sugar substitutes and diabetes
Sugar substitutes, also known as artificial sweeteners, are low-calorie or zero-calorie alternatives to traditional sugar that are often used as a replacement in foods and beverages. They are commonly used by individuals with diabetes as a way to satisfy their sweet cravings without impacting their blood sugar levels. These substitutes do not raise blood glucose levels and can be consumed in moderation as part of a balanced diet for people with diabetes.
