This week we find out about the highly addictive ingredients that get put into just about every children's medicine. We find out how their addictiveness was discovered and take a dive into the studies that compared sugar, artificial sweeteners, and the power of sweet taste to cocaine. We find out how much more addictive they are, it may surprise you, and question the move from sugar to artificial sweeteners; that are just as addictive?
