    I'm currently working on a video on these two studies in particular. My thesis is since the fasted blood levels of the sugar alcohols are going to be highly dependent on their pharmacokinetics, then the hydration rates and the renal clearance will play an enormous role on their concentrations. Dehydration and improper kidney function will certainly be correlated to increase cardiovascular risk which may account for some if not all of the increase risk seen with the sugar alcohols

      For sure, it's the redistribution of water that is increasing clotting (thickens). Xylitol pulls water from your gut. Just makes sense. Drink more water when you use it.

      "The dose makes the poison"
      Gum has about 1-3 gm of xylitol per piece, far far less than the 30 gm they used.
      More studies would definitely be needed, and to understand what is the maximum safe dose if it does indeed prove to increase clotting (in everyone, or is it limited to those with heart disease?)

My throat infections and dental blackening stopped they feel a lot smoother now but I am still gonna wait a proper study about consumption of it. They should do a double binded study with people who have similar health conditions one using sugar plus xylitol,one sugar only and one only xylitol to see if it increase any risk. Because people who consume too much xylitol is two spectrum they either drink a lot of diet soda or they are on keto diet.

    I'm sure you know this, but I"ll put it here anyway.
    As I understand it, heart disease aka: Hardening of the Arteries occurs where fat, cholesterol etc, stick to the sides of the arteries restricting blood flow.
    This is caused by insulin spikes which rapidly (measured in minutes) deforest the hair follicles that line the inside of your arteries. These hairs act like a non-stick coating, preventing the sticky crap from collecting on your artery walls.
    THE GOOD NEWS: the forest of these hair follicles regrow in a few hours (6-12) providing you don't have another insulin spike, which will start the regrow clock all over again.
    So, before I watch the video... does Xylitol cause an insulant spike?

    • @patusoro4781
      @patusoro4781 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Looks like Xylitol doesn't cause an insulant spike. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22832597/
      HOWEVER - After watching the video, I agree this study isn't great and people who crave sugar, seeking out Xylitol may already be in a bad situation.

(So it being linked to heart disease isn't a surprise to me.) My posts have saved several people from surgery--all they had to do is stop eating xylitol and the pain went away permantly!

  • @Akizurius

    Vitamin C improves blood clotting too... Or maybe just too low levels of it stop blood from clotting properly? I'm not sure how exactly it works but I've been dealing with random nosebleeds for years until I discovered that simple vitamin C fixes it. If I didn't take vit C for a week and be in a room with low air humidity for a few hours I'd be almost guaranteed to have a nosebleed. Now I wonder if xylitol would actually help with that the same way vitamin C does. The point is its great to know how various substances affect your body. Something that can be bad for one person may be good for another or something that seems unimportant may actually significantly improve your life. Xylitol may be a way to cut down on sugar but as with everything it may be beneficial for some people and bad for others.

      I didn't throw my xylitol gum in the trash -- and hence didn't need to retrieve it -- but I did look at the package and each piece of gum contains around 1g of "sugar alcohol", and the only sugar alcohol in it is xylitol. Assuming the test subjects peaked at 800μM and assuming that the peak value is proportional to the dose (yes, it's a big assumption, but the study didn't measure dose response), then the 1g of xylitol in the average piece of gum would be just under the 30μM threshold where there is increased concern. Even if the study results are borne out, it seems that a few pieces of xylitol gum separated by at least a few hours would pose only minimal risk, at least to a healthy person.

    While it is hard enough for the lay person to translate the strength and reliability of these types of studies into action, it's only half the battle. Xylitol has documented dental and digestive benefits. Perhaps a video on how to weigh uncertain science that points to negative effects with perhaps more certain science on positive effects. Covering things like magnitude of effect, reliability of data, and how to mash these together across multiple studies to get a reasoned course of action would be great.

    30 g of xylitol is a lot-- if your main source is mints and gum, as is the case with me. With the mints and gum I buy (mainstream brands) it get 1 g per usage (Mints: 0.5 g in one mint, and I take 2, or 1 g per piece of gum, and I take one). Counting up my daily consumption of these, I'd rarely go over 8 g per day, and never more than 10. Unless you sprinkle a lot of it on food or cook with it, 30 g is high. I'd be interested in where the 30g figure came from.
    Now that I think of it, 30g could be a figure typical of xylitol use in a circumstance where no sugar is available. Like in WWII, and residents of Scandinavian countries were blocked by German U boats from importing sugar from the Caribbean. So they resorted to tapping their birch trees and creating xylitol crystals. They used it as a sugar replacement. The first studies finding reductions in dental cavities are based on data from these countries during this period.
    But these days, I really wonder how many people cook with, or otherwise sprinkle on xylitol like sugar. I believe in xylitol, but I don't use it that way. Just the mints and gum, 5-8g per day. And my understanding is this 5-8 g per day is enough to reduce the rate of getting dental cavities.
