I'll also cover how allulose may affect digestion, including bloating, cramping, diarrhea, and gut bacteria, why it may be hiding in many low-carb and keto products, and why this sweetener may not be as harmless as it's often made out to be. Plus, I'll share what I use instead when I want to add sweetness without relying on sugar substitutes.

→ How Allulose is made

→ Why Allulose does NOT come from fruit
