A sweetener which is found in nature and is often added to diet products, particularly for the ketogenic diet, can lead to clogged arteries and strokes, according to a new study.  People who had the highest level of the sugar substitute erythritol in their blood were found to have double the risk for stroke, blood clot or death compared to those with the lowest level.  Erythritol is an ingredient in the sweetener Truvia.
