Your body reacts to the sweetness and produces insulin, which when not paired with actual sugars, turns into fat. This is known as "Insulin Resistance" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insulin_resistance)

Honestly curious here, why is stevia excluded from the list in the article? It would seem to fall under the same process and cause equal amount of harm? Or is it the naturalistic fallacy at work?

It's a lot easier for some people to avoid what they think are everything processed than some processed things.
In reality, they're surely still eating processed things, but they THINK they aren't, and placebo is all it takes sometimes.

Actually, the reason is that aspartame has a high glycemic index, so your body reacts to it roughly the same way it reacts to sugar.

Saccharin had one study that showed a correlation, however, several other studies did not.
However, protein does: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1946186
