According to new research, sucralose may work together with glucose to stimulate the release of a protein that promotes a feeling of fullness. A synergistic effect between sucralose and glucose was observed to trigger the release of the appetite-suppressing hormone glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), say scientists from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases. Scientists say it’s too early to draw any firm conclusions for everyday food formulations, with more research needed on the effects of different low-calorie sweeteners in diet sodas. In addition, researchers say more investigations should focus on how this synergistic effect may influence metabolism and weight.
