Wholesome Sweeteners 12-Ounce Allulose Sweetener, Zero Calorie Sugar Substitute, Keto Friendly, Non GMO, Non-Erythritol, Gluten Free & Vegan Sweetener, 1 Pack

I bought Wholesome Allulose after reading that it may naturally elevate GLP-1 levels, and I figured it was worth a try—especially since I’m not interested in jumping on the GLP-1 injection train. I’ve been adding about a teaspoon to my coffee each morning, and I’m really impressed. I didn’t notice any taste difference at all, which is huge for me—I’m very sensitive to stevia and artificial sweeteners and usually dislike them. This had none of that fake sugar taste, which is a major win. Another plus: allulose measures about 70% as sweet as regular sugar, so you may want to use just a bit more if you’re replacing sugar in a recipe. The conversion is actually provided on the package for baking. But for daily use like coffee or tea, it’s been perfect. So far, I’m happy with it and will definitely keep using it! I’ll update if I notice any difference in my sugar craving after longer term use. Another reviewer made some misinformed claims that I’d like to debunk about this product from a scientific perspective: Claim #1: “Made from corn = bad” Reality: Yes, most commercially available allulose is made from corn starch—specifically, non-GMO corn in the case of reputable brands like Wholesome. But this is not a bad thing. Many natural ingredients are derived from agricultural sources via enzymatic or fermentation processes. Corn is a widely used starting material for natural sweeteners (including erythritol, xylitol, and allulose) simply because it’s abundant and scalable. Allulose is chemically identical regardless of the source—whether it’s extracted from figs or created via enzymatic transformation from corn. The source doesn’t affect its structure or safety. Claim #2: “This is highly processed / unnatural!” Reality: Let’s address the processing: Allulose is naturally present in small amounts in foods like jackfruit, raisins, and figs—but it’s incredibly inefficient to extract at scale. The enzymatic process that turns corn starch into allulose mimics what happens in nature, and it’s no more “unnatural” than how cheese is made from milk with rennet or how kombucha is brewed. As for “GMO enzymes”: this refers to enzymes produced by microorganisms that have been genetically modified to produce large quantities of a specific enzyme. These enzymes are purified and removed from the final product, meaning there is no GMO material in your sweetener. This is common practice in many foods and pharmaceuticals (like insulin, for example). Claim #3: “It’s just overpriced corn sugar!” Reality: Allulose is not sugar—not in how your body processes it. • It’s a rare sugar that isn’t metabolized the same way as glucose or fructose. • It has virtually no calories and does not raise blood sugar or insulin levels, which makes it appealing for people with diabetes or those on low-carb diets. • It may even support GLP-1 activity, as some early studies suggest. Yes, it costs more than regular sugar—because it is much more expensive to produce. You’re paying for a functional, low-impact sweetener, not a commodity sugar. Claim #4: “The label is deceptive and hard to read” Reality: Most reputable brands (like Wholesome) clearly state that their product is made from non-GMO corn. It may be in smaller text on the back due to packaging design, but this is standard. If a customer has specific ingredient concerns, checking the back label is common practice.

I've been looking for a tasty sugar alternative for YEARS. This stuff has no weird aftertaste and doesn't spike your blood sugar. It's not as sweet as sugar 1-to-1 but you can use as much as you want to get to the same level. I'm no longer pre-diabetic after using this to replace all my usual sugary drinks and whatnot.

This is the most awesome no-calories sweetener ever. It's the first time (well, since they stopped making Just Like Sugar) that I've had a no-cal sweetener that I can actually use without gagging. I am very sensitive to any kind if aftertaste in sweeteners and I think I have tried the all. I recently tried another that has allulose but includes something else and there was a slight cooling effect afterwards when I'd take a breath. I was ready to give up and then I found this! I removed a star strictly because of the cost. PRO: + NO aftertaste, no cooling sensation, no bitterness. I tasted some of this from a spoon and knew that I would love it. + Single ingredient & non-GMO + Was safety sealed CONS: - Price, price, price. I wouldn't mind the price if I could stretch out my use of this. Because this is not as sweet as sugar. I personally don't agree with the 70% as sweet- maybe 50%. I would think of the cost as being another healthcare expense & worth it, but... I can't afford this one on a regular basis. I have noticed: - The consistency is VERY watery. I had to be careful not to spill any. - This is sweeter in my coffee when I use cream - even a little cream - than if not. I don't use cream in my tea and this is not nearly as sweet when I use it. - If I use this and add even 1/4 teaspoon of regular brown sugar or Panela, the sweetness factor goes up to about 85% as sweet as sugar (IMO). - The first day I used this, I had about 4 Tbls total for my various coffee drinks through the day. I did not have any of the bloating or other GI issues that I've heard about. I do like this, but I have found a powder version that is much more affordable. I need to use too much of this for this bottle to last even a week - even if I add some brown sugar. I am glad that I tried this. I now know that I like allulose and can tolerate it.

I really like WholesomeT-80 because it doesn’t change the taste of food or drinks. It sweetens well without any aftertaste, and it caramelizes nicely, just like real sugar. It’s a great alternative when you want sweetness without compromising flavor or texture. I’ll definitely keep using it

price is little over. but good for your health

This is fantastic! We recently got a slushie machine and there needs to be a high level of sugar content in order for it to work properly but didn’t want to add sugar syrup into the mix to make it a little bit better for us. Using this worked a treat, the flavour wasn’t too sweet so was a nice subtle addition into the drink and it worked, it made a perfect slushie! Have tried other sugar substitutes in the past and most have a very sweet flavour which works well in some instances but for our purpose this has been the best one we have tried. The great thing is didn’t need to use too much so can see this lasting many months before we need a replacement of it but will buy it again when needed.

No cal and tasteless

It's not as sweet as sugar but it tastes better than Stevia with no weird aftertaste. I've actually lost weight since swapping the sugar in my coffees for this, it may be expensive but in the long run it is far cheaper than treatment for obesity and heart issues.
