When you think about it, that is a hard list to eliminate for everyone. Even most bodybuilders use artificial sweeteners and Caffeine.

Very true.

I think sensitivity to items on that list is highly individual. For example, I can't tolerate a lot of caffeine, hydrogenated fats, or refined cereals but it takes a great deal of artificial sweetener before I notice a difference. I know others who are seemingly immune to caffeine.
