SUGAR SUBSTITUTES
View Chart

Why are some beverages made with sweeteners other than sugar?
Low-calorie sweeteners are used in diet and low-calorie beverages – and in candy, gum, yogurt and other foods – to provide a sweet taste without the calories and carbohydrates that come from sugar and other caloric sweeteners.

Do all sugar substitutes contain the same amount of calories?
Most sugar substitutes have no calories at all because they are not metabolized by the body. Others have some calories but are hundreds or thousands of times sweeter than sugar, meaning it takes only a tiny amount to create the same sweetness as sugar. The result, either way, is that beverages made with these sweeteners have minimal calories.

Why would I choose a beverage made with these kinds of sweeteners?
Some people prefer the taste of beverages with low-calorie sweeteners. Others choose them because they are watching how many calories or carbohydrates they consume either to manage their weight or as part of an overall healthy lifestyle. Also, people with diabetes may choose these beverages because they don't affect blood sugar. People with diabetes should consult their health care provider about which beverages are most appropriate for their individual needs.

How do the various low-calorie sweeteners differ? Are they all safe?
All of the sugar substitutes used in our products have been approved by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration and have been evaluated and approved by numerous independent scientific commissions and regulatory agencies around the world. The American Dietetic Association and the American Diabetic Association say that the use of sugar substitutes is safe and can be a valuable tool for weight management. Both the American Cancer Society and the National Cancer Institute have reviewed independent medical research and determined that sugar substitutes are safe and do not increase the risk for cancer. In fact, no regulatory agency or scientific commission has found a link between the sweeteners we use and any human disease.
