Many people wonder, what exactly are sweeteners and how are they different from sugar? While they both provide sweetness, sweeteners are a type of food additive that are often much sweeter than sugar and, unlike sugar, do not affect the blood sugar levels of people with diabetes.
Many of the common sweeteners we use in food and beverages are several hundred times sweeter than sugar and contain no calories. Did you know that most of these are artificial sweeteners? But don’t worry, there are also natural alternatives, such as stevia. We also have Palatyne® Light, a product made with natural ingredients that can be used as a low-calorie sugar substitute. It is also absorbed more slowly than regular sugar. Knowing this, you can switch to Palatyne® Light for better health.
