What it is

Allulose is a rare sugar that occurs naturally in small amounts in foods like wheat, raisins, and figs. It is produced commercially by converting fructose using an enzyme.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use allulose as a low-calorie sweetener. It provides sweetness similar to sugar but with fewer calories and does not significantly impact blood glucose levels. It is often found in baked goods, confectionery, and dairy products.

Health notes

In the US, allulose is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA. Studies suggest it is well-tolerated at typical consumption levels and may have benefits for blood sugar control. The Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) and the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) have also evaluated allulose.

Allergen info

Allulose is not derived from any of the FDA's major allergens and does not contain gluten.
