  • Anyone know about flavored extracts?

    During induction? Like maple, or peppermint?

    i contacted Queens, the manufacturer of the vanilla extract and artificial vanilla extract i use and they said that neither contain any sugars. Perhaps email the company who owns the products in question.

        I contacted Clubhouse who makes all kinds of extracts in Canada. No carbs, no sugar. Yeah! Extracts will be my new best friend. Bought maple and coconut.

          I love the mock danish with banana extract instead of vanilla.

            One thing I would add is that sometimes flavouring extracts are made with a base of alcohol. If so then strictly speaking they ought not to be introduced till the alcohol rung of OWL.
            Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
            Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!

                  They do have a bit of alcohol (vanilla included) - your body probably burns it off in a matter of minutes. However, if you use Ketostix it will give you a false purple (only if you check shortly after using the extract.) I love the banana extract! I keep meaning to check out other flavors.

                    I LOVE extracts. I actually got the idea from Valid Rouge and tried an 'Imitation vanilla butter nut' extract and it is simply DIVINE!!!!

                    I have to try the banana one...i hope I like it, I am very funny about banana flavors...some just dont quit do it for me. LOL. But I will grab some from Walmart tomorrow.
