Monk Fruit Sweetener

Another alternative to sugar is monk fruit sweetener. In fact, it is from 150 to 200 times sweeter than regular sugar. This makes it a great choice to cut your intake of calories. However, keeping in mind that commercially available products would be processed and contain some other sweeteners. Thus, you need to read to label carefully before choosing. Also, some monk fruit sweeteners might also have an aftertaste, so be cautious when adding it into baking and cooking, particularly when you are sensitive to the flavoring. [9]
