In addition, eating or drinking foods with fake sugars often doesn’t give you the same satisfaction as the real thing. You don’t get the same “mouth feel” and you don’t get the same satiety factor, and so you may end up craving the sugary food you wanted to eat in the first place with even more urgency. My advice is to stay away from any artificial sweeteners in anything you eat or drink. You will find many great natural sweetener options in chapter 7, including coconut nectar, maple syrup, honey, agave, and green leaf stevia.
