Stop the Sugar Substitute Scams: Why Your "Monk Fruit" Sweetener Is Lying to You
Share
The Harsh Truth About Most Sugar Replacements
You swapped sugar for a "healthier" alternative, but have you checked the label? The truth is, many products marketed as "Monk Fruit Sweetener" are mostly composed of cheap, heavily processed fillers like Erythritol, Maltodextrin, or Dextrose. You're paying for Monk Fruit but getting a bag of bulking agents.
At Vivid Nutrition, we know you deserve better. Our commitment is 100% transparency, which is why we created a product that solves this problem: Vivid Nutrition Pure Monk Fruit Powder.
🔬 What Is Truly In Your Sweetener?
If you see a large bag of sweetener labeled "Monk Fruit," flip it over and look for these common non-monk-fruit ingredients:
-
Erythritol & Polyols: Often causes digestive upset (bloating, gas) in sensitive individuals.
-
Maltodextrin/Dextrose: These are often corn-derived and can spike blood sugar, defeating the purpose of a sugar substitute.
-
Allulose: While gaining popularity, it's often highly processed and mixed in to bulk up the product.
The Vivid Nutrition Promise: Our Pure Monk Fruit Powder is a potent, single-ingredient extract derived from the Monk Fruit. It contains ZERO of the common fillers mentioned above. We made this brand because we couldn't find a clean option ourselves—and now you have one.
