01

Five-Minute Sugar-Free Label Check

Use the same order every time so front-label claims do not control the decision.

  • Confirm serving size and servings per container.
  • Read total carbohydrate, total sugars, and added sugars together.
  • Find every sweetener in the ingredient list.
  • Check sugar alcohol, fiber, allergens, and the portion you expect to eat.
  • Photograph or save the label if it becomes a repeat purchase.
