Is Protein Power Mix Diabetic Safe?
Yes, but be aware that it does have carbohydrates and sugars in it, so a diabetic needs to keep an eye on his or her blood sugar levels. The sugar content is four grams of sugar; however Protein Power Mix is made with fructose, an all natural sugar that is derived from fruit, which is much slower burning than sucrose (table sugar). Table sugar is actually a disaccharide, meaning that it has two sugar molecules, so when those sugars are broken down, they enter the blood stream and cause a rise in blood sugar, which in turn causes a rise in insulin, which causes sugar crash. Because Protein Power Mix is made with fructose, which is slow burning and carbohydrates, which are also slow burning, our product is diabetic safe, making it easier for diabetics to monitor their sugar levels more efficiently.
