Well, CB Supplements is here to bring you all the flavor without the need for bread…..say what?!?! Yes, you heard that correctly. No need for bread.
The key: Stevia Powdered Sugar
The key to this French Toast collagen recipe is Stevia powdered sugar. But, you may be wondering, what exactly is stevia?
The stevia plant has been used for thousands of years and is commonly referred to as a sweet herb. Stevia is also about 200-250 times sweeter than sugar and therefore a little bit goes a long way. And you might be telling yourself, “This is too good to be true”, well, it is true and there are some amazing benefits.
3 Benefits of Stevia
- If you need to control blood sugar, stevia has little to no effect on blood sugar. This study shows how consuming stevia helps control blood sugar and insulin levels after eating. If you have ever felt a crash a few hours after eating, stevia might be your new go-to. Besides, who wants to crash after breakfast. 🙂
- Added sugar leads to a 13 percent increase in calories for the average diet. This means you will be able to use stevia, a 0 calorie extract, to help control unwanted calories and help lead to weight loss. Soooooo, I can eat French Toast and lose weight? Yes, yes you can.
- Some studies show that stevia extract can help improve cholesterol levels. A study found that stevia could help decrease overall cholesterol, reduce bad LDL cholesterol, and potentially increase good HDL cholesterol.
So, it can help regulate blood sugar, lose weight, and improve cholesterol? Yes, and now for this French Toast recipe using collagen!
Note: all our flavored multi collagen supplements use Stevia.
