One thing he forgot to mention is that eating fruit sugar is processed by a different pathway as other sugars and fructose (fruit sugar) is processed directly by the liver and more readily converted to fat. I have changed my diet to use monk fruit, stevia and erythritol and I have lost 40 pounds and fixed my type 2 diabetes. Studies linking weight gain to the use of these items don't have much credibility with me when compared with my experience.

He didn't mention anything about insulin respones. They don't spike your insulin. Which is why these sweeteners are good for weight loss.

WRONG! These don't count as ARTIFICIAL sweeteners... these are low-calorie NATURAL sweeteners extracted from natural source. But the question really should be... is monkfruit/erythritol/stevia better than regular sugar? EVERYBODY knows sugars don't have any NUTRITIONAL value (except maybe for monkfruit which has antioxidant properties from mogrosides).... so don't compare it to a real fruit. We are not gonna squeeze a fruit in our coffee.The point of the low-calorie sweeteners is as substitute to high calorie regular sugar. Focus on why it's a better option...if it is. If it's not, explain why. This video is really useless coming from a doctor.

The problem with these types of things is that artificial sweeteners probably aren't good for you...but they are much less bad for you than what you could be guzzling in high corn fructose syrup and empty calories, etc. If people give up high fructose added sugar goods by eating a few tablespoons of any artificial sweetener it is probably the right choice for them.

Don’t give a flip about calories. I don’t care if it lacks nutrition. I care about what it does to my blood sugar and how my body processes it. Does my liver consider it a toxin? You know, that sort of thing.

Hi doctor which system you are using as it appears on the screen whatever you draw on the tablet?.. looks pretty cool.

I think the take away from this video is that if someone truly wants to get healthy, they probably need to limit sweeteners, whether "artificial" or "natural". And most people don't like that idea. Because a lot of folks (like myself) got heavy over many years by eating sweet things. I would have liked at least a reference about the safety of artificial sweeteners. Because there is no EVIDENCE that they are not safe. And the weight gain, doesn't come from consuming them. Weight gain comes from potentially eating other foods that do have calories that you may crave after consuming the artificial sweeteners.

Can you give any evidence for what you're stating? Any studies? Any links? Thanks

I am a sugarholic. I only use monk fruit and stevia and a bit of erythritol. The problem is I start having more and more.... and my cravimgs for a sweet taste and carbs increases more and more. So what I have to do is go cold turkey on anything sweet at all for a few days and then start back very slowly. I have to do this every several months. So no, they are not the greatest thing but I think genetically it is extremely difficult for some of us to give up sweetness.

If anything, get rid of the Erythritol as sugar sub.. and stick with stevia and monk fruit as they are actually the best sugar alternative cause they don’t affect the brain, they have lower GI, dont cause insulin resistance, etc. But ofcourse, care and moderation is key.

The research simply says that if you eat alot of sugar substitutes then you will get used to sweets. Then, when presented with sweets you'll tend to overeat them. If, however, you plan your carb intake, then none of this will apply to you, and there's no downside to sugar substitutes.

Hold on to that proof that you did it once, because you can (AND WILL) do it again!! 💪🏼👏🏼 I am certain that it is dysbiosis that causes disease and weight gain. The effects of aspartame are already well known. I suspect we will see the same effects across any CHEMICALLY REFINED sweetener because of the chemicals that are added. They can disrupt the biome and COULD cause a dysbiosis. I was on Keto for 8 months and then started having insomnia. Going strict carnivore for a few months helped, and now I think I've isolated it to be the zero-carb sweeteners. I was having a lot of Keto treats at that time and was using Truvia and then Swerve (erythritol) . (I cannot speak directly to monk fruit.) This is not to say that Stevia in its raw leaf form would cause the same issues as a product like Truvia. (Of course unless it was not organic raw stevia, then it's still risking the same problem because it still has chemicals.) Again it's the refining process with chemicals that worries me. So if you're worried about leveraging zero-carb sweeteners to help as you clean up again this is what I would say: start with where you're at. Focus on coming off refined sugar with these products if you need an intermediate step. If you can keep using them without seeing adverse effects, great. But if you develop insomnia or other things like I did, don't assume these refined zero carb sweeteners are as completely innocent as we're led to believe. Their time to be swapped out may too come. Keep at it, you're gonna do great! This may be tough, but so are you! What else do you specifically feel you need help with?

Twice I bought a product that contained stevia plus erythritol. I had terrible gastrointestinal pain and diarrhoea. I googled it and found out the erythritol was to blame.Will never have it again.

I commented on a previous video about this - but I am a super taster, I have the gene that means I taste bitterness much more strongly than other people. Water is bitter to me - until I began researching my own genes with the genographic study almost 20 years ago now. I can live without sugar, but if I don’t have some sweetness (and more than most people would need in my drinks) I will avoid water based beverages. We are all so different, so the recommendation to avoid artificial sweeteners as a general statement ignores that there are people like me where the taste issues are a very real obstacle. Note that I was quite heavy while avoiding artificial sweeteners (saccharin is extremely bitter for me) and was able to achieve a 100 lb weight loss using Splenda. I will need some middle ground and feel sure among the obese population the percentage of super tasters is greater than in other segments (would be a great study if not done)

You are presenting this information as science and use terms like ´confuses our body?´ What do you mean by that? It is nothing but a metaphor. Please, I´m not in the market for storytelling here, I want to understand how this works. Please describe the mechanism. My body is not confused, never has been. But my mind sure is.

