diet soda just one of the many products using artificial sweeteners. when it comes to artificial sweeteners, there are tons of options. from some that have been on the market for decades to newer ones that claim to be more natural. many turned to these sugar substitutes to try and help keep their weight in check. like 44-year-old christine arundel, she goes for the fake stuff about five times a week. a habit for the best 30 years. >> it's a personal choice of not drinking my calories but rather wanting to eat them instead of putting them in my drink. >> reporter: but, are they really the secret to slim? while some experts say yes, others say no. >> when you consume artificial sweeteners, they trick your body to think sugar is on the way. that gears your body up to store the food. it creates insulin, which leads to fat storage. it stimulates your hunger and appetite. it slows your metabolism and it

differences. you're an athlete. we made a little competition here for you. when you compare the profiles, there are some differences. let's take best for gut health, because we're talking a lot about the gut. if you compare these four different type of sweeteners, honey performs the best. okay, but they all have different profiles. if you go to something like glycemic control, you'll find monk fruit, gives you less of those sugar spikes. if you're only looking for calories because you're really trying to cut weight and really concerned with the cal looric intake, artificial sweeteners are okay. they are low cal. the dentists hate the sugar because they're bad for our teeth. >> how about sugar in the raw? that's what i use. >> it does the same thing. world health organization, read those labels. 37 grams a day for men. 27 of grams a day max for women.

how have you -- what can you say to people who are in a difficult situation? >> well, for me, it was the opposite. music is what i did the rest of the time. i realized that i just finally took a few months off or more, and you know spent a lot of time with my parents, even, talking, getting their advice. i grew up thinking i knew what i was doing. when you have some tough times you call on your parents and your grandfather for advice. i spent so much time with my son and that made me realize what's important. >> good for you. robin, thank you for sitting down and talking with us. you're going to sing for us, right? >> yes. >> "back together" is what robin's going to sing. but now, a final check of the weather with ginger. >> we're having a good time out here. susan's 70. one of lara's old sorority sisters is here. she says hi. let's talk about the weather forecast. 65 severe storm reports. this picture and video out of connecticut.

now to an abc news exclusive. a louisiana man claiming his ex-girlfriend conceived their child without his permission. the case is in court right now and abc's linsey davis explains how this could happen. >> reporter: this morning, a louisiana man is taking a texas fertility center and his ex-girlfriend to court, claiming the clinic illegally handed over his dna samples to her which he she then used to have his child. >> it's beyond belief. it's something that you don't read or see in a movie. >> reporter: in 2002, he signed a contract with his then-girlfriend katherine leblanc. to preserve eight vials of sperm before having a vasectomy. >> it basically stated if our relationship were to end or if he were to die, that the sperm would go to me. >> reporter: when they broke up four years later, he began dating this woman. >> the relationship was very

rocky, it was on and off. quite a bit. very volatile. >> reporter: according to hardin's lawsuit, after their relationship ended, she obtained two of her ex-boyfriend's samples at the sperm bank where they were being held without his -- leblanc's consent. >> first, you think it's impossible. this is some kind of joke. >> reporter: now hardin and leblanc are suing the fertility center for breach of contract and also suing devall saying she had no rights to the sperm. >> more security checks in place for me going and buying alcohol at a gas station than there were for her to seize a man's dna. >> reporter: in opening statements tuesday, her attorney argued that hardin went with his client to a houston fertility specialist telling he wanted to use his dna samples to get devall pregnant.

never notified the clinic later that he didn't want her to have his sperm. their son is now 5 years old. he never met him. >> one day we're going to run into each other and what do we say? do i recognize him? does he recognize me? >> reporter: for "good morning america," linsey davis, abc news, new york. i'm here with the multitalented actress greta gerwig, she co-wrote and stars in the new film "mistress america." about a lonely college freshman whose life is turned upside-down. take a look. >> tracey. welcome to the great white way. ♪ >> times square is so crazy. >> isn't it? >> i don't know anyone who lives here. >> yours truly. i thought this was the cool place to live. >> anyone who lives in new york

uptown square yuppie who's dragged into the underworld of a possibly dangerous woman. what happened to that woman in movies? why don't we see her anymore. we thought it would do it with two girls. >> there are a lot of laughs and a lot of heart. >> it's funny and it also hopes, i hopes it makes people laugh and cry. >> and something interesting about you, you're not on social media, and it's all about girl power for you. >> yes, it's true. because, for me, i feel like there's such an inundation, what is she wearing? and i don't like this. why did she say that? i don't need to read it. i think it's awesome. but i just feel like there's so much negative that i stay away. >> i love hearing that. that's really incredible. and by the way, speaking of incredible, you're featured in the september issue of "glamour" magazine. you can see how fashionable you are.

you share some of your dos and don'ts with the magazine. i love this, celebrate every chance you get. >> yes, i feel i'm so lucky to do what i do. i feel there are so many times when people treat it like a business. man, if there are some speakers and a bar, let's start a dance party right now. why are we pretending this is work? >> you have a lot to celebrate. greta, thank you so much. it's great movie.
