The REALLY bad news? Pretty much, if it's sweet, it's deadly - no way around that.

That said, according to what I've read (and I've read a shit ton on this, because I HAVE a sweet tooth), the least deadly sweets are (in descending order or preference):

Stevia
Xylitol
Dextrose
...and bringing up the rear, with just a hint of bladder cancer, Saccharin.

If I could get Dextrose or Xylitol in the supermarket, I'd probably be getting those more often. Stevia isn't terribly sweet, and it's a bit fucking slimy.

This is a no-win if you like anything sweet. If it's sweet, it's probably poison.

My gym carries Dextrose. I take 1 scoop during my lifting routine.
