La postura de la la Asociación Americana de Diabetes sobre los edulcorantes no calóricos (ENC) establece que:

 

  • La Administración de Drogas y Alimentos (FDA) ha revisado exhaustivamente los ENC para garantizar su seguridad y los aprobó para el consumo del público en general, incluidas las personas con un diagnóstico de diabetes.
  • Los ENC tienen el potencial de reducir la ingesta general de calorías y carbohidratos si se usan en lugar de endulzantes calóricos sin compensar con calorías adicionales de otras fuentes. 
  • Las investigaciones respaldan que los ENC no producen un efecto glucémico.

 

ABSTRACT

 

“A healthful eating pattern, regular physical activity, and often pharmacotherapy are key components of diabetes management. For many individuals with diabetes, the most challenging part of the treatment plan is determining what to eat. It is the position of the American Diabetes Association (ADA) that there is not a “one-size-fits-all” eating pattern for individuals with diabetes. The ADA also recognizes the integral role of nutrition therapy in overall diabetes management and has historically recommended that each person with diabetes be actively engaged in self-management, education, and treatment planning with his or her health care provider, which includes the collaborative development of an individualized eating plan. Therefore, it is important that all members of the health care team be knowledgeable about diabetes nutrition therapy and support its implementation”.
