CANDAREL HELP PLEASE

[janeyf]

I hope you can help me please.

I have just started my pre-op last night. I have been and bought a jar of Candarel and it says on the jar Per 100g - carbohydrates 93.7g of which are sugars 2.9g. I also got the sweetener tablets but I have just looked at the label on them and it says Per 100g - carbohydrates 72.5g of which are sugars
70g WHAAAAT !!!

I am sooo confused. Surely that is an horrendous amount of sugar? Am I right or have I got this wrong ?

Hoping you can help

I use canderel and other substitutes for coffee or tea mind you that is not more than a couple of times a day as I tend to drink marmite ,hot diet vimto or herbal tea since my op, although sweetners are sanctioned on my eating list.
Hopefully that helps and sometimes the labels on items they compare the proteins and sugar content per 100 gram which would be a huge amount !

Stevia is best.
