Common Sweetener May Harm Critical Brain Barrier, Risking Stroke​


Found in everything from protein bars to energy drinks, erythritol has long been considered a safe alternative to sugar.

But research suggests this widely used sweetener may be quietly undermining one of the body's most crucial protective barriers – with potentially serious consequences for heart health and stroke risk.

A study from the University of Colorado suggests erythritol may damage cells in the blood-brain barrier, the brain's security system that keeps out harmful substances while letting in nutrients.

I have never had anything on that list.
Can't say the same. However, can count on only two hands the number of times....

Sugar substitutes are poison.

Every day, dozens buy multiple cans of everything on the list every morning on their way to work.

Some I try to steer to plain coffee, but they turn up their noses and now spend $8-12 every morning on Monster Ultra, number one on the list.

One, maybe two days a week, I don't charge some for just refilling their coffee mugs. My personal thanks, but don't tell the manager!

Doing my best to to get people to avoid this poison.
