it’s easy when you just go simple…..meats, fish, fruits, vegetable, dark chocolate, some nuts, call it a day. Too much this free, that free, it’s gotta have other crap and it’s often worse
Thank you so much Dr. Berg🙆♀️👍🏻👍🏻 We love the exceptional insight you share with me and do appreciate it so much everyday🙏 If I may ask, by any chance Could you plz upload this ‘shorts’ with short video version as well? Because the video version ,unlike shorts, has lots of function to save and watch many times. But it is too much work for ya, then never mind ! 😊
Malto is used as a “cut” for some sweeteners that have micro doses. Steviol glycosides (what this product contains) are 300x sweeter than sugar therefore require amounts measured in the single to double digits of milligrams. For human error even in precise measurement, it is more practical to mix it with something benign like maltodextrin so that 1g of white powder contains the proper amount (say for example 2% or 20mg) of the sweetener desired. This is why 1g packets of sucralose have maltodextrin in them as well as pure sucralose is 600x stronger than sugar.
This is even more important in compounds where measuring error can give you an LD50 amount of something. In 2014 the FDA had to crack down on caffeine powder being sold raw because people would use a teaspoon of it and get a blast of 5000mg unexpectedly.
This product in question lists malto (tapioca starch) in the less than 2% range of a 24g serving, so there is less than half a gram at most in it, and it was likely an ingredient included with the steviol glycosides wherever they sourced it.
Thank you. “Contains” is a lousy measure of amount, and starches are better/slower than sugars anyway. Btw wtf caffeine in powder form for home use is madness!
If you’re on Keto, or any other diet, and your health is truly a concern, it’s best to just give stuff up rather than to try and find “cheats.” It’s not that hard after awhile, and the cravings will eventually subside.
This! I lost weight not eating any of these frankenfoods. After I was maintaining my goal weight for a while I let them in. It didn’t take long to start giving me issues. Definitely not worth it!
@@usernameisunavailable8270 it’s wild they can be called a healthy alternative lol I heard somewhere that just cause they say keto friendly there are no rules or laws to putting it on stuff. That’s dangerous for ppl who don’t know to be careful.
I’ve been watching Dr. Berg’s videos for several months now, and I’ve noticed that just about anytime I have a question about the keto diet or a specific vitamin deficiency, health condition, etc., one of his videos pertaining to that exact question will somehow magically pop up on my YT feed as a recommended video; even if it’s a video that’s a few/several years old. (That’s even when I haven’t done any kind of YouTube or web search of any kind about it.) For example, yesterday I was questioning whether I should gradually wean myself off of sugar or just completely quit all at once, and his video from a few years ago came up in the afternoon, advising that it’s best just to stop, cold turkey.
I literally just bought this *exact* brownie mix last night and was planning on making it today after work, and then he makes this video about it. It’s starting to get a little eerie! 😂
Thanks for the heads-up, Dr. Berg! Ingredient lesson learned!
I always read the ingredients, instead of believing the no sugar labels. But it was so helpful to know what modified tapioca starch.. woww im speechless
I wish it was easier to sue these kind of companies for false advertising. That would obviously mess with your diet and health if you believed their labels.

Everywhere you look there is corruption. Thanks for pointing out a product that is false advertising.

The 3d printing of fake food made from micro plastics disguised as food is the future and It’s sad
@@Jennifer-gr7hnyou got to watch the dark chocolate too because they’ll sneak some bad sugars in there as well

These “healthy” alternatives are the most processed foods of all!

I agree. But if you insist on a cheat meal and kicking yourself out of ketosis, mine as well opt for the real sugar version.

Thank you Dr Berg ! ❤
It’s also in many health supplements! You’re absolutely right. Thank you so much, Dr Berg 🙏🏻
yeah, like “magnesium stearate”
Thank you so much, Dr Berg! ❤❤❤
Well said Dr Berg!

Wow Thank you Dr Berg it’s quite an ingredient to watch out for..😊
It’s amazing how they disguise it under other “fancy names”. Thanks for your helpful reminder, Dr Berg 👍🏻
1. I laughed out loud when you held up that box! 👍😂
2. It’s like a sight-gag in a comedy satire!
3. But it’s true!
Thanks for sharing Doc.
Thank you for keeping us informed as always!❤

Class action?!!
Thank you for keeping us informed Dr Berg.❤️
Thank you for that awesome catch! I would not have known what that ingredient was, even if I was reading it on the box…❤
