Diabetic Diet & Blood Gluecose

Providing You with the Best Diabetic Info Around

is there a hot chocolate drink which is not harmful to the diabetic diet?

My guess is no. But worth asking?

Yes. There are sugar free hot chocolate mixes in the supermarket. They are made with Splenda or another artificial sweetener. Chocolate, in its purest form doesn’t have sugar in it, the problem is the sugar added to it to make it sweet.

    You can always make your own. You can even make dairy free ones if you want to element the lactose as well. You can always trade something off.

    Yes, try the "No Sugar Added" ones, and check the nutrition label to make sure it doesn’t exceed 15g of carb per serving, or you split a "regular" over 2 drinks taken at different time.

    I use real hot chocolate.
    I use chocolate syrup in milk and microwave it.

    Just count your carbs as usual .
