MERISANT BRANDS ::: EQUAL
Using Equal® instead of sugar in your beverages or
recipes is a small change that can make a big difference. It’s
completely safe, too. The sweetening ingredient in Equal®
(aspartame) is used by millions of consumers every day for
over 25 years, and has been proven safe by over 200
independent studies. A convenient packet of Equal® is
perfect for coffee, iced tea and other drinks.
- Equal®'s sweetening ingredient is aspartame, which breaks down to components commonly found in milk, meats, fruits and vegetables. Aspartame has been in use for twenty-five years.
- Each zero-calorie packet quickly dissolves in hot or cold drinks and sweetens like two teaspoons of sugar.
- You’ll find Equal® packets on the table at your favorite restaurants and coffee shops, and at grocery, drug or club stores.
- Equal® is appropriate for diabetics because it does not affect glucose or insulin levels. It is recognized as an acceptable part of a diabetes meal plan by both the American Diabetes Association (ADA) and the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF).
- Equal® has an indefinite shelf life if stored away from heat and humidity. However, to ensure the highest quality product, all Equal® products are now produced with a Best By date stamped on them.
