Story summary
  • New research from the University of Pittsburgh uncovers a troubling link between sucralose, a popular artificial sweetener, and weakened immunotherapy in cancer patients. By disrupting gut microbiomes and depleting vital amino acids like arginine, sucralose may accelerate cancer progression. However, supplementing with citrulline could offer a glimmer of hope in combating these adverse effects.
