“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?

    It is still healthier than the damage sugar does to your metabolism. Sugar in its modern form doesn’t really serve a great purpose and basically only introduces inflammation. Sweeteners can get around this but I believe evidence supports that the “sweet” feeling still illicits some sort of physiological response with the metabolism. Still, it’s better to get only natural sugars in our food and use a light sweetener to help replace sugar. Over the years I’ve discovered I only like certain brands of stevia based flavor squirts. When I tried powderized stevia, I found the major brands used gross filler and had a bad aftertaste. Even Stevia in the Raw still has an organic option that uses sugar to bond the powder instead of the filler. I think it takes a lot of discovery and exploration. Sometimes, it also requires some Stockholm syndrome to finish whatever supply you wasted money on lol
