Cardiovascular diseasesRisk factorsMetabolomics analyses reported an increased risk of cardiovascular disease associated with the artificial sweetener erythritol, supported by mechanistic studies showing that high levels of erythritol enhanced platelet reactivity and thrombosis formation....
Erythritol, a sugar substitute commonly used in reduced-sugar products, may increase risk for negative cardiovascular events such as heart attack and stroke, according to new research.
Concerns have been raised about its potential link to blood clotting and increased cardiovascular disease risk, although most studies do not support this. We look forward to more research on this topic. Importantly, some individuals might notice that using alternative sweeteners, including erythritol, ...
Hwa agrees that limiting sugar intake and not consuming products with erythritol is the best strategy. “Erythritol may not be a safe sugar substitute, particularly in at-risk cardiovascular patients,” he says.
Erythritol is a sugar alcohol, a carb found naturally in many fruits and vegetables. However, artificially manufactured in massive quantities, erythritol has become an extremely popular additive to low-carb products. The discovery of the connection between erythritol and cardiovascular issues was purely...
Erythritol, a sugar substitute commonly used in reduced-sugar products, may increase risk for negative cardiovascular events such as heart attack and stroke, according to new research.
“This certainly sounds an alarm,” said Dr. Andrew Freeman, director of cardiovascular prevention and wellness at National Jewish Health, a hospital in Denver, who was not involved in the research. “There appears to be a clotting risk from using erythritol,” Freeman said. “Obviously, mo...
