The Link Between Sugar-Sweetened Beverages and Obesity May 30, 2023 | By Tara Schmidt (@taraschmidt)Comment receiving replies
We tend to approach all non-nutritive sweeteners the same, regardless of main ingredient or brand, so we don't have a recommendation. What foods would you typically use these in? Would there be a way for you add a natural sugar, like fruit into plain yogurt, or avoid sweetening it all together, like milk in coffee?

I do not eat a lot of sugar but I have convinced myself I simply cannot get by without a bit of sugar in my tea. I was using honey until the price skyrocketed. I found stevia monk fruit is good (suggested by one of my replies). No after taste. Which fruit do you find best to flavour with? Thank you.!

I have found Stevia to be the least dubious for adding sweetness in an anti- inflammatory diet routine.
Homemade iced tea with or without stevia or key lime.
Some light tonic waters are made with Stevia.
Best to avoid added erythritrol until more research is in.
Look for a brand like “ in the raw”
Favorite mocktail is Qlight tonic and pomegranate 🥤 juice.
