Artificial Sweetener Linked to Blood Clots, Heart Attacks: Study #shorts

A commonly used artificial sweetener called erythritol is strongly linked to a higher risk of heart attack and stroke, according to a new study.

The sweetener, which is made from fermented corn, is commonly used in products that are designed to be low-calorie, low-carbohydrate, or for people on keto diets. Some table sugar replacement products also use it, such as the product Truvia.
