    all you coffee drinkers out there, do you use equal, splenda, or sweet and low to sweeten your coffee....i was wondering if this stuff would affect a diet to any degree. thanks for the replies

    Splenda indeed. Negligible impacts on nutrition on artificial sweeteners, unless you eat 100+ packets daily.

    coffee is the only other think i drink beside water...using a good flavored kind witha few equals kills any sweet cravings i would have.

    yea crystal lite is another good one, for me it's almost too sweet so i can cut it with more water...get more out of the servings and still kill the sweet craving..oh yea and fruit 2 O isnt bad either.

    i know rambo already answered...and he's right, but i'll say coffee will spike your insulin levels....if you're adding heaping spoons of sugar and flavored creamers etc...like a lot of people do...

    drinking it black, or with artificial sweetener will not touch your insulin levels

    No sweetner most of the time. When I use swwener its usually Splenda. If not, Sweet and Low. Either has 1g carb.
