I'm into keto. You should give xylitol a try, as it's bulk and texture match table sugar closely and can be used interchangeably. It can cause gastric issues for some in certain quantities. Debates on /r/keto rage all the time on whether artificial sweeteners cause an insulin response. And if it does, whether or not it is a chemical or psychological response. The science on the topic seems to be nacent at this point, at least from this layman's view. The most common recommendation is to simply give up sweets entirely, not just carbs. As one hooked on the Monster Zero line of power drinks, I have a tough time with this myself.
