The Glycemic Index Laboratories located in Toronto, Canada, performed tests on four different sweeteners to demonstrate the postprandial (after consumption) blood glucose and insulin responses. The study consisted of 15 healthy subjects between the ages of 18 and 75. As demonstrated in the chart below, Swerve is non-glycemic and does not raise blood glucose (blood sugar) levels. Swerve Blood Glucose Blood glucose levels after the non-nutritive sweeteners were significantly lower compared to sucrose at 15, 30 and 45 minutes. Glucose levels were also significantly lower after both Swerve products compared to high potency sweetener at 15 minutes. At 90 and 120 minutes, the blood glucose levels were significantly higher after the three non-nutritive sweeteners compared to sucrose (p<0.001). Additionally, Swerve has been tested for its effect on insulin levels after consumption. The chart below demonstrates the insulinemic responses of the four sweeteners tested. Swerve has an extremely minimal impact. – See more at: Swerve Insulin Postprandial incremental serum insulin measurements after four different sweeteners balanced for sweetness. Results are expressed as Mean±SEM, and using ANOVA for main effects of time and test meal and the time×meal interaction.
