Sweeteners: What Works on the Better Off Protocol
D17 — Sweeteners: What Works on the Better Off Protocol
The sweetener aisle is confusing, the marketing is misleading, and some of what's in your cabinet right now may be working against you. Victoria breaks down exactly what she recommends, what she'd watch, and what she guides every patient away from — and why the blue packet is the one to put down permanently.
In this episode:
- Which sweeteners work on the Better Off protocol and why taste matters more than rankings
- Why too much of even the good ones causes GI problems
- The coffee grinder trick that fixes gritty stevia and monk fruit
- The emerging cardiovascular signal on erythritol and why she's watching it
- Why maltitol is hiding in your keto snacks and spiking your blood sugar
- Why aspartame causes weight gain — and why that's disqualifying all by itself
- How to read a Crystal Light label before you trust it
