Hi everyone, This is Jeff from Integrated Sports Nutrition. We formulated and produce Red Leaf Pre-Workout Energizer. The supplement facts panels for dietary supplements are a little different than for regular food products. Sorry for any confusion. There is 0 grams sugar and 0 carbs. To be super precise, there is a trace amount of carbs from the natural lime flavoring, but it rounds down to 0 (per FDA labeling guidelines). The sweetness comes from the combo of natural flavoring and the sweetener - which is sucralose. Sucralose is the same thing as Splenda (the yellow packets you see at Starbucks). But we use very little of that, less than the equivalent of 1/5 a pack of Splenda. It's the combo of these various ingredients that makes the product taste sweet - even though it has 0 sugar. It was a painstaking flavoring process that took over 1 year to get right. It's because anything with any green tea or caffeine in it is nasty. So covering that up without using a ton of flavoring and sweetener is a bear. But we did it, using a very minimal amount of flavoring and sucralose. Hope you like it. Feel free to email me at jeff@isnlabs.com with any questions at all. Best regards, Jeff ISN

Brown Rice Syrup and Palm Nectar are the only sweeteners. I do believe Vega now also makes an unsweetened version of the Energizer.

In a hour as I am not home right now so stay tun. I will tell you this however, it is sugarless. As you know it is sweetened with stevia and by far stevia is the best sugarless sweetener I have ever tasted!

It is stevia rebaudiana (leaf) which I believe is the only form of stevia approved by the FDA as a sweetener. I am; however, not too happy with this sweetener right now. Nunaturals changed their supplier and the product is not as thick as before. It easily drips from the stopper and is not as sweet as it used to be.

I don't see xylitol listed on the label and haven't detected any sweeteners in this product. Other ingredients are purified water, citric acid, potassium sorbate, sodium benzoate, and sodium chloride. Thanks for asking because I hadn't noticed the preservatives before. I've been using this product for years.

Other than organic elderberries the sweeteners are different. This one is sweetened with fructose and the organic one is sweetened with organic agave. The non-organic version also has 239 MG of a proprietary blend that is not listed on the organic box. My son prefers the non-organic version while my daughter prefers the taste of the organic one. Ingredients in this one list - Fructose, Purified Water, Vegetable-source glycerin, Natural Raspberry flavor, citric acid. Ingredients in organic version - Organic Agave, Purified Water, Citric Acid, Organic Raspberry flavor

You are more aware than me! As far as I know there is none. I love this sweetener knowing it's natural and secondly it doesn't leave the after taste that some do. Just know that it isn't a cup for a cup. It's much more economical and takes a lot less. I found that about half is equal to a cup of sugar but that's preferential taste.

It's not sweetened. I usually use 1tsp of Agave negtar if I want add sweetner.

The answer from empirical labs was, "The sweeteners are natural fruit and berry extracts which contain no alcohol, no sugar alcohols, nothing synthetic, no MSG."

sucralose- acesulfame potassium. The vanilla is very sweet, the chocolate is just right.

label reads: "Ingredients: Organic 100% Natural Unfiltered Whey Protein". So, I would say no sweeteners added.

This product contains pure stevia, derived from the stevia plant, by a process (I think) of distillation. Someone more knowledgeable than I told me once that this company uses distillation, but some other companies use a chemical process instead to get the final product. Apparently, the chemically-derived stevia has an aftertaste, which is not true of this product.

This product contains only Stevia. It is one of the things I really like about it. Also, it is very strong so you don't need much and a container will last a long time. I have faith in Sweetleaf. I am amazed how many other products contain other sweeteners and ingredients.

The actual sweetener is monk fruit extract, which is supposed to be "Generally Recognized as Safe" but for some weird reason is not (not yet, anyway) widely used. Tastes spectacular, though. I'm diabetic and use it a lot, and I have no reservations at all about using it.

I use the Dymatize Elite Whey Protein Isolate, rich chocolate. I've been on it for about a year and a half now. According to the label, the only sweetener that I can identify is Acesulflame-Potassium. If you Google that ingredient you can get the details. Also, you can contact Dymatize in America by dialing (888) 334-LEAN or (972) 732-1990. Their address is 13737 N. Stemmons Freeway, Dallas, Texas 75234.
