How many grams of sucralose per serving? Why are amounts of the sugar alcohols not listed? Some people have GI intolerance. Thx!

The "Naturals" version does not contain sucralose. It uses the natural sweetener Stevia.

Hi - the label is pictured in the listing here and it indicates that there are 22 grams of carbohydrates and 7 grams of dietary fiber per 70 gram serving (2 scoops). Net carbs, or carbohydrates minus fiber and sugar alcohols would be 15 grams of net carbs. I'm basing this last number on the fact that I don't believe this contains sugar alcohols. But, I could be wrong on that count.

It lists 3gms sugar per serving ( with all the fruit in it there has to be fructose) Stevia is listed but I see no "ose) endings in other ingredients. Extracts are not indicated and the fruit content looks like the real deal

Great observation...we have access to an unsweetened 5# bulk pack. I will be pulling a sample to verify that it is truly a no-added sugar item before listing. If it meets these standards I will direct you to the amazon code. Thank you for your suggestion. (give me till Friday this week to verify) Coleman Supply

I also tasted an artificial sweet flavor. I was concerned because artificial sweetners give me headaches, so I called the number on the label and the woman that answered promised that there were no artificial sweetners or stevia in it. She claimed it was sweetened with apple pectin and pineapple. But there is no sugar content listed and I still wonder about that sweet flavor because I am diabetic. I did not get headaches from it though. I have since started using the Amazing grass green superfood, but it sure does not taste as good!

I imagine the fructose is in several of the natural ingredients. It was not an additional additive, but contained something like say the cranberries, therefore, it had to be listed.

It contains xylitol and sucralose. Xylitol is a "sugar alcohol" common in sugar-free candies and veggies, and is processed from wood or corncobs. Xylitol offers some dental benefits (but it may contribute to diarrhea in people who are prone to it). Sucralose is a very common artificial sweetener (think "Splenda"). Do quick web searches for "xylitol" and "sucralose", as they are both interesting additives. They certainly make the gummies taste good!

probably no grams of sugar as actual sugar such as sucrose or glucose. There will be starch in it that can be degraded into sugar. I do not have the label in front of me, but I doubt that they added sugar to it. The people who would want to purchase this product would not be pleased if it had added sugar. So, it probably doesn't. Be aware that there are only 3 sources of the building blocks required for energy and cellular structures. They are carbohydrates, protein, and fat. To eliminate any of these in a diet is a huge mistake. IMHO. Well I am a biochemist, so my opinion is not that humble.

there is 6gm of sugar and 1.5 gm of fat. No splenda but a dab of sucralose. I say this because sugar is listed as the first ingredient and the sucralose is at the end of the ingredients leading me to believe there is not much of it in the individual cups.

Honestly... cant address full ingredient differences, but Ive used Many kinds including Gatorade... they all do a good job. I use Emergen-C as my primary electrolyte supplement now for one reason... no Sugar. That is a huge issue for maintaining body weight !

Yes, there are 6g of sugar alcohol in a 1/4c. Serving or 12g in a 1/2c. Serving

The nutrition label states 2g of sugars per 23g serving (two scoops) however these are apparently naturally occurring sugars rather than added. These are the only carbohydrates measured according to the label. It specifically shows no artificial sweeteners or flavors, but no explicit claim is made regarding there being no added sugar. I can tell you that the product is not noticeably sweet.

I no longer have the packaging so can't answer that question. I do know the sugars are sugar alcohols. There are some who think these are safe and others who think they are as dangerous as refined sugar, especially for diabetics.

Pure sucralose is said to be 500x - 600x sweeter than sugar depending upon whose info you read, so theoretically, 1/10 of a teaspoon would be a good starting point. There are 48 teaspoons in a cup - 1/10 x 480 would be just shy of a cup. (basically, a small pinch) I think it will be worth experimenting with, since bulk sucralose powder is so inexpensive.

According to the product description page,a serving is 1 piece. There are 12g of carbs per serving. 11.5 of these are sugar alcohols. Total net impact carbs are 0.5.

No aftertaste detected, but, I must say it is so easy to "over-sweeten" with it that sometimes it just overwhelms the palate. I got those teeny little measuring spoons and use about 1/2 of the smallest one, the drop, I think, for my coffee mug. As far as comparing it to sugar, I guess it's similar but it's been so long since I used actual sugar in coffee, I can't say. (I hated sugar in coffee because it took so much and was difficult to dissolve...sucralose is like magic in sweetening power!)

My complaint is Sucralose. Why put this junk in it. To see ingredients see http://www.sgnnutrition.com/ecodrink-daily.html
