It is possible to have your treats and be healthy too! In our humble opinion, the better the ingredients, the better the end result in both taste and health. Sugar Free Please have worked hard to perfect recipes for you, made with only 0 glycemic sweeteners and no starchy grains or legumes (they quickly convert to sugar). Every recipe has been developed to stabilize blood sugar levels and be so completely keto and low carb that their snacks will support and enhance any sugar free lifestyle. The founder, June Alexander, has personally eaten a lot of “keto” sweets that took her out of ketosis. The gluten free standard of Sugar Free Please is also different than most. Starchy wheat is not replaced by more starch (think rice, potato and tapioca). They replace it with fibre and protein.  The Glycemic Index of some sweeteners is quite high and therefore not used in their sweet treats.  They stick to Inulin, Erythritol & Stevia.

The Glycemic Index of  Sweeteners

Erythritol: 0          Inulin: 0          Stevia: 0           Coconut Sugar: 35         Maltitol: 36          Dates: 55          Maple Syrup: 55          Honey: 60          White or Brown Sugar: 65

Here’s a list of cornerstones to Sugar Free Please baking:

​Inulin: So good for your digestive system! Inulin ferments quickly, feeding our healthy microflora. Very high in soluble fibre, inulin is a great aid against constipation. As well, all that fibre is bulky and imparts a great feeling of satiety, unlike traditional sugars which often leave us wanting more. A highly efficient cleanser, as inulin passes through the digestive system, it sweeps out toxins, fat, waste and cholesterol particles. Inulin is more viscose than psyllium, so drink lots of liquid with it for great cleansing and appetite suppression. Your heart, digestive and immune systems will thank you for indulging in this awesome sweetness. Another benefit to inulin is that it helps our bodies absorb calcium. 

​Erythritol: Sugar Free Please uses only organic, non GMO erythritol. Arguably the best sugar alcohol, it doesn’t feed pathogens like Candida and it doesn’t raise blood sugar or insulin levels. A powerful antioxidant, erythritol also has antibacterial, oral health enhancing, and weight loss promoting properties, having 0 digestible calories. Erythritol passes through the body without being metabolized. For this reason it not only has zero net calories, but also zero net carbs. And, of course, this means it isn’t likely to cause the rumbly tummy xylitol, maltitol, isomalt and any of the other sugar alcohols can.  

​Stevia: By now we all know stevia is an alternative to conventional sweeteners. Did you also know stevia has been shown to lower blood glucose and insulin levels in diabetics as well as lowering blood pressure? Stevia is expensive in its purest form. Therefore most is cut with carbohydrate-laden additives and/or other sugars. For this reason, some have denied its authenticity as a health food. Sugar Free Please uses pure stevia powder and artificial ingredient- free, organic liquid stevia preparations.
