Do artificial sweeteners contribute to glucose levels?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
No, artificial sugars don't contribute much to one's blood glucose level . But sugar alcohols like mannitol, sorbitol and xylitol can raise blood glucose and cause diarrhea, so one must take note of the type of artificial sweeteners they consume.
