Скачать или смотреть Atkins Diet: Acceptable Low Carb Sweeteners

In this video, I give my perspective on the acceptable sweeteners for those following a low carb diet. A number of new sweeteners have hit the market since Dr. Atkins wrote his book, and while I don't presume to talk for him, I am giving my perspective on the sweeteners on the market based upon personal experience and meta-analysis of the experts in the field. As with most things, your experience may differ from mine or the norm, and you may be able to consume a particular sweetener and have no side effects and continue to lose weight at the rate expected.

One final note -- one thing Dr. Atkins said was our food should be as unprocessed as possible, and that we should shop the exterior of the grocery store. Most of the foods sweetened with these items are in the middle or a special health food section. The vast majority of your food on the Atkins Diet should be regular food with natural ingredients. Each day or even meal does not need a dessert to cap it off.

Oligofructose / Inulin (http://www.lowcarbfreedom.com/2004/12...) -- http://bit.ly/dpHF6s
Inulin works just like fiber and is made out of plants like chicory root and isn't digested like other starches, it isn't absorbed, so it doesn't have an effect on blood sugar.
Inulin (IN-yoo-lin) is used as a test to help diagnose problems or disease of the kidneys. Inulin passes out of the body entirely in the urine. Measuring the amount of inulin in the blood after it has been given can help the doctor determine if the kidneys are working properly.

Less acceptable or Unacceptable Sweeteners:
Polyols (Sugar Alcohol) like maltitol and sorbitol
count against net carbs
are able to be converted in varying degrees to glucose
from better to worse (Erythritol .2 Cal/gram)- Xylitol - Isomalt - Sorbitol (2.6C/g) - Mannitol Maltitol (2.1C/g)) http://www.mendosa.com/netcarbs.htm
The reason that sugar alcohols provide fewer calories than sugar is because they are not completed absorbed in our body. For this reason, high intakes of foods containing some sugar alcohols can lead to abdominal gas and diarrhea. Any foods that contain sorbitol or mannitol must include a warning on their label that "excess consumption may have a laxative effect."

Aspartame - Causes Stalls, Cephalic Insulin Reactions (YMMV)

Blue Agave Syrup (Lower GI, but extremely high fructose)
Dr. Michael EADES: Be aware that agave nectar is mainly fructose, which is not only caloric, but a lipogenic sugar and fraught with problems for an insulin-resistant body. It doesnt run insulin up, of course, but it does promote insulin resistance if not used sparingly.

"Perhaps because of needing to be metabolized in the liver, fructose causes non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, making the livers even of teetotalers look and function like those of long-term alcoholics. Fructose is implicated in metabolic syndrome -- you know, carbohydrate intolerance, the thing we're all fighting. Repeated studies demonstrate that fructose raises triglycerides like nothing else. And there are some studies that indicate that the stuff is uniquely fattening. "
The glycemic index does not address other metabolic issues related to excess sugar consumption. Prominent among these issues is the use of low glycemic index sweeteners, particularly fructose, which is increasingly present in processed food. Fructose is associated with increased adiposity, which may result from its effects on hormones associated with satiety

Honey - extremely high fructose
See above comments on Agave Nectar

Whey Low - Lactose (http://www.wheylow.com/) Ingredients: Sucrose, Fructose, Lactose (all simple sugars)

Others combine unaccepable ingredients with acceptable ones:
Sun Crystals - mixed Stevia with Sugar
Splenda Baking Mixes- mixed 50-50 with sugar
Splenda w/ Fiber - additional carbs (more than regular Splenda) and added corn fiber (not acceptable for Induction)
