This study will investigate how some artificial sweeteners (AS) cross from blood to breastmilk in breastfeeding women after oral intake. Moreover, it will be investigated whether the kinetics of AS differ based on the women's body composition (BMI) and metabolic status (diabetes). This will be investigated through a clinical trial in which 60 women divided into three groups (normal weight, overweight and diabetic) will drink a beverage containing four AS. over a period of six hours the women will donate blood and breast milk samples in order to investigate the presence of AS.
