     @kj00 problem is that you can rewire your taste buds to like them, and the established bacterial colony can make you crave them.
     
     Remember, your cravings for food/snacks is directly controlled by gut bacteria sending signals to your brain from the Gut-Brain Axis

     hmmm could it be.... the fake sugars which are fueling a massive colony of a bacterial strain in our guts that should not be there and would not thrive if they didn't keep getting fed daily?? Where else is the huge uptick in IBS and other digestive issues coming from?
     
     Almost all young people are exposed to ultra-processed foods and fake sugars their entire lives now. So many of us born, say, pre-1990 were not exposed to this.
     
     
     - Eat more fiber. Take supplements if you need.
     
     - Consume source of probiotics: fermented foods (sauerkraut, kimchee, etc) and drinks (kombucha, yogurts, kefir, etc)
     
     - Take probiotic supplements
     
     - Stay the fuck away from fake sugars. They're not healthy, they're not zero calorie, they're not "diet" anything. It's a scam.
