    Regardless of the methodology used for this study, I’ve switched to pure stevia now. I hate that a lot of stevia products actually use erythritol and just list it in small font.

      I’ve been swapping half of my sugar in my morning coffee with a few drops pure liquid monk fruit. No idea if that’s better or worse than erythritol.
