Concerns about artificial sweeteners and cancer initially arose when early studies linked the combination of cyclamate plus saccharin (and, to a lesser extent, cyclamate alone) with the development of bladder cancer in laboratory animals, particularly male rats.

No previous study has described the effects of chronic consumption of the cyclamate and saccharin combination on oxidative stress, lipid profile, glycemic control, creatinine, and alanine transaminase activity in healthy individuals and in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
1 sty 2000 · One case of early prostate cancer and two cases of benign tumors (thyroid adenoma and uterine leiomyoma) were found in the 100 mg/kg cyclamate group. Two cases of metastatic cancer (one colon carcinoma and one hepatocellular carcinoma) and one case of a leiomyoma were diagnosed in 24-year-old monkeys in the 500 mg/kg cyclamate group.
Epidemiological studies in humans did not find the bladder cancer-inducing effects of saccharin and cyclamate that had been reported from animal studies in rats. Despite some rather unscientific assumptions, there is no evidence that aspartame is carcinogenic.
Cyclamates. Sodium cyclamate is a potent sweetening agent. It has been subjected to numerous safety and carcinogenicity studies. Animal data led to warning against excessive and indiscriminate use a long time ago, causing the World Health Organization in 1967 to adopt a safety limit of 50 mg/kg.
27 lis 2017 · This leads to chronic hyperglycaemia (i.e. elevated plasma glucose levels) and disturbances of carbohydrate, fat, and protein metabolism. In the long term, this condition leads to complications such as retinopathy, nephropathy, neuropathy, and an increased risk for cardiovascular diseases.
Cyclamate is an artificial sweetener (code E952) with a high sweetening power; according to numerous studies, in some people it can lead to the formation of a substance (CHA) which, when given in significant doses in animal testing, resulted in testicular damage.
