“modern healthy artifical sugar”, sure maybe we can find some artifcal sugar that is healthy, but idk, the internett doesnt say much about it other then some health benefits.

do you think i should chose stevia over aspartam and acesulfam k for example?

    I avoid artificial sweeteners as much as I can, and I’ve just been trying to reduce my sugar intake as well. If a recipe calls for sugar though, I’ll just use that.

    I’ve found it’s fairly easy to avoid desserts through making good fruit smoothies, and substituting sugary cereals for plain whole grain with frozen berries. I’ve dropped sugar from my teas, too.

    I still enjoy a good dessert, but I’m trying to wean myself off of ultra-processed foods as much as I can, just because there’s so many hidden ones (spaghetti sauce, for example , which was new to me. Apparently it contains a stupid amount of sugar iirc.)
