FAQ_CLP_What is the natural sweetener used?

To comply with EU regulations, Clean Lean Protein sold in the UK and Europe is sweetened with a pinch of Stevia (a natural extract from the Stevia rebaudiana plant with a long history of use in traditional medicine, foods and drinks). The compounds in Stevia (steviol glycosides) are 30-300 times sweeter than sugar, so the amount needed to round out the flavour profile in our protein is minimal. And, because the body does not metabolise these glycosides, Stevia is considered to be a zero-calorie natural sweetener.
