Question:
If dextrose is in Sucralose, which is okay, then is dextrose okay?

Has anyone tried a Shaklee or other protein drink with dextrose and fructose? I understand that fructose is usually okay... but what about dextrose, which is also in Sucralose? Confused enough yet? I guess maybe I should give it a try and I'll let you all know???    — themperrys (posted on October 7, 2002)

Dextrose is table sugar. Sucralose is made from table sugar; I don't know how, but they take the "sugar" out of it. But stay away from dextrose in any other form.

Dextrose is pure sugar. Sucralose is made from real sugar but it goes through the gi tract undetected and unabsorbed. It has no calories. They are NOT the same. Take care.
