Allulose. Is a rare sugar that’s found naturally in small amounts in foods like figs, raisins, and maple syrup but here’s why WE are using it.
It tastes like sugar, acts like sugar in recipes, but doesn’t spike your blood sugar the way traditional sugar does. Unlike typical sugars, allulose is absorbed by the body but not metabolized for energy. That means it passes through the body with minimal impact on blood glucose or insulin levels. In fact, several studies have shown that allulose can even help reduce post-meal blood sugar spikes, making it a powerful tool for anyone watching their glucose whether for weight management, metabolic health, or conditions like prediabetes or diabetes.
My favorite perk? Allulose helps reduce the net carbs of a product! Whoop whoop! Since your body doesn’t use it like regular sugar, you can subtract it from the total carb count — just like fiber or sugar alcohols — when calculating net carbs.
This is also R3 approved!
The pancake, muffin and brownies mixes were formulated using allulose as well —plus they are gluten free and packed with fiber and protein.
Another win on my weight journey!
