Note: Sugar substitutes in the form of artificial sweeteners or natural non-nutritive sweeteners (Stevia, Truvia, monk fruit, and sugar alcohols including erythritol) are fine to use in moderation. There is no sound evidence to suggest that having erythritol in our diets is more harmful than having an excess of sugar in our diets.
