How about Monk Fruit sweetener, Doctor?

[@stephenseverin9911]

⁠Stephen severin : no comments on Monk fruit sweetener!

[@dusseau13]

Diagnosed T2 in 2000. I took antibiotics for a sinus, tooth infection for 2 weeks and my A1C dropped one full point. Gut bacteria needs massive research when it comes to diabetes.

[@wearelegion1163]

I'm a lifelong sugar addict & am really trying at 66 to avoid medications. Prediabetic & have IBS & some sugar replacements aggravate the IBS while sugar doesn't give me problems.

[@user-ml8dm9fz6l]

Pure stevia is amazing. Just a tiny bit needed to sweeten a cup of coffee, instead of 3 packets of sugar. Half sandwich bag worth might last one person 5 years or longer of daily coffee consumption

[@PraveenSrJ01]

I gave up all sodas 🥤 even in moderation and it drastically changed my life for the better!

[@user-ml8dm9fz6l]

what did you replace it with?

[@ms_cheeseandcrackers]

Thanks for explaining the research. Tip for everyone; try to eliminate sugar by creating a plan of action. I did it this way; first day my coffee and tea had to have regular sugar , next day half of the sugar from the day before, the third day half of the half until I eliminated sugar from my espresso and tea. Now I only use a little of Monk sugar in my coffee with half and half and that is only once a day.

[@SugarMDs]

Thanks for sharing!

THAT is up to you. He told you the facts if each. There is no objectively best option, because every human is different. If you want the best way to figure it out for you. Then get you a glucose tester, try a few and see how you personally react. Then choose the one you like best that doesn't spike your glucose, make you feel bad, upset your stomach, etc(most won't do any of those things to most people).

I am diabetic and tried using aspertame or the newer version neotame, but I found that it gave me migraine headaches. I did not get the same reaction with other sweeteners like sucralose, stevia,or monk fruit. I have been using sucralose for the most part but am switching over to a newer sweetener whuch is a combination of monk fruit, stevia, and ethrytol. It isn't as sweet as sucralose but has a good flavor. I am surprised you didn't cover monk fruit in your review.

[@YoshMyster]

I noticed that you didn't mention Monkfruit in your video. It's my favorite sweetener and has no effect on my blood sugar. Oh and that erythritol has a cooling almost numbing effect if used by itself.

[@porscheoscar]

I started getting recurring skin tags. A insulin resistance symptom. I'm am "rugby player" physical build. I have not eaten red meat in my adult life. I avoid processed meats, cheese and cereals and grains. I dont eat pork or deep fried foods. My downfall was I was consuming large amounts of zero calorie drinks. My father's gastroenterology team were extremely negative on consuming real sugar or corn syrup. So I blindly accepted any zero calorie artificial drink. Yet i waz gaining one or two pounds every year for 16 years. This past year after learning the significance of skin tags during these weight gain years I decided to start monitoring my blood sugar with a $30 finger stick kit. My morning or fasting blood sugar level was 80. I went out and ate 2 slices of pizza which I aproximated to be 90 grams of carbohydrates. I then too blood sugar reading one hour after. I was up to 125. I took more readings one hour apart for another 4 hours. I finally returned to my fasting blood sugar level of 80 after 3.5 hours. I calculated that 25-30 grams of carbohydrates was all I could clear by my pancreas per hour. So I set 50% of that 25-30 grams as my limit for any meal. This in my theory would allow me to return to 80 as quickly as possible after a meal. By the way for each blood sugar reading I had to do at least 4 sticks on different hands and fingers to come to a "more or less" number. So how did I actually change my diet? No more artificial sugars. STEVIA and erythritol only. No more wheat flour carbs. Everything would be made from almond and coconut flour withlots of physilium husk. And lots more plant based fats like avocado, nuts and organic nut butters. Must be organic peanut butter avoid Skippy, Jeiff, Peter Pan, at all cost. And I limited fruit to 2 serving a day so that I was getting minimum 100 vitamin C micrograms. This meant small gala apples, berries and yellow pepper. Result: I lost approximately 1.5 pounds per week every week until I lost all 30 pounds. The interesting thing was that I did no aerobic or weight lifting during this time nor did I eat more vegetables or chicken or fish or dairy. I lost weight more than ever dimpl7 by not eating more than 12 carbohydrates grams during a meal. No more than a spoon of rice, no more than a spoon dessert no more than cheese cracker size of bread. And lots of almond and coconut flour home made replacement of store bought bread. Coconut or almond flour pancakes, Flatbread, muffins and keto cheesecake and flan. I never felt hungry or had cravings. It's just a bit of time in the kitchen.

