Consuming erythritol can increase the risk of heart attack and stroke due to making platelets more active, potentially leading to blood clots, as per Cleveland Clinic's study in Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis and Vascular Biology.
Past research indicates that high erythritol levels are linked to a twofold increase in experiencing major cardiac events within three years for individuals at high risk of heart disease.
Professional societies recommend sugar substitutes for high cardiovascular risk individuals, yet the safety of erythritol and other alternatives needs further investigation through long-term clinical studies.
