Not to completely derail the thread, but erythritol is supposedly linked to increases in strokes and heart attacks. I don't know the validity of the studies. They could be legit or complete BS, but it was a hot topic about a year ago. I'm sure 777 or someone more knowledgeable will chime in on it. I'm personally working on avoiding artificial sweeteners (and sugar/sweets in general for Lent).

quote:

Why does it take away from net carbs? I guess it can't be digested?

"...your small intestine absorbs it quickly and gets it out of your body through urine within 24 hours. This means erythritol doesn't have a chance to "metabolize"—turn into energy in your body." From WebMD.

To further derail the thread, is monk fruit pretty much the safest artificial sweetener?

I can't eat/ drink foods with it. Causes some serious bloating/ distended stomach.

Hate the BS they put in everything.
