Monk Fruit Extract: Zero-Calorie Sweetener, Surprising Benefits? Ep. 1241 MAY 2025A recent PRISMA-guided systematic review published in Nutrients synthesized findings from randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to assess the impact of monk fruit extract (MFE) on metabolic health, lipid profiles, inflammation, and regulatory considerations. The review included a number of RCTs (note: while some search results indicated 10, others mentioned 5 included studies; refer to the final published article for the definitive number). The findings indicate that MFE may help reduce postprandial glucose levels (by 10–18% in included studies) and insulin responses (by 12–22%). Some studies also reported reductions in inflammatory markers such as IL-6 and TNF-α. No severe adverse effects were observed in the reviewed trials. The review also notes that MFE is approved for use in the United States and China, with its status under review in the European Union. The authors suggest MFE shows potential as a functional food ingredient for metabolic health, though they highlight the need for long-term clinical trials and a harmonized regulatory framework to confirm its long-term safety and efficacy within sustainable health strategies.

Let's talk about alternative sweeteners. Trying alternative sweeteners when starting the ketogenic diet can make the transition much easier. Notice I said alternative sweeteners and not artificial sweeteners. While alternative sweeteners aren't completely natural, they are less artificial and less harmful than artificial sweeteners. Keto snacks and desserts often have different kinds of alternative or artificial sweeteners. Trying keto snacks and keto desserts isn't a bad thing, but it's crucial to check the ingredients. Just because it's labeled “keto” doesn't make it healthy. Out of all of the sweeteners, erythritol and xylitol* are two of the best. But it's still better to only consume small amounts. Monk fruit and stevia are also great options. However, with stevia, it's important to make sure that the product doesn't also contain maltodextrin. Maltodextrin is higher on the glycemic index than sugar. Maltitol, agave nectar, and functional fibers should also be avoided. Including too much of these sugar alcohols (even the good ones) in your diet can cause bloating, fluid retention, diarrhea, and can upset the gut microbiome. They may also prevent you from getting rid of cravings. I think sugar alternatives are great to help a person transition off of consuming sugar and for an occasional treat—but they shouldn't be consumed on a regular basis. *Pet owners should keep in mind that certain alternative sweeteners, like xylitol, can be highly toxic to animals. Sugar alternatives can be found in a wide range of products and may go by different names. It's best to keep these types of products far out of reach from your pets.

