Yes, sugar-free Jello pudding can be consumed on a keto diet as it is low in carbohydrates. However, it's crucial to check the ingredient list for any hidden sugars or carbs. Pairing it with high-fat toppings, like whipped cream or nuts, can make it more satisfying.
Jello is high in sugar and low in fiber and protein, making it an unhealthy food choice. One serving (6.4 grams of dry mix) of sugar-free jello made with aspartame has only 13 calories, 1 gram of protein and no sugar. Still, artificial sweeteners may have negative effects on your health ( 2 , 3 ).
But now, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared aspartame a "possible" carcinogen. Most commonly, it's found in diet drinks. It's also in sugar-free Jello, sugar-free gum, or a packet sweetener for coffee and tea.
These findings are supported by a prior study comparing regular strawberry jelly to jelly for those with diabetes with sucralose and dextrin, demonstrating that reduced-sugar jelly consumption with an identical meal did not spike glucose and insulin levels in type 2 diabetes under controlled conditions [24].
Keto fruits by definition are low in carbohydrates. You still need to exercise portion control with most keto-friendly fruits to be within the limits of a keto diet. Keto-friendly fruits include avocados, watermelon, strawberries, lemons, tomatoes, raspberries, peaches, cantaloupe, star fruit, and blackberries.
There are a few reasons: Jell-O is easy to swallow and digest, making it suitable for patients who have difficulty eating solid foods or have digestive issues. It's smooth texture and mild flavor make it more tolerable for those with sensitive stomachs or who are recovering from surgery.
The good news is that jelly contains absolutely no carbs whatsoever! If you're also keeping a close eye on your calorie intake, you'll be pleased to know that just one serving of your sugar-free jelly contains 10 calories, making it a great guilt-free snack to add to your dity keto diet.
In addition to improving the elasticity of the skin, gelatin can also strengthen connective tissues. Studies have shown that collagen supplements like gelatin can reduce joint pain. They have also found that it can strengthen joints by increasing the density of the cartilage.
Every flavor of Sugar-Free Jell-O Gelatin contains maltodextrin, a notoriously un-keto sweetener. Maltodextrin has a glycemic index between 85-105, placing it on par with sugar for the effect it has on your blood sugar. This means that despite its zero carb label, it can still interfere with your ketosis.
It can be an excellent way to satisfy a sweet tooth, especially if you choose a low-calorie, sugar-free version because it leaves room in your daily caloric needs for more nutrient-dense foods. There is evidence that gelatin might help build the collagen protein that composes tendons, ligaments, and bones.
Although sugar-free jelly contains 0g of net carbs, it also contains no fat. This doesn't make it bad for your keto diet, it just means it won't be an effective, sustainable food to rely on in your diet.
Allulose, monk fruit, stevia, and erythritol are all keto sweeteners that taste and bake like sugar, without the negative health impacts. In fact, these low-carb sweeteners (all of which can be found right here at Splenda) have health benefits. You'll feel good about eating your keto cookie.
