I agree. There are milder examples though that you eat anyways such as coffee, straw/blue/raspberries, greek yogurt, and dark chocolate. Miracle fruit works with all these foods too, not just extremely sour ones. In fact, the flav

You are correct, tricking your mind doesn't trick your insulin...normally. There are several studies showing that miracle fruit can actually improve blood glucose levels. Thus it could be more beneficial to diabetics than using any oth

Very interesting. Sorry to hear about that. What is very interesting about lemon juice is that even though it is acidic, when your body processes it it becomes basic. Lemon juice is literally the ideal example. Check out all my demos starti

Good suggestion! It is safe and, in fact, Coca Cola ran a toxicology test less than a year ago and said there are no possible long-term side effects. Moreover, a study in 1974 fed rats 30,000x what a human would normally eat daily and found

Yeah haha it is an MVP (classic YC move). I just got an investor and we're rebranding but all my stickers are miracle-nutrition. Hopefully it will look more professional and trustworthy when the pros take the reins here.

They would never take me seriously with 0 sales. I plan to apply to PepsiCo's accelerator but they only look at companies with $1M+ sales. Help me get to the scale where I can! As a matter of fact, my competitor which is making GMO mir

I've spoken with the leading expert and it does indeed create the perception of sweetness where there once was not. The enhanced sweetness, however does inhibit the bitterness and enhances flavor. That is why you begin to pick up flavo

Lots of people don't like stevia, monk fruit, sucralose, etc because of its aftertaste. Due to the unique mechanism of the miracle fruit (indirectly activating your tastebuds instead of directly), it does not have a weird taste. The fa

Fair. I think the main thing I'm trying to emphasize here is that this crazy thing is found in nature not some chemical shit made in a lab. Also a lot of my competitors put chemicals in their products for flavor and consistency and I t

Hmm although I wouldn't recommend eating an entire lemon, lots of the foods that work well with miracle fruit you would already consume regularly - berries, greek yogurt, coffee, sauces, cocktails, etc. I use it everyday with greek yog

Excellent question! This is what my whole business is about! While the efficacy is the same, the difference is in the timing. In my testing those pills take ~10 minutes to dissolve, maybe 5 minutes if you are rolling it around on your tongu

I started this discussion because I watched this podcast and one of the questions was "why we don't have enough founders in the world" which spurred the thought. https://www.spreaker.com/user/10197011

I came to a realization to why there are not enough founders out there, and it's not because there's not enough $1B ideas out there. Loads of people get that AHA moment with an incredible idea one night that infects their mind. At
