Today, while perusing a new grocery store ad, I noticed that wines that
used to be sold in 1.75 liter bottles are now in 1.5 liter bottles.

Thinking about wine got me thinking about wine spritzers, and it
occurred to me that they could be made with a very dry wine, and
sweetened with simple syrup made with allulose for a keto friendly
beverage. Four ounces 13.5% sauv blanc + 1 ounce keto simple syrup + 7
ounces sparkling water = a 12 ounce beverage that is 4.5% alcohol, which
is about the ABV of light beer, with less than half the digestible carbs.

Or one could stop drinking altogether.

Sounds like an ingredient in a 'concoction' as you are wont to say.

I had to look it up; it is banned in Canada for safety reasons.

From the Wikipedia entry: " allulose can result in unpleasant
symptoms such as flatulence, abdominal discomfort, and diarrhea.["

Especially when he quotes from his book.

Isn't that what everyone wants from a "wine spritzer"? LOL A wine
spritzer is merely wine combined with a spritz of club soda. Hence the
name "spritzer".

Why is it that the Canadians here are such boring persons?
The only exception is when Dave Smith posts about Big Niece. I miss the
Big Niece stories. They are the only thing of value about ossifer Dave.

There's no question that a significant percentage of persons do
experience GI discomfort above a certain level of consumption of
allulose. The study below suggests limiting to 2 tablespoons at a time,
and 4 tablespoons per day (for a 60kg person).

"In conclusion, a major aim of our study was to compare the digestive
tolerance associated with D-allulose consumption throughout the day, in
the aforementioned two manners. We identified the maximum single dose of
D-allulose to be 0.4 g allulose/kg·BW for occasional ingestion and the
maximum total daily intake for this sugar substitute to be 0.9 g
allulose/kg·BW for regular ingestion. In other words, the maximum single
dose of D-allulose for adults with a mean body weight of 60 kg was 24 g,
and up to 54 g can be consumed daily without any side effects."

There are also documented positive effects, in addition to the aesthetic
pleasure.

"Multiple comparison analysis showed that d-allulose supplementation in
overweight or obese subjects led to a significant decrease in body fat
mass, BMI, and body fat percentage. In comparing results before the
study and during the follow up to the study, d-allulose supplementation
was observed to reduce body weight, body fat mass, BMI, and body fat
percentage. In addition, multiple comparison analysis of CT scan results
indicated that the total abdominal fat area and subcutaneous fat area
were significantly decreased following high allulose supplementation. In
comparing results before the study and during the follow up to the
study, low dose d-allulose reduced the total abdominal fat area only;
however, high dose d-allulose reduced both the total abdominal fat area
and subcutaneous fat area."
source-- https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5852736/

"...our findings suggest that 5% dietary d-allulose led to the
normalization of the metabolic status of diet-induced obesity by
altering lipid-regulating enzyme activities..."

"...these results indicate that the d-psicose diet decreases
lipogenesis, increases fatty acid oxidation, and enhances 24 h energy
expenditure, leading to d-psicose’s potential for weight management."

What's so interesting? She's one of many people he hates. She eats a
lot. Oh, what wonderful entertainment!
