#ad #TruviaPartner Episode 8 of foods people think are bad for them but actually aren’t: ERYTHRITOL! • As a dietitian, I’ve always supported the use of low-calorie sweeteners, which is why I’m excited to be partnering with @Truvia to debunk some commonly spread myths that have been circulating about erythritol. • Erythritol is a sugar alcohol that has about 70% of the sweetness of sugar, while providing zero calories per gram vs. 4 calories per gram in traditional sugar.

Let’s investigate! • If you want to take a closer look at the studies that I reviewed for this, the list of PMIDs can be found in the comments. • Learn more at the link in my bio!👆