Thank you for joining us for our 2nd Cabral HouseCall of the weekend! I'm looking forward to sharing with you some of our community's questions that have come in over the past few weeks…   Natalie: I am interested to know Dr Cabral's thoughts on the safety of sweeteners like Stevia and Monk Fruit? Monk fruit especially is increasingly showing up in food and supplements and it's very difficult to find information online about it.   Stacey: Hello, I was recently diagnosed with SIBO and I am wondering what protocol you recommend. I am also breastfeeding Thank you Stacey   Hannah: My question is relating to an ongoing histamine intolerance. I've done the 21 day detox, CBO, 2 months CBO finisher, heavy metal & mold detoxes, two more 7 day liver detoxes, and the parasite protocol. Each protocol was helpful but the parasite protocol (I completed 8-wks) is where I saw the most help with my histamine intolerance. It is significantly better than before that protocol in particular, but I can only handle small amounts of high histamine or histamine liberating foods. I get muscle twitches, sour stomach after eating highly acidic fruits such as oranges/berries, my right foot feels weak/like I'm limping, my right ankle swells up especially with beer, and I get stuck burps/trapped air in between and during meals. I also have a persistent scalloped tongue. Any advice?   Anonymous: Hello Dr. Cabral, I am an IHP Level 2 and RN and appreciate all the work you do and the course you made. I'm slowly chipping away on protocols as it seems I have symptoms of everything. That being said I have a history of recurrent incessant pericarditis resulting in a Pericardiectomy in 2021. My surgeon said this should have gotten rid of the pain - it has prevented me from being hospitalized again but I do still experience pain when stressed and sometimes around the heart when taking deep breaths. Additionally I struggle with a lot of jaw /neck pain. I'm looking for any advice or expertise around addressing pericarditis at the root cause as I know that these symptoms are probably still related to the pericarditis that was only addressed by surgery and not at the root.   Rozita: Dear Dr.Cabral,I'll try to be short. Diagnosed w/ Hashimoto's 3 weeks ago.Tsh,Ft4,Ft3- normal,TPO -900.Also,thyroid nodules diagnosed in2004. I am taking Se,Zn,D3, Mg,Turmeric,VitB complex,Vit A,VitE, and a Multivitamin for seniors, that has Iodine 150mcg.Question: should I continue to take the Multivitamin w/ the included Iodine? Thank you very much for the answer. You are the Best! I live by Your videos and recommendations. Kind regards! Rozita 73 yr,   Anonymous: Hi! I see black garlic in recipes a lot lately and also hear about its benefits but.. it's charred garlic, no? Is it healthy or not and why?   Thank you for tuning into this weekend's Cabral HouseCalls and be sure to check back tomorrow for our Mindset & Motivation Monday show to get your week started off right!   - - - Show Notes and Resources: StephenCabral.com/2781 - - - Get a FREE Copy of Dr. Cabral's Book: The Rain Barrel Effect - - - Join the Community & Get Your Questions Answered: CabralSupportGroup.com - - - Dr. Cabral's Most Popular At-Home Lab Tests: > Complete Minerals & Metals Test (Test for mineral imbalances & heavy metal toxicity) - - - > Complete Candida, Metabolic & Vitamins Test (Test for 75 biomarkers including yeast & bacterial gut overgrowth, as well as vitamin levels) - - - > Complete Stress, Mood & Metabolism Test (Discover your complete thyroid, adrenal, hormone, vitamin D & insulin levels) - - - > Complete Food Sensitivity Test (Find out your hidden food sensitivities) - - - > Complete Omega-3 & Inflammation Test (Discover your levels of inflammation related to your omega-6 to omega-3 levels) - - - Get Your Question Answered On An Upcoming HouseCall: StephenCabral.com/askcabral - - - Would You Take 30 Seconds To Rate & Review The Cabral Concept?

Find out how to enjoy dessert while still in ketosis with these 4 keto-friendly sugar substitutes.

New World Health Organization (WHO) guidance advises against the use of sugar substitutes for weight loss purposes. In this episode of the Xtalks Food Podcast, Sydney talks about the WHO's review, which suggests that while a mild reduction in body weight may occur in the short term, it is not sustainable over time. The review also highlighted potential negative effects associated with long-term use of sugar substitutes, including a slightly increased risk of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular diseases. The review incorporated 283 studies, including randomized controlled trials and observational studies. Both the Calorie Control Council, an international association representing the low-calorie food and beverage industry, and the International Sweeteners Association, an industry association, expressed disappointment with the WHO's guidance. The team is not surprised with the WHO's guidance but wonders how much of an impact it will have on the broader food industry.Also in this episode, Sydney talks about Pairwise, a startup based in Durham, North Carolina, that launched its first CRISPR-developed product in the US: Conscious Greens. Touted as a mix of superfood leafy greens, the product claims to offer twice the nutrition of traditional romaine lettuce and comes with an appealing fresh flavor. This product is notable because the company claims it's the first food product in the US that was developed using CRISPR technology. CRISPR, or Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats, is a gene-editing technique that can be used to alter the DNA of cells to enhance certain characteristics or reduce less desirable ones. In this case, Pairwise used CRISPR to address the issue that most lettuces lack nutritional value, and many other greens are too bitter or hard to eat. Sydney also mentions other companies that are using CRISPR in agriculture, including Inari Agriculture, Monsanto and DuPont. The team wonders whether food companies will have to include a label that indicates whether a food product was developed with CRISPR. Read the full article here:New WHO Guidance Advises Against Sugar Substitutes for Weight LossHow Pairwise Leverages CRISPR Technology for Leafy GreensFor more food and beverage industry content, visit the Xtalks Vitals homepage.Follow Us on Social Media Twitter: @XtalksFood Instagram: @Xtalks Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Xtalks.Webinars/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/xtalks-webconferences YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/XtalksWebinars/featured

