In this referenced video, I discuss a recent article that implicated Erythritol in cardiac risk. I discuss what erythritol is. I discuss endogenous production of erythritol through the pentose phosphate pathway. I discuss how erythritol can be affected by various health conditions and can be a marker for poor health. I discuss the article author's assertion that erythritol consumption can increase cardiovascular risk. I discuss my skepticism of the validity of the conclusions. I discuss the difference between causation and correlation.
