Evidence in vitro suggests enhanced platelet activity. Plasma levels of erythritol are sustained for >2d above thresholds associated with platelet hyper-reactivity after consumption of realistic doses.
I use artificial sweeteners, but prefer sucralose or anything else to erythritol. I actually don't understand why people still use it (often in 'health food' because it's seen as 'natural'), there are much safer options.
- bshacklett 1y agoAnecdotally, I have preferred it to sucralose, because sucralose leaves an aftertaste akin to gargling with liquid plastic.
- IAmBroom 1y agoThat's not even an anecdote; it's a taste preference, and that's fine.
