Welcome to the world of sugar free joy!
Low Carb Sugar-Free Sweets & Cakes
Artinci was born out of Aarti's and Sumit's (Artinci's founders) abiding love for great-tasting dessert, while helping them stay committed to their health goals as well. As a result, Artinci makes delicious desserts with zero sugar, that are science and evidence-backed.
Aarti and Sumit come from a family of three generations of diabetics. They were themselves diagnosed pre-diabetic in 2012, and right there began a lifelong quest of a healthy, active lifestyle, including healthy swaps in food

All about Sugar and sugar-free
NAFLD often starts silently due to excess sugar like fructose, which the liver converts directly to fat, leading to steatosis without initial inflammation. Progression to NASH involves escalating damage from ongoing sugar overload, inflammation, and fibrosis, doubling diabetes risk in affected individuals. NAFLD Symptoms Early NAFLD (simple fat buildup) is typically asymptomatic, though some notice fatigue, mild right-upper abdominal discomfort, or unexplained weight gain around the midsection.No overt signs appear in most cases until imaging or blood tests detect elevated liver enzymes like ALT/AST. Progression to NASH Sugar-driven NAFLD advances to NASH when fat accumulation triggers liver inflammation and cell injury, fueled by fructose's role in de novo lipogenesis and insulin resistance.This shift occurs in 20-30% of NAFLD cases, worsened by metabolic syndrome; NASH brings persistent tiredness, pain under ribs, and potential fibrosis scarring. Key Stages Table Stage Hallmarks Sugar's Role NAFLD Fat droplets in liver cells; often symptom-free Fructose overload from sweets/drinks sparks initial buildup NASH Added inflammation, ballooned cells, early fibrosis Triggers oxidative stress, immune response; raises T2D odds 2-3x Fibrosis/Cirrhosis Scarring replaces healthy tissue; jaundice, swelling possible Chronic glucotoxicity sustains damage if sugar intake persists https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7001557/ https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/fatty-liver-disease-masld/symptoms-causes/syc-20354567 https://www.livertransplantindia.com/blog/nonalcoholic-fatty-liver-disease/ https://www.pfizer.com/disease-and-conditions/nash
How to reduce sugar intake for reversing fatty liver
Reducing sugar intake, especially fructose from added sources, can reverse fatty liver by cutting liver fat buildup by over 20% in as little as 9 days, as shown in clinical studies.For your Indian diabetes-focused audience, prioritize swaps like stevia in chai over sweets, aligning with low-GI habits. Key Steps Read labels to avoid high-fructose corn syrup in sodas, juices, and packaged snacks; replace with water, herbal tea, or infused water. Eliminate Indian sweets (jalebi, gulab jamun) and sugary drinks like sweetened lassi; limit even 100% fruit juices due to fructose. Cut refined carbs like white rice/maida to under 10% of calories, opting for fiber-rich whole grains. Indian Diet Swaps Use this table for practical, diabetes-friendly adaptations. Avoid (High Sugar/Fructose) Swap With (Low-GI Alternatives) Sugary chai, soft drinks Stevia-sweetened green tea, amla juice White rice, naan Brown rice, millet roti (jowar/bajra) Mithai, biscuits Roasted chana, fresh fruits (pear/apple in moderation) Processed juices Buttermilk (chaas), cucumber salad Sample Daily Plan Breakfast: Oats upma with veggies (no sugar). Lunch: Dal, palak paneer, whole wheat roti, salad. Snacks: Nuts or roasted chickpeas. Dinner: Grilled fish/tofu, brown rice, stir-fried greens.Aim for 50% veggies/fiber, pair with 30-min walks/yoga for metabolic boost. Track progress with doctor via ultrasounds/blood tests. https://www.bestdiabetologistindelhi.com/post/7-day-indian-diet-plan-for-reversing-fatty-liver-disease https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/life-style/health-fitness/health-news/eliminating-this-one-food-for-just-9-days-can-reduce-fatty-liver-and-reverse-damage-as-per-us-research-findings/articleshow/123360949.cms https://geimshospital.com/blog/how-carbs-in-indian-diet-cause-fatty-liver/ https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/life-style/health-fitness/health-news/eliminating-this-one-food-for-just-9-days-can-reduce-fatty-liver-and-reverse-damage-as-per-us-research-findings/articleshow/123360949.cms
Fructose from Sugary Drinks vs. Natural Sources: Impact on Liver Fat and Blood Sugar Spikes
Fructose Metabolism Basics Fructose bypasses key regulatory steps in glycolysis, going straight to the liver where ketohexokinase (KHK) converts it to fructose-1-phosphate, depleting ATP and boosting uric acid. This triggers SREBP1c and ChREBP-β, ramping up fatty acid synthesis—effects amplified 2-3x vs. glucose. Sugary drinks deliver 10-20g free fructose per serving, mimicking HFCS overload seen in NAFLD progression. In contrast, natural sources like apples (6g fructose per fruit) pair it with fiber (4g+), slowing gastric emptying and portal delivery, which curbs hepatic overload. Sugary Drinks: Liver Fat Culprit High-fructose corn syrup (HFCS) in colas and lassi mixes causes 20-30% more hepatic de novo lipogenesis than glucose, per mouse and human trials on high-fat diets. Postprandial fructose spikes triglycerides and visceral fat, creating a NAFLD-diabetes feedback loop common in urban Indians consuming 50g+ daily from beverages. Clinical data links 6 months of sugary drinks to measurable liver fat via MRI, independent of total calories. Natural Sources: Safer Profile Whole fruits limit fructose to 5-10g per serving with antioxidants that blunt inflammation and enhance fat oxidation. A 9-day low-fructose trial in kids cut liver fat despite isocaloric diets, but only when slashing drinks—not fruits. For diabetics, 1-2 low-GI fruits (berries, guava) daily avoid spikes while supporting gut health via prebiotics. Aspect Sugary Drinks Natural Fruits Fructose Form Free (HFCS/sucrose) Fiber-bound Liver Fat Impact +25-50% lipogenesis Minimal (+<5%) Blood Sugar Spike Rapid, insulin resistant Gradual, fiber-moderated NAFLD Risk High (dose-dependent) Low (polyphenol protection) Blood Sugar and Diabetes Link Fructose doesn't raise blood glucose acutely but impairs insulin signaling via hepatic DAG buildup, worsening prediabetes control. In HFD contexts, it heightens glucose intolerance more than glucose alone. Indians with metabolic syndrome see amplified effects from festive mithai sodas. Practical Swaps for Indian Diets Replace Rooh Afza (12g fructose/glass) with jeera water + stevia . Post-meal: 100g papaya (negligible spike) over packaged lassi. Millet khichdi with curd: Stabilizes postprandial glucose without hidden sugars.Aim <25g added fructose daily; track via CGM for personalization. Reversal Evidence Restricting fructose for 9-12 weeks reduces liver fat 20-40% in NAFLD patients, outperforming calorie cuts alone. Pair with your yoga/walking routine for synergy. https://www.jci.org/articles/view/94585 https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8637741/ https://blogs.goodflip.in/diabetes/how-to-live-a-sugar-free-lifestyle-with-diabetes/
