Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This product can only claim "low glycemic" because of the 18 grams (!) of Erythritol used... which as far as sugar alcohols go, is slow releasing (hence, low glycemic) and doesn't have the ill-effects of other sugar alcohols. However, that's 18 grams in one little bottle PLUS another 11 grams of sugar - Dextrin is listed on the label (which breaks down into pure glucose, albeit slightly slower than actual glucose).
That's 29 grams of sugar in ONE container! This product is NOT low sugar. It contains 73% of the recommended DAILY intake of sugar for non-diabetics (40g is the recommended intake for ALL sugars). 29 grams is the equivalent of a little over 7 teaspoons of sugar!
If you're trying to lose weight and/or are diabetic, please read labels very carefully. Companies are getting so good at hiding sugars - to the point of labeling something "sugar free" even when it technically isn't.
