You keep repeating yourself every time someone mentions protein powders but you don't even know what people's diet and fitness goals are.

The suggestion to add protein powder into ones diet or smoothies is good advice for a lot of people depending what their goals are.
Chances are people who are trying to eat healthier want to lose weight. And that's exactly my point, we don't know people's goals so why prescribe protein powder?

Umm... obviously. Eating stuff decreases appetite...

15%-20% of sucralose, the most common and "safest" artificial sweetener is digested by the body, and we don't know where it goes.

There is quite a lot of artificial sweetener in almost every protein powder. And that's something you take every day.
