Artificial sweeteners won't affect your blood sugar: study
May 30, 2018 by Serena Gordon, Healthday Reporter
(HealthDay)—Can an artificially sweetened drink or food really satisfy your sweet tooth without raising your blood sugar levels?
That depends on what's in the food or drink, but a new review confirms that artificial sweeteners alone won't cause a spike in blood sugar.
"It's been widely accepted that nonnutritive sweeteners don't raise blood sugar, but there's never been a large-scale study to confirm that," said study co-author Maxwell Holle. He's a Ph.D. candidate in the department of food science and human nutrition at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
