Erythritol and Metabolic Disease

A recent study highlights a concerning link between elevated erythritol levels and metabolic diseases such as heart attacks and strokes. The confusion arises from the media's tendency to conflate correlation with causation, leading to misconceptions about the true nature of these findings. As insulin resistance develops from excessive sugar intake, the body may convert glucose into erythritol, raising questions about dietary choices in a society dominated by high carbohydrate consumption.
