I don't know whether it would be harmful or repellant, but there is certainly no nutritive benefit. I recommend staying away from it.

It has 75% less calories, if I raised up the blend, I could do half and half. Would still give them some calories.

Why not just regular sugar?

At the minute I don't have any regular sugar, just a question.
