Hey āā Just a bit confused about thisā¦
Iāve been chewing this stuff quite a bit. I just assumed it was sugar freeā¦probably because it says Itās āsugar freeā. Today I glanced at the back and noticed the carb count!
Extra sugar free gum carb count š°
Sugar alchohol. Some people donāt count sugar alcohols, some count them as half because they CAN affect glucose. Each type of sugar alcohol affects everyone differently so itās not a bad to experiment and see which ones affect you. As far as an insulin response, ALL sugar alcohols and artificial sweeteners will cause an insulin response.
Think of it this way, if it can fool your tongue, it can fool your pancreas.
Thatās actually great advice!!! I think Iāll apply that from now on!
thank you for explaining that
Love that. I used to chew gum in the car. I quit because of just this. Carbs in āsugar-freeā
Also, thatās for 100g of gum. Do you chew 100g of gum in a day? Maybe you do, my husband used to.
Thatās true! I donāt thankfully ⦠I think Iām just so used to being ok with the likes of ā2g carb per 100gā labels on things I eat I think. Just trying to be conscious of a carb creep
If anything good can come out of this, its that you are reading the labels for carbs. For that, ā¦you get an A+. way to go!
BUT⦠for buying it, I would have to pull you over and confiscate it. Sorry.
Thatās very wise of you. It can happen so easily . . .
What??? No⦠I can eat just one M&M⦠well one handful I mean⦠well a handful-ish in a bowlā¦ONE BAG maxā¦party sizeā¦
Thanks for highlighting this. Iāve been using extra gum for Keto breath and never checked the carbs. Stinky breath from now on!
