Deal link doesn't work for me, also the other link doesn't show the Frank's product???
Edit: Never mind, it seems the product isn't available from my local shop, and when you're signed in you only see search results for products which are.

Fair play, but bear in mind that putting the word diabetic in front of a food or drink or sweeties is all too often a license to rip folk off. If you're diabetic normal ice cream is okay generally. So long as you don't stuff a barrel full down your neck!

Are there actually any sugar-free ice cream products? This one contains fructose as the sweetener which (so a video on YouTube says) is really really bad.

What are the harmful effects of Fructose? Well, I guess we need to ask Frank. www.talktofrank.com

I hope you don't get all your health advice from random youtube videos. :stuck_out_tongue:
I can make a good guess as to what you saw. Fructose, and all sugar in general, is not toxic or poisonous. It is if you consume vast quantities of pure fructose in your diet but no one does that. Anything can be toxic if you have too much, even water and oxygen. :confused:

Compare the ingredients/nutritional panels to most other vanilla ice creams & you will struggle to see how this is beneficial to diabetics!

if I remember correctly the Morrisons own brand low sugar ice cream was better than this for carb content. As someone else already said though, just have normal stuff but shove less in your face!