Motivated by her love of plants (and insatiable curiosity), Celia studied conservation and natural resource compliance at Lethbridge College in Alberta. She went on to obtain a Red Seal in horticulture from the Niagara Parks School of Horticulture, and currently works as a Tea, Herb & Sustainability Specialist at DAVIDsTEA. But we're not done yet! Celia has also completed an additional bachelor's degree of Science in Horticulture, basically proving that her love of tea and plants is no passing fancy. With an encyclopedic knowledge of plants and their various impacts on individuals as well as the planet, Celia has committed most of her time to the proliferation of tea and plant knowledge. As a trained Tea Sommelier, she brings joy to those around her by sharing a cup of tea with anyone and everyone, at any time. Fun fact: she lived in Japan for three months studying matcha production and the Japanese tea ceremony, so quiz her, she loves it!Kelly MillerKelly Miller has been tea obsessed for nearly a decade. What is the source of her obsession, you ask? It all started when Kelly visited a DAVIDsTEA store for the first time to buy a gift for a friend. Intrigued by our Birthday Cake tea, she gave it a quick sip. And just like that Kelly, the tea sommelier, was born. THAC (Tea and Herbal Association of Canada) Certified, Kelly currently works as the Research & Development Lead at the DAVIDsTEA headquarters. Her generous and exploratory nature makes her an indispensable member of the team as she continuously pushes for new flavour innovations. Since her first introduction to the world of tea, she has tried over 10,000 teas AND her personal collection exceeds 1,500 unique teas and blends!

“The best way to predict the future is to create it.” - Peter Drucker   There is no better time than right now to start a business! You don't need to quit your day job to chase the dream, have a bunch of money to start, or even a hard 5-year plan! I know, this is not what you have heard in the past, but it's a different ball game these days. You can start at any age, with very little, if you know the right steps. I am excited to welcome Sabina and Casey to the T&T mic! They are the co-founders of Byte Bars and they chose to jump into entrepreneurship right out of the gates of college! Sabina and Casey share their journey thus far- the how, the why, and the end game! This is a great conversation if you are looking to start your own thing, whatever it may be. There is of course a place for funding, a formal plan, and the right marketing, but the main pieces that drive the ship and keep it moving are the passion for the cause and the team along the way (strategic partners are always a plus too)! Start small and use all the things at your immediate fingertips, including social media, friends, and family! Thanks Sabina and Casey, can't wait to see how the company and the cause grows!!   Highlights: Entrepreneurs, young entrepreneurship. Chasing a dream and taking a risk. Advice for startups and the power of relationships. Transparency in business. Competitive on and off the field. Leaning into the authentic brand. Doing what you love and loving what you do. Listening, learning, and evolving.     Byte Bars: Casey and Sabina, the co-founders of Byte Bars, moved to Colorado to build a healthier lifestyle. The cousin duo couldn't find a satisfying snack that could keep up. So, they made Byte Bars. Fuel small enough to throw in your pocket, powerful enough to get you up the mountains, and raw enough to get you through the powder. Byte Bars were built for badass people just like Casey and Sabina, who approach life with the work-hard-play-hard mentality.   Byte Bars are delicious AF (and Fun!) energy bars made with vegan, RAW, + Non-GMO ingredients like Organic Dates, MCT Oil, and Monk Fruit. Each bar is pre-portioned into two Bytes for shareable, easy snacking. Byte Bars are crafted with purposeful healthy ingredients to power your day. Casey and Sabina, the female superheroes behind the brand, are striving to create a more sustainable world one Byte at a time.

When you hear the wide variety of serious health benefits from this natural sweetener, it may be hard to believe at first. Some of the topics include plaque in the artery, seasonal allergies, immune system, anti-cancer, anti-obesity, and many more. All while being 200-300 times sweeter than cane sugar without the bitter aftertaste, virtually calorie free and no impact on blood sugar. Amazing whether you are into fasting or not - all said in 5.5 minutes! Julie@JPWOWPrograms.com 

