Hi potato,

I too wanted to check the theory so I got myself a blood glucose monitor that diabetics use. For me, the reaction seemed to be primarily in my head. I would sometimes get the same rush and the same compulsive reaction. One bite would not be enough and I would want more and more and more. I'm talking about artificial sweeteners only, not sugar alcohols.

There's a great article in Dana Carpenders Hold the Toast about using a glucometer. Here it is:

If you do it, I would be interested in your results.
