Low calorie sweeteners provide low or no calories and do not a�ect blood glucose or insulin levels. The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) has recognised that

“Consumption of foods containing low calorie sweeteners instead of sugar induces a lower blood glucose rise after their consumption compared to sugar-containing foods.”4

Reduce sugar intake and try replacing some sugar with low calorie sweeteners in

foods and beverages
