Of all the ingredients we use in our recipes, the one we’ve gotten the most questions about over the years is… erythritol.
Of course, when we started using this ingredient – nearly 15 years ago – the most common question was along the lines of… “What the heck is that sweetener with the funny name?”
Back then, most people had never heard of erythritol (pronounced: er-RITH-rit-ol).
And due to its “scientific” name, many assumed it must be un-natural.
The great news is that erythritol is perfectly natural. It’s found in many foods. And it’s even produced in your own body – so your body already “recognizes” it.
Today, erythritol is the sweetener of choice of a growing number of billion-dollar brands. And millions of people have consumed it safely for decades.
That’s why our sister company, Wellness Bakeries, set out to set the record straight on this safe and healthy, natural sweetener.
In today’s report, they share what the scientific studies actually say about erythritol (scroll down on the page for more than 30 references).
They also explain the true BENEFITS of this sweetener which provides all the sweetness of sugar… without the calories, the blood-sugar spike or the other health consequences of fructose, glucose and artificial (chemical) sweeteners.
