I've been keto for three years. But I was abusing stevia. I was taking huge amounts of the white powdered extract in my coffee and smoothies which I drank multiple mugs every day. After a year of keto, I began to experience peripheral neuropathy (toe tips and fingertips). It was progressively worsening, and I began to feel shooting pains from my toes up through my legs. My doctor was useless and after determining I did not have diabetes or any other condition, he wanted to prescribe some medication to relieve symptoms. I didn't want painkillers so I made systematic efforts to try and understand my condition. It took me quite a long time, using trial and error, to figure out what was going on. By process of elimination, I determined it was the stevia causing the problem. After completely eliminating stevia from my diet, I noticed a lessening of pain within 2 or 3 days. So I decided to stay off it for a longer period. Within another week I was feeling significantly better. And after 2 months all my neuropathy symptoms completely resolved. It's now been 8 months and I am still symptom-free. Had I used recommended quantities, I'm sure stevia would not have bothered me. But I hope someone does some study about over-use and whether there is some caution to the peripheral nervous system. If so, the public should be more strongly warned.

Warned by what? Doctors diagnose a problem, not you. I can say pasta is causing my anxiety disorder, that however is not supported by anything. Stevia is very much safe. The only side effect is bloating or digestive issues if used in high quantities. Peripheral neuropathy is just out of the question. Stevia is just a plant and used by mankind for millennia before it became commercially viable. You should be careful to choose natural products as well. You must get checked by a doctor because I'm pretty sure it's not Stevia causing your issue. Stop calling all doctors useless. Most doctors know more than you do about everything. You should also take your doctor's advice regarding Keto. That diet is not for everyone and it can cause many damages, like it did in my case. Stop listening even to these youtube "doctors" who tell people really dangerous things, not supported by any peer-reviewed science.

@@rabenklang7 Sure. My weight dropped immensely from Keto. I had a very normal weight, but I lost 6 kg in two weeks and that made me underweight. Keep in mind that I went with a Keto diet to help me gain weight, ironically enough. I looked like crap and had no strength whatsoever. For overweight people, I guess that's a good thing, but I do not advise it for anyone else. My ketones in urine were raised to the roof. I guess that means you're in a state of ketosis, but my doctors were really concerned when they saw how high they were. My amylase in blood and urine was high as well. It took me more than a year to get back to being healthy again. I still use sweeteners though and limit my added sugar intake to no more than 30 g per day (the recommended dose is no more than 36 g per day for males), but that's because I have a candida overgrowth problem, not because of diet. I've also completely cut processed foods and I still do a 16/8 intermittent fasting every day and a 24h one once a week, because I found out it helped with my GERD. Other than that I do eat everything, including complex carbs which are forbidden in Keto, but personally I think they are really important for our body. My issue is that these "doctors" advise it for everyone and it is clearly not for everyone. Underweight people should not even think about starting a Keto diet for e.g but as you said everyone's experience is different.

One thing I wish you had addressed is maltodextrin. While not sold as a sweetener it is used as a bulking agent for many sweeteners. Especially the super sweet ones like stevia and monk fruit. The problem with it is that even though it is not a sugar (it is a partially digested starch) it can have twice the effect as table sugar on insulin response. This is of consequence to those of us that are diabetic. Here you are thinking you are making a better choice and the sweetener is stealth mode more damaging than sugar from a filler ingredient.

The best thing I ever did when starting my keto diet was take the time to remove as much sugar as possible out of my diet. No added sugar to anything, no products unless they have no added sugar and minimal naturally-occuring amounts . At the time, I disliked just about every sweetener substitute. In the end, no sweeteners at all for a long time. I finally found Allulose, which is a 'rare' sugar that does not impact blood glucose. However. While it occurs naturally in small quantities ("rare"), it is manufactured from fructose. I can use it in a very limited amount, but I've found that retaining my no-sweetener dietary policy is the best for my health. It's my sweetener of choice, because I could use it if necessary, for instance in baked goods, but I find I don't really desire sweet foods at all anymore. But I did go through a period of using the Allulose and my "sweet tooth" started coming back. I'll take my good health over unnecessarily sweet foods any day.

@maribelecheverria1330 Жыл бұрын

You're right. If you can avoid any sugar or artificial ones for 21days, your body will understand the change and you won't need to use sugar anymore. Use the keto sugar just for small desserts once or twice a month, that's what I do and helps me to stay healthy and in ketosis.

I've been consuming Sucralose on a regular basis for 6 years now, and only because my physician told me once that Sucralose was the best sweetener on the market, and that I should definitely go for it. After watching this video, I realized that sometimes even our trusted doctors don't really know what they are talking about.

I have been doing keto for 10 months and have seen huge positive changes in my health. I have also found that when I eat anything sweet, I want more and more sweet. It is better for me to simply avoid all...except for occasional berries. This from someone who used to hide candy in desk, purse, coat pockets....and on and on.

Totally agree. I tried to reintroduce some sweet stuff (with sweeteners) into my diet after 1.5 years away from it and it started unfolding into a disaster - cravings all over the place, obsessive thinking about something delicious. So it’s time to stop it and get back to my basic boring diet of meat and eggs, maybe some cream in coffee. You used to be fat for a reason. Do not forget it.

It's hard to find a good dark chocolate that does not contain either sugar or erythritol. Before I started keto when I was a sugar addict I hated the taste of super dark chocolate like 60%+ cocoa but now when I eat 90% cocoa with only about 2g of sugar it tastes sweet to me. It's amazing how sugar changes the brain's definition of sweet. Once you realize you were brainwashed by sugar you don't want to ever go back!

I use Erythritol and it's honestly so interesting to see what it does or rather the lack of what it does within my body. Every site I visited only showed the benefits of it, that it's very diabetic friendly and good for the teeth but they never went in-depth like you did! So thank you very much!

I would think that no one could really argue with you ... but I know better than to think that. People will always argue on these topics From a culinary point of view rather than health: Allulose is better for ice cream because it doesn't turn as rock-hard when frozen. So assuming you aren't eating the whole thing and want to freeze some, allulose is better.

Comparisons of the sweeteners and great explanations of the benefits and downsides of each product - thank you! Most people that are overweight have issues with blood sugar/insulin and the “low-carb-diet” will help with that. Our food is full of sugar and we are used to the taste. I never liked saccharine or aspartame. It tastes like what it is - chemicals. I get stomach cramps, when I consume it by accident. Stevia tastes bitter to me. I like xylitol and usually mix it with a bit of erythrith. I will give Inulin a try!
