Sucralose

And so in case you find that on the back somewhere, exactly, you have one less E additive, but it's still the same thing inside as when E950 and E951 are on the back.

Another very well-known one is sucralose, that's E955.

It's also significantly sweeter than acesulfame K and aspartame.

It's 600 times as sweet as sugar.

Or there's another one that they use to sweeten.

Sucralose.

Stevia is a natural plant extract, which is really good.

So Stevia, like I keep in even on show day, like generally digest very well for people.

But Sucralose is an artificial sweetener.

yeah paying attention to those I think also like made a really big difference for me because again like I used to work at a supplement store back in the day and you'd be surprised when people come in and they're like okay like this protein powder is not agreeing with my gut you know what I mean and they'll all be okay like which ones you buy and they'll show it to me I'm like see I wouldn't put that in my mouth on my worst day you know what I mean so it's yeah I guess

Like, I love Mini Wheats.

And guess what? I just bought some Splenda brown sugar, so half the calories.

Oh my God, I'm eating through that so quickly.

And the Mini Wheats, too.

You are being reckless.

Right.

And that Splenda, that's 9.99 a bag.

Holy.

All those things tend to be low concentration of pesticides and herbicides, and so they're safer to get non-organic.

Now, here's something you probably think is a healthy choice, and that is artificial sweeteners, things like aspartame, acesulfame potassium, MSG, and sucralose, which we find in Splenda.

They make food taste amazing without adding salt or sugar, and they're marketed as being really healthy.

They're in diet drinks.

So try stopping sucralose now.

This isn't to be confused with sucrose.

It's Sucralose, so S-U-C-R-A-L-O-S-E.

And I want you to listen to my Sucralose podcast number 81 to learn more because simply cutting this out can make a tremendous difference in your health.

I have people telling me all the time that just cutting this changed so many things for them.

So instead, I encourage you to start using sugar alternatives like stevia or monk fruit or allulose.

So if you just can't do this currently without your sweetener, Keep using it.

But over the weeks, I would encourage you, like if you're using the Stevia drops or the Sucralose drops, try to use one less drop each week.

So if you're using five drops now, next week you're going to just do four drops.

And if you do, if you wean it down very gradually like that, I promise you, you will learn to like it with less sweetener.

So does anybody know how they're able to get away with that legally? There's a legal loophole that they can say sugar free, zero calorie, but it's got literal sugar in it.

Same goes for Splenda.

If you turn your little yellow or blue pack over and read the ingredients, if it says maltodextrose or dextrose, it has literal sugar inside of the little blue or yellow packet.

That's the same thing they're doing with this keto thing.

I'd say maybe every couple of weeks or once a month or something, then you have a little tuna.

Number four is diet soda and the biggest questions people have all the time is is it compatible with keto is it all right does it spike insulin will it break a fast and the answer is that it works for keto it doesn't spike insulin at least not much in most people it doesn't really break a fast but those are irrelevant questions because this is not food any more than you would eat paint chips with lead in them you do not want to touch this stuff aspartame is one of the more popular artificial sweeteners and it breaks down into formaldehyde which is embalming fluid and and ethanol that's wood alcohol the stuff that makes you go blind and the list of complaints about aspartame is endless but they have a hard time pinning anything specific on it so it's still out there the other popular artificial sweetener is called sucralose also known as Splenda and and when they marketed this and promoted it they had learned that people didn't like artificial things so they spent a lot of time and energy promoting sucralose as something natural they said it's as natural as carbohydrate and sea salt because sodium chloride is sea salt and carbon is in every living thing but what they lied about what they implied that is not true is that these things go together and they don't in sucralose they force them together into a covalent bond which is a strong bond and these two things when you put them together in that kind of bond they become pesticides and that's how they discovered sucralose is that they were trying to develop a pesticide when they found that it tasted sweet so things like DDT and aldrin and dieldrin and the list goes on and on this is just a partial list what do these things have in common they are chlorocarbons or also known as organochlorides and they have been proven to be so toxic that they were banned years or decades ago but they're so pervasive in the environment that even 50 60 years after the ban they are still detectable number five on the list is potato chips and the most common objection that you hear is that they're high in salt and high in fat I don't have a problem with that but we'll talk more and therefore of course they're high in calories something curious though is that it basically produces a bottomless craving there's only so much fat you can eat there's only so much bacon or so much meat or so much steak but there is no limit to how much potato chips you can eat it just keeps going and going if the bag is open then it's going to get finished So that sort of gives you a hint that this acts more like a drug than a food.

And it's not the amount of fat that's the problem with chips.

It's the type of fat.
