Current Events > Healthy people of CE: What is your opinion on Monk Fruit as a sugar replacement?

(+) Yeah! (+)

I transitioned to pretty much only drinking Crystal Light a few years ago. I feel that was absolutely a positive change at the time but now Im planning on taking the next step. Im going to drop Crystal Light entirely after I finish remaining batch.

Im planning on drinking mostly pure water but Im also looking for a good sugar replacement. Im thinking Ill want to drink some Lemonade at times with a lemon and monk fruit as a sugar replacement. However, I cant seem to find out any great info on it. People that talk about it seem to always be sponsored based on what Ive seen. Also, even if they arent sponsored, these people might not know what they are talking about. Im trying to grab as much info and opinions as possible.

It seems like the best and healthiest replacement based on what Ive seen/read.

Can't really comment on monkfruit but I do have my own suggestion. Have you tried something like a flavored but unsweetened seltzer water? I've been drinking flavored waters from Polar, they're surprisingly good and have zero sugar or artificial sweetener in them. I find the Kirkland brand stuff at Costco to be pretty decent too.

There isn't an unhealthy sugar replacement so don't worry about what gives you the most benefits. Choose the one that tastes best for you. Stevia and Sucralose is what I use mostly, but I have monk fruit in the house too.

OK cool. I just buy Monkfruit this time and see how it goes. No harm in experimenting then. Thanks
