Splenda's First 2 Ingredients are DEXTROSE (aka GLUCOSE) and Maltodextrin. That is NOT good for a Diabetic! They added those 2 in for bulk, but what bone heads they were to add those two! Spenda boxes/packets now only say "suitable for diabetics" not "RECOMMENDED for Diabetics"!

Bad idea, bad advise. It should be illegal to promote poison especially to people who are already sick

@Villageking7 oh contrare- Stevia only being a choice because cocacola and cargill muscled it through the fda! how much do you trust them?

how can a nutritionist, a supposed health expert, suggest using poisonous sweeteners to people? You spent 85% of the video explaining the toxic side effects! At what point does your programed corporate education click off and your common sense click in?

She talks about all the things people with diabetes want to hear(and then some). So this is a good video.

Why are you promoting Toxic chemicals?

Most of these sweeteners are toxic and should not be used as a sugar subsititue at all! Additionally, many of the packets of splenda, nutrasweet, and others contain maltodextrin which is a sugar (used as filler). By law the manufacturer can list it as zero carbs since it is less than 1 gram. So they are still getiing calories as well. It is ultimately designed to make people sick, go on drugs, and lead toa potentailly earlier demise. Stevia is better choice.

i could read off a card too and memorize facts.
Those substitutes are poison (except Stevia, it is derived from a herb, and it IS NOT artificial), the rest are proven carcinogens in clinical trials in mice. Please refrain from suggesting people from consuming this crap. Thanks.
