Question:

What sweetener should be avoided if you have cancer? I know, processed white sugar, but I use maple syrup, agave, dates, date sugar, coconut sugar and xylitol.

— Catherine Hardie

Answer:

I will say that there are a lot of, you know, you wanna look at the studies or look at the doctors that we trust, like Dr. Gregor, Dr. Essel. Um, don't just willy-nilly over things. Maple syrup is a good sweetener. I would use that over agave dates. Certainly dates. Sugar, coconut, sugar. I don't use xylitol, I don't use any of the non-sugar sweeteners.
