Question from Cynthia
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,
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.
