To my knowledge, ours doesn't have sucralose in it, only fructose.

I'll double-check with Steve.

Yes, of course you can find one without sucralose but you've usually got to choose between one artificial sweetener or another. Unless you have a preference, go for the one that's lowest on the list. Since all negative studies on art sweeteners are using very high dosages, it is quite safe to assume that consuming trace amounts of any on the market is probably not worth considering.

However, if you don't want to consume them at all, I can't blame you. Your choices become powders sweetened with sugars and those with no flavoring at all. I think ironmind.com sells pure protein powder. My friend drinks it straight, no flavor, because it's disgusting and he thinks it makes him tougher. Hey, he may be right. Those guys at ironmind chuck around some serious weight. They also train in cobweb-filled garages with old rusty weights. Hard core to the end.

But you could buy straight powder and mix it with fruit n' stuff. That would probably be best. We opted for the best tasting "just mix with water" formula we could make and without artificial sweeteners it would be prohibitive, carb wise, to use sugar only, so we've got a very small amount of acesulfame k.

Results will vary. Weight loss may be temporary as exercise and proper diet are required to maintain long-term weight loss and muscle gain.
