People choose to limit their sugar and carb intake for many reasons, including weight loss, disease prevention and interest in maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Almost all of GoLightly’s sugar free candy contains 0 net grams of carbs, making it a good choice for a tasty - and smart - treat. GoLightly is one of the oldest sugar free confections in America. We have years of experience in this segment of the market. An important difference between GoLightly and the competition is GoLightly just tastes better! Why? GoLightly sweetens with Splenda, the revolutionary no-calorie sweetener. There are other sweeteners like Aspartame, Saccharin, Acesulfame-K and Stevia, but Splenda is the tastiest, with no known side effects. It has no aftertaste and has no effect on carbohydrate metabolism. It is safe for diabetics and often commented by diabetics that this tastes like regular sugar candy
