I've tried a few of the alternative natural sweeteners myself. Here's my take.

Xylitol is great, but you must take a few weeks to build up your GI tolerance for it. It's not something you can start eating a lot of right away without GI issues possibly cropping up. You start at a few teaspoons per day in something you like to sweeten, and build up from there. Xylitol is probably the best crystalized sugar alternative I've tasted.

What on earth are you sweetening that you would use several teaspoons a day? Just curious. I just don't use that much of any sweetener. Even 1/4 tsp of Xylitol did a number on my GI. But then as I said, I'm ultra sensitive to all sugar alcohols for decades.
I do agree Xylitol tastes best of all, but I just can't use it.
