Three separate readings, kept apart on purpose. This is not a score, and none of it says this product is harmful.

This label lists 1 sweetener.

E955 Sucralose
Artificial sweetener
Low moderate evidence

What it is. An intense sweetener made from sugar, around 600 times sweeter, so it is used in very small amounts.

Why it is used. Sweetens diet drinks, tabletop sweeteners, dairy and baked goods.

What the evidence says. Regulators have treated it as safe for decades and the acceptable daily intake has not changed. Newer laboratory work on a breakdown product, and the general question of sweeteners and the gut microbiome, keep it under discussion, but that work is early and has not moved any official position.

Regulatory status UK Permitted EU Permitted US Permitted

Permitted with an acceptable daily intake in all three regions.
