Do your shakes contain sweeteners?Updated 3 years ago

Yes, our CollaSlim shakes contain sucralose.

EFSA has approved the health claims made about xylitol, sorbitol, and sucralose, among others, to help prevent tooth decay, control blood sugar levels and reduce our calorie intake.

Dietitian Emma Carder states: "Research into sweeteners shows they're perfectly safe to eat or drink on a daily basis as part of a healthy diet."

Artificial sweeteners are a really useful alternative for people with diabetes who need to watch their blood sugar levels while still enjoying their favourite foods.

It's been suggested that the use of artificial sweeteners may have a stimulating effect on appetite and, therefore, may play a role in weight gain and obesity. But research into sweeteners and appetite stimulation is inconsistent. Also, there's little evidence from longer-term studies to show that sweeteners cause weight gain.
