Vegetable glycerine
QUESTION:
Debra, I know you recommended vegetable glycerine at one time, but withdrew the recommendation because you became suspicious or got some contrary info.
Is there any update on that? I have used veggie glycerine as a sweetener, and liked it because it had a neutral taste (unlike stevia) and did not cause sugar rush and those kinds of phenomena.
But I have always wanted to know more about the safety of this substance--as specifically as possible.
Perhaps you have since done further research? Or perhaps we have some knowledgeable readers who have a full scoop on this substance.
Any data?
Best,
Cynthia

DEBRA'S ANSWER:
My previous comments on vegetable glycerin are at Sweet Savvy: Vegetable Glycerin.
I haven't done any further research, but I am even more convinced than before of the importance of eating WHOLE FOODS, which vegetable glycerin is not.
Debra :-)
