    Hi David,

    I have both your books which are very enlightening! I haven't found mention of the sweetner 'Lo Han Guo' in either of your books and wonder if you have heard of this? It's used in some whey protein powders along with stevia. As it comes from a fruit I'm thinking it probably does contain fructose but can you confirm this for me please.

    Thanks,

    Anna.

    Hi Everyone.....(as I haven't heard from David just yet)

    Just curious if anyone on the forum has heard of the sweetner Lo Han Guo? If so do you know if it contains fructose?

    Many thanks,

    Anna

    Hi Anna,
    found some information on the internet " A luo han guo contain fructose which equals 50-80 grams of sugar. One glass of luo han guo mixture containing 0.1 grams of fructose content."
