There is plenty of evidence that artificial sweeteners spike your insulin in the same way that sugars do[1], leading to adverse effects.

Are you sure that's what it says? It seems to talk a lot about psychological pavlovian responses, but I see this:

> Artificial sweeteners alone do not stimulate insulin or incretin release in vivo

> Unlike caloric sweeteners, artificial sweeteners do not augment insulin or incretin release in response to meals
