Which formulation of Syndion should I use for the Specific Carbohydrate Diet (SCD)?
Syndion-SF is the same as Syndion only without sucralose, sodium benzoate, and EDTA. It contains stevia and xylitol as sweeteners replacing the sucralose. Both formulations contain a small amount of fructose and one of the vitamins is derived from corn starch, although Syndion tests to be free of corn protein. Syndion-SF was formulated for those who want a sucralose-free formulation. Neither formulation is tailored to the SCD nor would either be preferable to the other for use with the SCD. Syndion capsules will be available in 2010 and are SCD compliant.
