I visited the website to check the ingredients but I just want to check with people that have used this product, are there any artificial sweeteners?

If there are artificial sweeteners, it is not disclosed on the label. It DOES list "sugars"...nothing specific. I did notice that nowhere on the label does it claim to be organic, if you are concerned about that.

All natural, plant-based. Dairy, gluten and soy free abd contains no artificial flavors, colors or sweeteners. You can read the label if your near whole foods.

Brown Rice Syrup and Palm Nectar are the only sweeteners. I do believe Vega now also makes an unsweetened version of the Energizer.

Not sure, I taste delicious, however, it is way to high in calories and sugar for such a small package, I found a better product for before/during/after workout; 100% Natural. contact 913-702-6678

It tasted like artificial sweeteners to me. It had that weird aftertaste that stuff like Nutrisweet or Equal has....

FYI, just got my first bag today and enjoying a cup of coffee. The bag says "100% Pure, Non-GMO" and a video at NutritionFacts.org indicates that this is the "winner" as a "harmless" sweetener. http://nutritionfacts.org/video/a-harmless-artificial-sweetener/

It does sweet. I bought some locally that did not have any sweetener and ended up just swallowing it. The only sweetener it seems to use is sucralose and less than two percent if I am reading the label right. I have used other similar products as I am naturally low on vitamin B12 and this one is the best. I take double the dosage since I am in recovery from chemo.

The only items I have found that don't have the artificial sweeteners are items that are not sweetened, like regular coffees and unsweetened iced teas. :( I think its horrible that they use that junk in so many of their kcups!

I was under the impression they did not use a Sugar sub like Splenda. Splenda is so very bad for us humans ! One more thing I was thinking. It is poor practice to not include all the calories in each bar. Regardless of recipe, amounts vary depending on which flavor you are enjoying. Some folks need and or have to include every calorie they consume, document and be held accountable. Thanks

The nutrition label states 2g of sugars per 23g serving (two scoops) however these are apparently naturally occurring sugars rather than added. These are the only carbohydrates measured according to the label. It specifically shows no artificial sweeteners or flavors, but no explicit claim is made regarding there being no added sugar. I can tell you that the product is not noticeably sweet.

very slight aftertaste, no more so than artificial sweeteners. I got used to it fast and it is only sweetener that is 0 on glycemic index.

Hi everyone, This is Jeff from Integrated Sports Nutrition. We formulated and produce Red Leaf Pre-Workout Energizer. The supplement facts panels for dietary supplements are a little different than for regular food products. Sorry for any confusion. There is 0 grams sugar and 0 carbs. To be super precise, there is a trace amount of carbs from the natural lime flavoring, but it rounds down to 0 (per FDA labeling guidelines). The sweetness comes from the combo of natural flavoring and the sweetener - which is sucralose. Sucralose is the same thing as Splenda (the yellow packets you see at Starbucks). But we use very little of that, less than the equivalent of 1/5 a pack of Splenda. It's the combo of these various ingredients that makes the product taste sweet - even though it has 0 sugar. It was a painstaking flavoring process that took over 1 year to get right. It's because anything with any green tea or caffeine in it is nasty. So covering that up without using a ton of flavoring and sweetener is a bear. But we did it, using a very minimal amount of flavoring and sucralose. Hope you like it. Feel free to email me at jeff@isnlabs.com with any questions at all. Best regards, Jeff ISN

I read the label but, as far as I can tell, unless they are leaving something out, no fake sugar ingredients. But, I have to say I taste something, too, like that artificial sweetener taste. I wonder if we call the company, they will tell us.

Well, Corey I did some research and it appears that you may be on to something. Already purchased a gigantic package of Stevia In The raw, so I will likely ride it out. However, I am now on the lookout for a natural sugar substitute, any suggestions? Someone suggested Sweet Leaf brand but not sure about that either.

I've been able to get a few cans without stevia, but assumed that they were older cans, produced prior to the stevia version. I've been searching all local health food stores and buying what I can of it. If you are right and there are new ones without stevia, that would be wonderful.I've been taking some comfort in the knowledge that the flavors I've enjoyed most are available in an unsweetened version so that I can add my own sugar or agave.

Great observation...we have access to an unsweetened 5# bulk pack. I will be pulling a sample to verify that it is truly a no-added sugar item before listing. If it meets these standards I will direct you to the amazon code. Thank you for your suggestion. (give me till Friday this week to verify) Coleman Supply

You don't. But since supplement does what it is supposed to do I have no reason to question the seller. Right after I got it, I emailed the company about the "too sweet" taste, they offered to take it back and analyze it for me in case I believed I got the wrong product. I did not bother since the powder kicked in at that point. Why do you think it may not be L Theanine?

Andriyev has a point. Protein amount, sugar amount, and calories are listed in the only image of the product. One is unable to view the remaining ingredients, as is the case with some products on various websites when the product image is clicked on. I would appreciate this as well as some of the ingredients listed on the actual package are not very desirable. Stevia would most certainly be a better sweetener choice than sugar and sugar alcohol.
