We've talked a lot about how sugar is really bad for your health and really bad for your weight, but did you know that there's a sweetener that can replace it? It tastes just as sweet as sugar, but it doesn't spike your blood sugar like sugar does, and it has zero calories. So if you use it as a substitute for sugar, you can get the same sweet taste, but you don't gain weight, so it's literally a dream substance. As you know, it's used in a lot of zero drinks these days, and it's also sold separately, so you can use it in cooking. But do these alternative sweeteners really deserve to be called a dream substance and are there any downsides? In this article, we've broken down the different types of sugar substitutes and summarized their characteristics. We've even taken a closer look at whether or not they're a good idea for your diet.
