5 Top Healthy Sweeteners

 Top ratings go to 1) Raw Honey, 2) PureLo by Swanson, 3) Swerve Sweetener, 4) Lakanto, and 5) Raw Stevia leaves, the only healthy sweeteners I can find. My criterion are purity, stable blood sugar, and balanced metabolism. With a world epidemic of diabetes, obesity, and metabolic disorder, we need sweeteners that stop the sugar cycle in it's tracks. Sadly, grocery stores do not carry healthy sweeteners, so we buy them online. We don't really need sweeteners, but some of us got used to a ...

 Have you ever wondered what's at the root of our world cancer epidemic? Like all disease, there are MANY, MANY contributing factors.

Xylitol, NOT a low calorie sweetener!

 By Jane Barthelemy. Is Xylitol a healthy sweetener? Touted as a safe sugar substitute for diabetics in snacks, chewing gum, and baking, Xylitol is NOT the low-calorie sweetener it's cracked up to be.

How is Xylitol produced? How does it affect the body? You deserve to know the truth to make an informed choice. ...

Both fructose and glucose taste fabulously delicious! Yet they're both the toxic root of obesity and metabolic mayhem in the body. Together these two sugars cause or exacerbate most of our modern chronic diseases. ...

How Healthy is Your Breakfast Cereal?

Still Counting Calories & Carbs?

 We love to measure things. We hope by counting Nutrition Facts we can know how GOOD a food is for us. But how effective is it?

Obviously, this will vary depending on the type of seed, minerals and microbes in the soil, growing conditions, and freshness of the food. Ha Ha!