Your body is like a machine it says OK this is the system we need to run and then it runs that system it won’t stop in the middle of the system to change the system so your taste buds are telling your brain run the system so your brain runs the system and encourages fat production because sugar makes you gain weight so what he’s saying is that you are gaining weight because of a system that your brain is running not because of what you’re consuming. You are tricking your system is what he saying. This is actually what I have been wondering about.

This is exactly why Americans are so fat cause everyone is uniformed about artificial sweeteners, go to Europe and you will see very little artificial sweeteners, and guess what there’s a lot less fat people in Europe

Data?

So by this logic flour is bad?

That’s pretty awesome the bit about fruit and our metabolism. I gotta say I subscribe to this wonderful woman who makes easy to make sweet treats she uses Monk fruit in some things. So are we concluding that it’s still had even tho it has no calories just for the simple fact it doesn’t come a lot with any nutrition? What if it’s made into a protein cake or something?

The porridge and the fruit might tho!

I will continue to follow you and I think It would have been best to tell us if any of these sweeteners are safe. People that are diabetic need to know if these sweeteners you are talking about can cause cancer

No disrespect, but at around 2:20 you said of the the erythritol "the alcohol prevents it from being absorbed" then (again) "the alcohol prevents it from being absorbed in our G.I. tract", THEN you said "it is actually about 90% absorbed", which is it?

Which is why some non-caloric, non blood spiking sweeteners are allowed on a keto diet, and others aren't.

I used Basmati rice, and monk fruit sweetener and my blood sugar is always below 100.

The only artificial sweeteners I regularly use is stevia drops in a smoothie. Since the smoothie already contains vitamins and calories from the fruit and vegetables, does that make the stevia ok?

Sorry this is kinda wrong I started to use stevia when my doctor told me I was pre-diabetic and all that I did was loose weight..

If I grow stevia and dry it my self then Can I use it in my tea and coffee?? Is that a better option?

If u use stevia, find a pure product without fillers like maltodextrin! Pyure is a great brand, I find it at Walmart for a good price👍

Thank u so much. Tht was really helpful. god bless you

*Pls look into FRUCTOSE. It may not spike blood sugar levels like other types of sugar, but it does lead to diabetes, insulin resistance / pre-diabetes, NAFLD & metabolic disease.* *Every cell in the body can use glucose, but the liver has to convert most or all of the fructose you consume to glucose as the other cells can't do this - and this places a HUGE demand on the liver.* *Food that contain fructose includes: HFCS (high fructose corn syrup) Agave Nectar, table sugar, honey, fruit juice, fruit obviously & more.* *Pls note that Agave nectar is no longer recommended for diabetics or as healthy alternative to sugar.*

Got off sugar 3 yrs ago. Stevia is my primary sweetener, erythritol & monk fruit are secondary. At 41 yrs old I’m leaner than I’ve ever been at 9-11% body fat. These sweeteners don’t confuse the body, our metabolism does get jacked up by eating excess sugar. And even healthy foods are turned bad in combination w/ sugary foods. Site your research doc. Please, enlighten us.

Erythritol makes me so sick!!! An Endocrinologyst told me that erythritol makes fluids gather and stay in the stomach for ages. It stopped my stomach emptying and caused me to have projectile vomiting. I’m fine with stevia and birch xylitol though. But omg not erythritol. 🤮 Plus I don’t like corn anyway.

zay zay He briefly mentioned Every sweetener that is in the question as he pointed out how the sweetener is refined it’s witch is an answer to the people who claim that The sweeteners that he mentioned is natural and to make it clear to those people who believe in natural=healthy which is false. Secondly He points out the relation between the natural and the byproduct in which he made a good example that if chewed maybe let’s say three sugarcanes it is not equal to 3 teaspoon, three do you spoon so much more! therefore technically speaking if sugar canes are not healthy sugar is worse. Thirdly he Mention that in the long run people who consume artificial sweeteners tend to be heavier the reasoning Is there body make a connection between sweet and low nutritious food which is bad for the regulation of the body it sends confusing signals. Then finally he talks about fruit and how Sweet and healthy it is for the body it’s not confusing and does not make false connections between Low nutrition and sugar. It’s pretty clear.

I drink one cup of coffee a day with 3 teaspoons of monkfruit. Eat and apple in the morning. Along with triphala, manjishta, and ashwagandha. 20 minutes later I take a fulvic supplement and workout. I'm 5'10 165lbs. What feeds yeast in the body more, monk fruit or sugar? What feeds cancers more? Which one is worse for you in small amounts? Which one is best for fasting? I ask about monk fruit because it seems to be the lesser of the evils...although I read that the flavinoids in monk fruit are whats extracted and contain the antioxidants when refined at low heat. I look at all sciences behind products before I consume them. And I have yet to see a over weight person consuming monkfruit.

Didn't get an answer. I guess I'm just slow😬

Pretty much the only point I got out of this is if it's "Processed" NO ...... Type 2 Diabetic been using a blend of Splenda & Stevia I like both but like the mix call me weird.... and my levels have been great and I have not gained weight nor lost I am using them for my numbers for my Diabetes

Honestly, I just want to know what sweetener is not bad for me and doesnt cause inflammation! I generally use honey but I'm trying to learn about the other sweeteners. I dont care about the calorie count at all.