[@SugarMDs]

Thank you for sharing, God bless and keep safe always.

[@memnoch1974]

Doc. What about other alternate sweetener products in the market? Most are blends but key sweeteners are allulose and monk fruit extract? Info and claims are there no effects on insulin. Either of these can be found blended with erythritol as well.

[@singinggrass187]

Thank you, thank you, thank you! You are the “real deal” when it comes to honest and valuable medical advice! I appreciate that you explain things in easy-to-understand terms, so that I can make better choices in keeping my blood sugar levels in the normal range now, instead of where they were in the pre-diabetic range!

[@terrypurvis2535]

I love it when someone makes sense. I am one of the people that Splenda and other sweeteners do not raise my blood sugar. I wear a Free Style Libre, so I absolutely know. I was diagnosed with severe hypoglycemia at the age of nine. I have used artificial sweeteners all my life. It is miserable to have your blood sugar crash down to 35 and below. My husband is diabetic. Splenda raises his blood sugar. The study with some people being affected and others not makes perfect sense to me.

[@TheDisneylover23]

The Libre doesn't always work. Do a finger stick and see if it matches? A doctor friend said it was not accurate, so I tried it. It was off every time.

[@mariaippolito9366]

Dr I have been maintaining my sugar levels without reg meds mostly by natural products. But I was drinking the flavoured water that has aspartame. And now my sugar has gone crazy. I am running high numbers after drinking coffee with stevia

[@loonyTlu]

Aspartame is evil! I suffered from elevated inflammation (I have RA) and chronic digestive issues for almost two years until my GI doctor told me to stop all artificial sweeteners for a couple of weeks to see if was the culprit. As a diet soda addict this was a lot to ask, but I did it. The change was beyond dramatic! My CRP (inflammation) level dropped from 16+ down to 9, and the chronic diarrhea I suffered from stopped. Just stopped cold. Giving up the diet soda was really tough, but I make do with flavored seltzers and the occasional can of stevia-sweetened Zevia, which is a carbonated beverage with no artificial ingredients. I have also given up all other fake sweeteners, even though they cause less side effects. It is limiting but there are more and more naturally sweetened products in the stores if you search them out.

[@BlackyBrownDestruction9337]

It's not for phenylketonurics, it's on the label

[@lordgarion514]

No, it isn't evil. It's absolutely fine. The fact that *you* have something different about you that makes you sensitive, does not mean it's evil. It means you shouldn't use it. Nothing more. People have actually died from many hundreds of our foods. Do you think corn, wheat, tomatoes, etc are evil as well??? Try not to be too melodramatic.

[@imaxjunior6531]

I found out that artificial sweaters changed my personality, I became easily agitated and quick to become angry and those are NOT my personality at all. Stopped and in two days i was back to my happy easy going self. Never again.

[@happydays1336]

Just curious--do the seltzers have artificial flavors and colors? If so, the seltzers might not be very healthy. I don't drink them so I don't know. I'm glad you're feeling better.

[@loonyTlu]

@@happydays1336 Thanks for the good thoughts! Flavored seltzers have been a lifesaver for me. I just had an A1C test and it came back at 5.2, which is in the normal range! You do have to look on the ingredient list, as some are natural flavorings (citrus) and some aren’t. None of them have coloring added. The only thing to watch for is some brands add sodium. I’m in CT and there is a regional brand called Polar out of MA and they must have 25 flavors. There isn’t a lot of flavoring added so I don’t worry too much about it as I cut way back on the amount of carbonated drinks anyway. For the most part I now drink mostly home brewed iced teas of all varieties, both real teas and herbal, sweetened just a bit with stevia/monkfruit blend.

The sugar alcohols and yes erythritol too gives me diarrhea every time I tried monkfruit and finally had to throw it out because of side effects.

I am diabetic and I was in the store and saw Jelly Belly's sugar free jelly beans. I was excited and bought a small bag and that evening I ate 3 or 4 of them. I didn't eat more as I didn't like them. That night I started having loud gut sounds and towards morning I started having violent diarrhea. Later that day I was concerned that I had gotten C-Difficil again ( I had this five times) The next morning I went to my VA hospital for a C-Diff test and they took blood and feces samples. They came to me and told me I had to be admitted immediately as both of my kidneys had shut down and I was in renal failure and in danger of losing my kidneys. I spent almost a week there and I told the doc that I suspected the jelly beans as I had read a small warning (after I ate them) warning that they might cause severe diarrhea. They read up on Maltitol and agreed. I was discharged 5 days later and highly recommend against eating anything with Maltitol.
