Erythritol is a "sugar replacement" that was hailed as a health revolution for its sweetness with zero-calories. However studies now indicate this "healthy alternative" is linked to blood clotting, stroke, heart attack and death. What's even more concerning is this: as Erythritol was marketed as a healthy sugar replacement, it's often added in bulk to stevia, monk fruit, and keto-reduced sugar products. Often times, this is not listed in the nutrition label. So naturally, scientists are sounding the alarm. To learn more, we brought this to our co-founder, Sarah Koszyk, a registered dietitian and board certified nutritionist, to give her expert insight.
