You Will Love Bocha Sweet I have tried 'all' the natural sweeteners trying to find a replacement for sugar. Bocha Sweet is the first one that I liked and continue to use. There is no aftertaste, it tastes great and measures like sugar. It dissolves easier then sugar which is another plus. I carry a small container of Bocha Sweet with me when I.
Does anybody know if pentose is keto-okay?
There exists a sweetener called BochaSweet that consists solely of pentose. They claim it's zero GI, zero kcal, and that it's metabolized without insulin. However, I couldn't find any definite information on how exactly does pentose affect metabolism to refute or confirm their claims, so I would appreciate any input in that respect from people more familiar with this topic. I did find a thread on some low-cal forum where a couple of diabetic people measured their glucose before and after eating this sweetener, but I'm not familiar with measuring and interpreting glucose readings. If there is no glucose spike, does it mean there is no insulin spike either? If there is no glucose spike, would the sweetener be keto-okay?
Thanks for reading!
