With all of the new non-caloric sweeteners coming to market like monkfruit and allulose, has our position changed? Are we still a hard no on non-caloric sweeteners? When something sounds too good to be true, it usually is…spoiler alert: we still hate non-caloric sweeteners and recommend against their use! Tune in to learn why!
In this episode, we unpack new research on the impacts of non-caloric sweeteners. From their impact on insulin secretion to the way they can wreak havoc on the microbiome to how they can trick the palate and actually cause weight gain, we tell you the whole truth about these substances and why they have no business in your body! Plus learn how our keto approach allows for use of real food sweeteners and hear why using a banana or raw honey in a recipe might not kick you out of ketosis!
