Clinical studies have shown that SPLENDA® Brand Sweetener (sucralose) does not affect blood glucose levels, insulin, or HbA1c. A 2003 study, published in Journal of the American Dietetic Association, documents the results of a 5-center clinical trial in persons with Type 2 diabetes who consumed approximately 3 times the maximum estimated mean daily sucralose intake for 3 months without effect on blood sugar levels, HbA1c, or on C-peptide (the gold standard biomarker for insulin).

Thank you, I don't use it but useful to know that I can!

Not the whole story - sucralose might not effect BG or insulin, but it disrupts gut bacteria and there is controversy about the fact that it doesn't degrade and how harmful it will be in the environment longer term?

My doctor told me to stay away from any kind of sweeteners whether it is Spenda or Stevia.
