Artificial sweetening agents like Saccharin, Alitame, Sucrolose can be used in the preparation of sweets for a diabetic patient as they do not add any calories to the body.
Diabetic people are advised to consume low-calorie diet [fewer carbohydrates & more proteinaceous and fiber rich]. The refined sugar like sucrose adds calorie to the diet but complex sugar and starches do not add to the calorie intake of a person and at the same time impart a sweet taste to diet. Artificial sweeteners are generally either complex sugar or protein in nature
