artificial sweeteners

great article on www.mayoclinic.com talks about sugar alchols and that 10 gms count as a carb exchange on the diabetic diet. So much for subtracting them In the "net carbs" http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/diabetes-diet/NU00592

I really don't understand about the subtracting from the carbs and all, to me a carb is a carb is a carb. It goes on my body just the same as any ole carb. Thanks for the article, they always have nice things to read. Darlene

I totally agree, if it has a calorie it counts in my book, whether is it sugar or a substitute, fat, protein or carb, it is all important.
