 Some people claim that they have a sweet tooth and it'll never go away, but is that a good or a bad thing? Hey there, njroute22.com here with another low-carb keto carnivore chat, and today it's again about the sweet tooth, and I'm really fascinated by the sensations that sweet foods cause in your mouth, both mentally and physically. I guess we can break this down into two distinct categories here. It's things that raise your blood sugar, and those are carbs, sugar included, and then there's the actual sweet sensation in your mouth. And that includes regular sugar, artificial sugar, bad sugar, like aspartame, which really, from what I understand, screws you up pretty good, and then there's the new sugars, which are supposed to be great, monk fruit, erythritol, xylitol, and similar sugars that are claimed to not affect your blood sugar. But I've mentioned this, and I've noticed this, that when something happens, I'll make an ice cream out of heavy cream, and I'll throw some swerve in it, which is erythritol, and I can't stop eating it. It creates this psychological sensation in your body that you just can't seem, it's never ending. So it makes me wonder that it makes me wonder if you shouldn't eat anything sweet, even if it's a good sugar, like erythritol, because sugar is so addictive and so on. And I talk to people who say, oh, I can't give up my cake, or my candy, or my chocolate, and they do that. They've convinced themselves that they can't do it. And they're basically victims of the food that they put in their mouth. They can't escape it. And I've been self-reflecting, and I feel the same way. Like when I eat something sweet, even the good sugars, I find myself almost, I lack control, or it's so good, quote, unquote, that's a quote, good. We think it's good, but it's just some sort of pleasure center that gets pleased in our body. And I think it might be a good idea for everybody that's either dieting, whatever their diet it's called, or if they're on a low-carb keto carnivore diet, to not try and replace the sweets they used to enjoy with new sweets that keep you addicted to that sweet sensation. We went a long time without eating any sweets. And when you eat something, even as mild as a blueberry, which is extremely low glycemic, you find yourself, wow, that's sweet. And I don't know. I don't like the feeling that I get when I eat sweets. So I think we're really going to stop even the good sweetener. So what do you think about that? I think that's a good step for everybody to take. You'll break the chains of addiction, food addiction, and you'll get really, really in tune with your body and take back control of your life, and so on. Enjoy the rest of your day.
