I agree. Just clarifying because the title seems to imply DNA for humans ingesting it. Which is what I though when I read the headline.

If sucralose was found the be mutagenic, as the title kind of implies (at least to me), it would be immediately banned in the EU, and eventually the states.

Lots of things harm gut bacteria.

I agree. I originally assumed the same regarding DNA damage based on the title.
