point value for sweetners?

[sa2010]

For all those on WW what is the point value for a packet of something like splenda? i have been trying to figure it out and i just am at a loss...it really can't be 0 can it

Yes, a packet of Splenda has 0 points. It has no calories, no fat, no fiber... therefore: no points.

The reason it's 0 calroies, is because it's a chemical your body cannot absorb. If it's not digested, merely passed along. the end outcome is basically 0 calories.

I don't beleive every single thing I read, but I read somewhere there have been cases of people whos bodies have adapated and at least partially absorbed splenda. I'd recommend checking it out if it interests you.

dont use splenda its made from sugar but sweeted with a clorine base.

use stevia. its from a plant you can get in powder or liquid.