There are all sorts of “natural sweeteners” on the market, but we've got questions… How natural are they? Are they a healthy substitute to other sweeteners?First off, our preferred natural sweeteners are very minimally processed; honey, maple syrup, and coconut sugar. Things like agave, cane sugar, rice syrup, etc. tend to be much more processed and therefore “empty calories.” Then there are the real garbage products like corn syrup and beat sugar (which are GMO, toxic foods) as well as synthetic sweeteners like aspartame, surculose, saccharin, etc. which can be toxic to the nervous system.Today we wanted to unpack a couple of other products that get slapped with the “natural sweetener” label - those derived from Stevia and Monk Fruit. We discuss the pros to these, the cons, and the bottom line recommendation.It's easy to group monk fruit and stevia together in this conversation since they (a) both come from whole plant foods (b) have naturally occurring super-sweet “glycosides” and (c) are processed to extract the glycosides to create “zero-calorie” natural sweeteners.If you'd like to join these conversations live, be sure to Subscribe to the Alter Health YouTube Channel! https://www.youtube.com/alterhealthSome highlights from today's MM episode...Stevia is a leafy shrub while monk fruit is a guard that grows on a vineBoth have naturally occurring glycosides that provide a sweet taste (setvioside and rebaudioside A or reb A in stevia and mogrosides in monk fruit)They are naturally sweet in their crude form, but also have bitter tastes as wellThese plants are processed through dozens of steps (up to 40 or more) that include bleaching and extraction via methanol and ethanol before getting the final glycoside extractBoth stevia and monk fruit products are 200 - 300 times sweeter than sugar (sucrose)The products are indeed “zero-calorie” since they mainly contain the sweet constituent and no other nutrition - therefore they have no impact on blood sugarStudies show stevia can have some detrimental effects on the gut microbiome (rat studies)Processed sweeteners such as these can dull sweet receptor tastebuds on the tongue while creating a supraphysiologic dopamine response to perpetuate sweet cravings and food addictionLinks to some more good stuff-  Join Alter Health on Locals: https://alterhealth.locals.com/- Cleanse with Us during the next Alter Health Cleanse: https://www.alter.health/cleanse- Work with us in the Thrive on Plants program: https://www.alter.health/thrive-on-plants- ATTN Health Practitioners!

Sugar addiction in kids is real and every parent knows that the second their son or daughter gets their hand on the sweet stuff the good behaviour game is over for the day and trying to deny our kids these sweet foods can lead to some emotional explosions - that's the immediate pain. The delayed pain is the skyrocketing numbers of kids developing obesity, diabetes, fatty liver disease and an inability to focus or learn or maintain a stable state as well as the healthier kids around them. In this episode we have a world expert in the scientific research of child and infant nutrition sharing some eye opening information that needs to be actioned to get the benefit for you and your family.On this episode we chat about:Is breastmilk or formula better for your babies growth and microbiome diversityIs the sugar in fruit good or badWhy you've been misled about artificial sweeteners***Join the Busy Mum's Facebook Group here: https://mattylansdown.com/BusyMothersFBgroup ***--SOCIAL MEDIA--Michael GoranWebsite: https://sugarproofkids.com/Instagram Facebook Twitter--MATTY LANSDOWNJoin the Busy Mum's Facebook Group: https://mattylansdown.com/BusyMothersFBgroupInstagram: [deplatformed]... instead, join our Uncensored email list here--Intro/Outro track Tropic Love by "Diviners feat.

A listener recently asked me to talk about sweeteners, specifically monk fruit and stevia.Disclaimer: I don't use either of these sweeteners... but this isn't about me! ;-)In this episode I talk about my take on these two sweeteners. I invite you to ask yourself these questions (with no judgement, just gentle curiosity):why am I choosing products that are sweeter than sugar?why am I looking for sweet tastes?what is my relationship with sweet tastes?what other tastes can I learn to enjoy?what is my behaviour like around sweeteners and sweet foods?can you imagine what  freedom from sugar (or sweeteners) could feel like for you?is there any sweetness that you feel is missing in your life?There are no wrong answers! Plus you have my full permission to choose whatever you want to eat, including sweeteners. (P.S. It's not up to me to give you permission for anything!)Download your Simple Guide to living the joyful freedom of "life after sugar" here.To get to the heart of your relationship with sugar and other types of foods so that you can live the true joy of real freedom and live a healthier life, take a peek into the After Sugar Club here.
