All of that artificial anything is bad for everyone's health its been that way for years.. only one recommended by Dr Amen and Dr Axe who we trust is Stevia..but rarely use anything.
Pass it on we blocked Mayhem long ago over his C Hysteria
Saw yesterday where consumption of erythritol, which is the sugar alcohol found in many artificial sweetners, shows a link between it and an increased rate of heart attack and stroke.
This concerns me because I will usually go for the artificial sweetners to keep the calories down. We used Splenda for a while and then switched to Stevia because it is was supposedly more natural. Most Stevia products however also have erythritol.
There is a form of Stevia that is just Stevia extract with no erythritol. We switched to that a while ago because we tracked some gastric issues the Mrs has had for quite some time to the consumption of erythritol.
Of course more study is needed and it was mentioned that the cause of issues could be a result of erythritol in conjucntion with something else. Somehow I doubt that this surprises a lot of people.
