Aside from the general artificial sweetener paranoia, is there any
serious question about ace k?  It's in the protein powder I use.  
The alternative would be stevia.

I don't know, but the brand I like to use offers either the
standard whey protein which uses ace k, or "natural" protein
sweetened with stevia.  To me, stevia is just a "natural"
artificial sweetener.  :-)

Yep, "natural" like tobacco, or deadly nightshade, or belladonna, or any
other "natural' poison

Since everyone with an agenda didn't bother to answer your question, YES
ace-k is just fine as an artificial sweetener for diabetics or normies.

IME I know a couple who have bad reactions to one another's favourite
sweeteners. I guess everyone has bad reactions to something. Apart
from that it seems to be mostly paranoia and bullshit. Personally I
prefer Splenda, but that's only because *I* prefer it.
