Also have you met my good friend stevia which I will drop as soon as bad things come out about it
Only thing bad about stevia that I know of is the lingering aftertaste. I am told that regular users don't notice it.

There aren't THAT many calories in sugar.

The shitty aftertaste is the universal problem.

I'm sure they all cause cancer too. That's not really a deal breaker, everything does.

I thought research showed sweet substances, whether rich in calories or not, produce an insulin effect regardless. The sweeter the substance, the greater the effect.

Here, from a 2020 study:

Quote:
Incidence of diabetes mellitus has increased over the past few years, mainly due to our eating habits and physical inactivity. This also includes the use of artificial sweetening agents which have broadly replaced other forms of sugars and have shown a paradoxical, negative effect on blood glucose. Ingestion of these artificial sweeteners (AS) results in the release of insulin from pancreas which is mistaken for glucose (due to their sweet taste). This increases the levels of insulin in blood eventually leading to decreased receptor activity due to insulin resistance.

https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7014832/

So yes, lower calories. The insulin effect, and associated diabetes risk, is proportional to its sweetness not calorie amount however.

First day back at work and wow was it a ghost town. A lot of people that called off, not wanting to work for free I guess.

Good tagline for the 1900's century of the species

"Welcome to humanity from 1901-1999. There aren't THAT many calories in sugar"

Our second semester here had no holidays, so I wish I could have some days off.

It is being way harder than I thought working 3 days/week at office.

Im completely certain that if they decide to make it 4 or 5 days at office, Im quitting in the first day.

Starch, especially combined with fat, is the leading cause of flab.

Want fries with that?

Lack of exercise is the leading cause of flab.

Starch is a great source of energy, but that energy needs to be spent.

I dont know if it's still the case, but 20 years ago there was a single flavour without the bad aftertaste
