"(I)n 1992, when the food pyramid was introduced... we were told to eat more carbohydrates-based foods like whole grains, fruits, and vegetables and less meat and fat. So we shifted our calorie intake dramatically toward carbohydrates, and in the following years there was an astronomic rise in the rates of obesity, type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and other chronic health problems."

"The secret to success when baking with erythritol... is to cream the fat first, then add the sweetener. When making traditional baked goods, normally sugar and butter are beaten together; a chemical reaction between the two creates a lot of air. Since erythritol has a different chemical structure than sugar, the butter (or other fat) should be beaten on its own until light and fluffy... after... erythritol added."
