I noticed that almost all types of cooking oil (vegetable oil, olive oil, peanut oil, etc) contain some saturated fat. Since saturated fat is known to be a contributor to heart disease, then could you simply remove the saturated fats from the oil to make it healthier?
That’s the problem with most substances with no caloric value, the body can’t absorb it and tries to get rid of it by inducing the shits. Your colon is like: “Wtf is this dude eating mud?”.
This is why those sugar-free gummy bears give people epic diarrhea, they are almost completely sugar replacements. The brain and nose/mouth love it, but the intestines can’t do anything with it and want to get rid of it ASAP.
I’m not sure there is a way to fix this, which is kinda sad because I really want to lose weight, but also stress eat sweets.
Reverse chirality sugar may be a way forward, but nobody has figured out how to make it cheap in large quantities.
What sugar substitute do they use in that? Cuz aspartame and Splenda (the two most common substitutes I am aware of) ain’t never gave me the shits like Olestra chips did. Your body did literally nothing with that stuff so it came out the same way it went in, giving you an oily discharge.
I really dislike these words in this order.
Sorbitol and xylitol are common sugar alcohols used in gums and gummies. Sorbitol is naturally occurring in fruits in varying amounts, and, in conjunction with fiber, contributes to the medicinal effects of prunes and prune juice.
Ah… I actually go out of my way to avoid sorbitol just because it’s one of the things that’s really toxic for dogs. Not that I’d give them a gummy bear; but if they should get into them while I’m not looking I wouldn’t want it to be something that could kill them.
You should probably spend a bit more time avoiding xylitol then, if that’s your reasoning. Sorbitol isn’t toxic to dogs for the most part. Xylitol on the other hand is.
