Low calorie and no calorie sweeteners are so popular but on the flip side, social media posts and other media headlines have created fear and uncertainty about using them. Are they dangerous or even toxic? It's confusing and hard to decipher what is sound factual science against what is low quality science or even pseudo science.

Some of the many questions we talk about include:There are so many names for sugar substitutes including artificial sweeteners, sugar substitutes and low and no sugar sweeteners. They actually fall into different groups such as sugar alternatives, sugar alcohols, and artificial or non nutritive sweeteners. Would you go over what sugar alternative or no sugar sweeteners belong in which group?Recently, there were confusing headlines about sugar substitutes in general and another one specific to Sucralose. There is so much conflicting information in the news about sweeteners. Sometimes the information is accurate and reasonable and other times it's unrealistic and even ridiculous in the real world. What is your take?Is one sugar substitute better than another? How much is safe to use? Do you feel it varies between sugar alcohols and no sugar sweeteners with zero calories, even down to one specific sweetener over another? Erythritol recently got some bad press too but there's more to this story than the headline as well. Neva, why do some people prefer one sweetener over another?What else is in sweetener packets besides the low cal sweetener?Neva, what is your bottom line advice to my bariatric community about non sugar sweeteners? 

Have you heard that sugar substitutes can increase your cravings and maybe cause you to regain the weight you've lost? Or, maybe you've heard that these no and low calorie sweeteners might cause diabetes? Is this information true and even accurate?

Are you leaving foods out of your diet? You can run the risk of creating health issues if you are leaving out a food group, such as carbohydrates. "Our bodies need a variety of nutrients, which are obtained from variety of foods in our diet" points out Neva Cochran, a registered dietitian nutritionist. When you eliminate most of the foods in your diet, you are not going to be adequately nourished and may not have enough calories. That’s when your body starts breaking down muscle, producing ketones, or other consequences. Today's Food Bullying podcast guest advises us to not label foods good or bad, just try to eat all foods in moderation, prepared in ways that don’t add a lot of extra calories. Key points Cranberries, sustainability, and fruit floating at harvest. Excluding entire food groups leads to people missing out on nutrients Gaining weight back in the yo-yo syndrome and avoiding the quick fix of dieting. Dietary guidelines released every five years, recommended by experts.  My Plate is great way to eat a balanced diet with appropriate portion sizes. How to maintain a healthy lifestyle. Fear-based food marketing and uncontrolled label claims. It can be more efficient in food miles to get foods from far away rather than solely focus on local. Many times it’s not what we’re eating, but more about what we are not, such as produce. Why frozen and canned fruits and vegetables are just as nutritious as fresh, and often less expensive. They are always in season. Should we be concerned about preservatives or are they a distractor to healthy eating? People are looking for simple solutions to complex problems. Food shaming in the grocery store. How to overcome food bullying: don’t believe everything you hear from your friends or online, turn food package over to look at Nutrition Facts Panel, talk to a Registered Dietitian Nutrition if you have a specific health issue related to food and nutrition. Fab quotes “Physical activity is key to taking off and maintaining weight.” “The combination of eating a balanced diet and physical exercise is critical.” “People are very attracted to quick weight loss, like cutting out entire food groups, such as carbohydrates. It just doesn’t work and isn’t healthy.” “The fact is that you cannot tell a food grown with biotechnology in agriculture from one that isn’t. There is no nutritional difference.” “Our body is very efficient at cleansing out toxins, so people don’t need to worry about cleansing because our bodies do that naturally.” “90% of the people  in the U.S. do not eat enough fruits or vegetables.” “People get concerned about minutia when they should be focused on eating more fruits and vegetables and whole grains, as well as lean meats, low fat dairy and healthy fats.” Links Neva's website: www.NevaCochranRD.com Twitter & Instagram: @nevardld Neva's Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/NevaRDLD/ Produce for Health Foundation https://fruitsandveggies.org Have you liked the new Food Bullying Podcast Page on Facebook!
