> It's not like erythritol is hard for a consumer to avoid.

How many ingredients with negative effects on the order of erythritol are in my foods, cosmetic products, homecare products, food packaging, etc that I need to be aware of? Not how hard is it to avoid erythritol -- but how hard is it to avoid every substance that is at least similarly bad for me?



Well, you're always welcome to be reckless and kill yourself faster if that's your goal. Just don't expect others to be equally reckless.

To answer your question, no, it is not hard to avoid the labeled harmful substances that one knows are harmful.


Friends who have (genuine, medically diagnosed) health problems with gluten or soy would disagree.
