I've read what I can find online but there doesn't seem to be irrefutable proof that insulin spikes when consuming the fake sweetness. Anybody have an opinion?
No opinion just the facts as presented to me by the specialized doctor that works with me to manage my diabetes. Artificial sweeteners DO NOT spike insulin. This has also been confirmed anecdotally by me and my blood glucose meter.
My personal experience and my meter also confirmed this.
My experience is the same-no spikes confirmed by glucose meter.2
