause weight gain?
No. Several studies have shown that low-calorie sweeteners can actually aid in weight loss and/or weight management. For example, researchers in one study found that when foods and beverages containing sucralose were used as part of a program to reduce calorie intake and increase levels of physical activity, overweight children were able to slow their rate of weight gain. While a few smaller studies have suggested that low-calorie sweeteners may cause cravings and/or weight gain, such an association has not been conirmed in larger studies, and the majority of the research still inds that low-calorie sweeteners such as sucralose can be helpful weight loss/weight management aids.
