Health risk of using erythritol (a sugar substitute additive)

The way the articles read was that it equated the use of Stevia and Monk Fruit with Erythritol being present, but based on what Ascent Protein wrote this is not the case.

I suspect in the months to come we are going to see labels that say “Does not contain Erythritol” in products where it is not present but use Stevia or Monk Fruit as sweeteners.

I agree. I reread the article a couple of times to try to understand the scope. Based on some other web info I found, consumers will need the producers to explicitly state whether or not their products contain Erythritol. For example, I don’t think it’s possible to say “all stevia leaf extract products are free of Erythritol” — that’s too broad of a generalization.
