Is Sucralose safe for Diabetics?

Sucralose is added to Bios Life™ to give it a pleasant orange taste. And some people have asked me why bioslife is sweet to taste and is it safe if they have high blood sugar levels.

Sucralose, a low-calorie sweetener, is the sweetening ingredient used worldwide in more than 4,000 food, beverage and nutritional products.

The safety of sucralose has been confirmed by leading medical, scientific, and regulatory authorities around the world including:

the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA),
the Joint (Food and Agriculture Organization/World Health Organization)
Expert Committee on Food Additives,
European Commission’s Scientific Committee on Food,
Health Canada, and Food Standards Australia/New Zealand.

Sucralose is sweet, but the body cannot absorb this sugar and as such, has no effect on your blood sugar levels and is safe for diabetics to consume.
