I’ll wait.........................
Correlation does not imply Causation.
Perhaps the fact that the people who use Erithrytol tend to have existing health issues in the first place, is the reason for these findings.
Healthy people tend not to go on special diets, they go on special diets to help with an existing issue.
Everybody who has ever drank Dihydrogen Monoxide has died, or will die.
We need to ban Dihydrogen Monoxide!
I don’t know what the big deal is about REAL NATURAL SUGAR.
It’s only about 16 calories per teaspoon.
When I was a kid, back in the 60’s, there were ‘cyclamates’ that were used for sweetening. Diet drinks actually tasted good, with no aftertaste. Pre-sweetened Kool-Aid packets were 10 cents. ......................
Hubby is a diabetic.
I cook from scratch to avoid added sugars.
And we usually drink unsweetened teas or seltzers.
If do I need to use a sweetener when cooking, it’s usually pure honey.
I put honey in my, tea, too, on occasion.
Me too................
That's why I avoid it at all times....................
Maybe they should stop with feeding mice so much.
I just discovered Fanta Zero orange soda. Tastes better then Sunkist Orange Zero. Both contain aspartame. May explain my ah my ah hmm... I forgot.

That means, for an average 150-pound individual, an acceptable amount of aspartame is approximately 3,400 milligrams per day,” said Dr. Sweeney, “which is equal to more than 17 cans of diet soda or 97 packets of tabletop sweetener.
______________________________
I do not drink 17 cans a day of anything!
Maybe 3 or 4 at most mixed with a glass or two of water and then cut back on the soda for a day or two.
Now if I stop drinking soda maybe I will feel a lot better and stop the late night visits to the bathroom...!
Pure stevia has no erythritol in it. It’s an herb. But thank you for the info.
