This review is about the interaction sweeteners in the intestinal microbiota. The general objective of this work is to understand the consequences of the use of sweeteners in the intestinal microbiota. We searched for scientific articles using the following search terms: non-caloric sweetener; saccharin and microbiota; microbiota and sweeteners; non-caloric sweetener and microbiota; gut microbiota; sweetener. The only exclusion factor would be the studies that were bibliographic reviews. Three of the articles reviewed show an increase in the proportions of the Firmicutes phylum and decrease in Bacteroides, which are related to the development of obesity and that in these studies induced obesity, insulin resistance and hypercholesterolemia. There was also a significant increase in the bacterium Lactobacillaceae (2.1 times), which is beneficial to the intestinal microbiota. It was found that there was some type of study there was increase of body and fecal weight, however one of the studies shows that there wasn’t change in weight. It is concluded from the data presented, that the consumption of sweeteners interacts directly and indirectly in the intestinal microbiota. However, it’s suggested that new studies are needed to evaluate the role sweeteners and changes in the intestinal microbiota. This is particularly important given the increasing consumption of sweeteners.
