Sweetner in tea?

(Abbi) #1

Hi all, can anyone let me know if sweetner in tea is ok - Having a real sweet tooth - nothing in it just isn’t cutting it!

TIA x

Yes. It depends on the sweetener as some impact people more than others. If you do not react to it in a negative way then go ahead. What I would say is to try and reduce the amount you use as your sweetness sensitivity dials back in.

Totally agree with @Daisy, all depends on how sensitive your body is to the artificial sweetener. I still use them because I like the sweet stuff :smile: An interesting article published here https://authoritynutrition.com/artificial-sweeteners-blood-sugar-insulin/

Thanks guys! I did the Atkins diet about 7 years ago with great success and used sweetner on it and it didn’t seem to affect me so fingers crossed it will be ok with this diet too!
