Are you saying there aren't sweeteners without glucose?

There absolutely no sugar in it ..they an artificial sweetener called Aspartame

Na lie there are many artificial sweeteners that are not sugars ...the one used in Coke zero is called Aspartame , it's made from a petroleum derivative

Cut out or reduce your sugar intake to the barest minimum, or you’re heading for diabetes.
Increase your water intake.
One bitter kola per day will be good for you.
Also, have your blood sugar level checked.
I can't love this moniker less. The person behind this moniker post mostly without wigs or weavon on her head.

That wig or weavon cover most of our girls brains.







*please don't switch to the other moniker to blast me.

Your research might be a bit distorted by the negative conspiracy theories arou d artificial sweeteners.

aspartic acid and phenylalanine are the 2 main ingredients of Aspartame. Theses are ingredients you would find in many fruits and foods you consume daily.

You would need to drink 15 bottles of diet Coke in a day before it can become harmful

In it's synthetic form, I'm not so sure about it.
Re: Is "Zero Sugar" Coke Without Sugar? by Ten06(m): 1:26pm On Sep 12, 2021
What is in that coke is more dangerous than sugar. It is call aspertame.

Dozens of studies have linked aspartame — the world's most widely used artificial sweetener — to serious health problems, including cancer, cardiovascular disease, Alzheimer's disease, seizures, stroke and dementia, as well as negative effects such as intestinal dysbiosis, mood disorders, headaches and migraines.15 Nov 2020

I don't trust Coca Cola bottling company at all.
Zero sugar, no sugar and the one with sugar are all sweet, just different levels of sweetness. grin

This is my University project work
I worked on how zero Coke and normal Coke raises the body sugar level and then comparing them to glucose (standard)...

There's no sugar.
Other sweetners are used to improve the taste.
Sugar isn't the only material that is sweet.
But why still deceive buyers when they know sweetners such as aspartame, acesulfame-k n saccharin are added
Re: Is "Zero Sugar" Coke Without Sugar? by ogolad(m): 1:27pm On Sep 12, 2021
I have full knowledge of the company, and to be honest there is no sugar at all in Zero Coke, instead it is sweetheing that's used.

Yeah.

Take for example, honey.

It is said that zero sugar coke uses Aspartame rather than sugar.

Aspartame is still not good. For the love of the health, it's better to reduce these soft drinks intake.

Artificial sweeteners are used, not sugar. Sugar isn’t the only thing that tastes sweet. Artificial sweeteners are no good for your body either, they cause other problems

They used it to deceive gullible Nigerians because they know adults in Nigeria detest sugar.
That’s how they lied that Amstel Malt has low sugar till someone sued Nigeria Breweries. Now Amstel Malt tastes like Stout

Wrong!!!

Sugar (Cane Sugar) is not even as sweet as certain other plant sweeteners like Stevia! They are also healthier than Sugar.

Zero written on it is just a marketing strategy. There are lot of other sweet content that their by-product is sugar, so practically, it contains sugar, tho one could say less sugar.

No sugar in it but the sweetener used is as bad as sugar if not worse

You can dry and grind Dabino and use it as a sweetener just the way you use sugar.

I'll just settle for LA casera Lipton flavour now. I'm certain that one has very low sugar.

The Aspartame in it made it a turn off for me cause the research on the long term damage of that ingredients hasn't waived away my suspicions.

Pls madam can I get a link on this aspartame research because the last time I checked about aspartame I discovered that it has no effect on the body since the digestive system cannot break it down it goes into the body and comes out as a waste product. It is only added to product to give it that desirable taste. Pls you know we learn everyday. Thanks.
