      Another good video.
      Bobby Please be aware that the two sugar substitutes that you recommend do have erythritol in them. As you know they are a sugar alcohol and can cause GI issues with some people.
      Do you recommend or know any pure monk fruit brands that have no other ingredients?
      Once again you're doing a great job!

      Thanks for a great video. Just pointing out that your favorite monk fruit sweeteners are mostly erythritol. I recommend liquid stevia and monk fruit sweeteners for Keto friendly. Alot of baking recepies do well with erythritol. Also xylitol is toxic to dogs, so watch out for that. If Fido grabs a cookie that was made with Xylitol it could be very harmful. Thanks again. Love the channel.

    Thank you very much. I am new subscriber. I was using truvia and stevia, but I hate them due to the artificial sweet smell of them. It become very difficult for me to stick to them, because when I add them to tea and coffee, they change the flavor of it. Then I found your video describing about Lakanto monk fruit sweetner, which tastes similar like sugar, no bad falvour. Your videos are so helpful, they changed my outlook towards choosing right groceries. All the best for your future videos.

    In the end for all those people who are confused I would suggest to research on your own any product even those that Bobby recommends because it might work for him but it can be bad for you and what I found out that Erythritol most of a time is made from fermented GMO cornstarch. Used in bigger quantities like we use for baking is bad for your gut especially for kids. So when you bake cookies hide them like you would hide medicine if not? My 17 year old was eating cookies for couple days I baked on Monk fruit and Erythritol he got dehydrated from diarrhea. Lesson learned!

    I have just watched from a serious source a documentary about the "Stevia Scam" in all sweeteners world wide. They claim made from Stevia, but the stevia content is ridiculous low. Most content are made of fillers than are not so healthy. That is the high potency of stevia as a sweetener. The issue here are the fillers the industry use to pack the stevia. I am wondering if it's not the same situation with Monk sweetener. Coconut and Date sweeteners seems to be best choice. Thanks Mr. Parrish

  • @consuelonewman271

    Bobby, I just read your recipe for Key Lime Pie, and I noticed that it includes one cup of maple sugar and 2/3rds of a cup of coconut sugar, which still has 4g of sugar per teaspoon, like all other sugars do, so I'm glad to hear that I can replace these with other sweeteners. Eric Berg, a chiropractor who explains the science inside many of these issues, has a short U-tube video on sugars, where I add here to your list: Just Like Sugar, and Fiber Yum, which causes no stomach problems like many other sweeteners do, and can be used on a one to one ratio in baking.

    • @Jesusbride515
      @Jesusbride515 16 днів тому +1

      Hi there. I think someone said somewhere on Reddit that erythritol by itself doesn’t taste good or you can taste the cooling effect, but when it is combined with the monk fruit extract, it is better. I don’t think I’ve ever had erythritol by itself before, but I do use Erythritol with monk fruit. Hope this helps somewhat. I believe they combine it with monk fruit because erythritol by itself is 70% as sweet as sugar, but since monk fruit is 200 to 300 times sweeter than sugar itself, they combine it to make a one to one replacement.

    Hey Bobby! First and foremost, CONGRATULATIONS!!!! To the additional member to your family. I have seen your video sharing your journey to get pregnant. It wasn't easy and a lot happen in between. I have been following your videos and delicious recipes. My fiance and I has been shedding weights for the pass 4 months since we started, and we are very grateful for the great improvements that we both have. However, I have reached my goal or weight class ideal for me and now I can't stop losing more if I want to...Do you have any suggestions what I should do to maintain it and not lose anymore weight? Thank you so much.

    A few things at Costo - Week of June 20 . Kirkland, the Costco brand, has a 95% grass-fed butter from New Zealand, two pounds for $9.99. Your beloved Peptides are on sale for $23.99. Also, comparing various bone broth, Kirkland has 192 oz.( 12 pounds ) of organic chicken broth for $16.99, colored with turmeric and full of organic vegetables and herbs, way less than anyone else's. Also, chicken bone broth is higher in some amino acids than beef broth, including potassium, and the lesser amount of collagen is negligible - 1g less for 8oz. of broth. And, finally, I'd like to let you know that the New Orleans, La, Costco carries the 100% grass-fed beef patties in the freezer, for $19.99, just under $4.00 a pound. Thanks, Bobby. I'm learning a lot ! I hope this helps someone...

    Ive recently come across Allulose in some videos. Would like to hear more on this. Originally the hierarchy of healthy alternatives was Stevia and Monkfruit at the top followed closely by Erythritol which is my personal favorite because its not bitter. However Allulose seems to be even better. Anyone have any input?

    • @zippitydoodah5693
      @zippitydoodah5693 2 роки тому

      My wife has perfected a mixture of allulose and monk fruit. It's tricky to get the mix right, but she's nailed it. She even makes an icing for her lemon pound cake that is made with 100% allulose and 100% fresh squeezed meyer lemon juice. She makes one for family gatherings for me ( gluten free ) and it is gone inside of 10 minutes. Everyone loves it. She does a mix because the bulk of the allulose makes it a perfect substitute for baking, but it is only about 70% as sweet as sugar. The monk fruit bumps the sweetness. And you only need a teeny tiny bit of monk fruit because it is 150 to 200 times sweeter than sugar. The combination is the perfect replacement for sugar in baking.

    OK dear Bobbi! I have watched several of your videos now about sweetener and ingredients in various products and you still have not covered acesulfame potassium. In my opinion, it’s worse if that’s possible, than aspartame. They both can cause a host of health problems and I avoid these in all artificial sweeteners and a few others like the proverbial plague, along with corn syrup. So glad to know that aggravate is made with fructose. I did not know that you did not understand how I could be reacting to something a lot of people tout as wonderful. Thank you for the information. As always you are on it and I appreciate you.

I use the granular/crystals version from So nourished off Amazon and its amazing. It tastes just like sugar without that tooth aching syrupy sweetness that real sugar can give you. Goes in, gives me that sweetness, body cant process it - goes out without effect. AND its tooth friendly :)

      However, out of curiousity, I do want to try the monk fruit and revisit stevia. My only experience with stevia was years ago via the Truvia brand and I hated it. This time I will give the pure stevia drops a shot and see if that tastes any better to me.
