Frequently asked questions
Do sugar-free gummy bears contain carbohydrates?
Yes. Birkengold lists 84 g of carbohydrates per 100 g, including 84 g of polyols. According to our shop’s calculation, that is 84 minus 84 = 0 g of countable carbohydrates (Net Carbs). The declared carbohydrate content remains 84 g.
Which sweeteners do the vegan gummy bears contain?
Maltitol syrup and xylitol are used as sweeteners; sorbitol syrup is included as a humectant. The gummy bears contain no gelatin and get their shape from pectin.
Are there Zero gummy bears or wine gums without calories?
No. Calorie-free gummy bears do not exist: this pack provides 217 kcal per 100 g, with the sweetness coming from maltitol and xylitol. They still contain no countable carbohydrates because the 84 g of carbohydrates per 100 g are offset by 84 g of polyols.
Are these organic gummy bears?
The organic labeling in the ingredients list refers to carnauba wax and sunflower oil. It is not an organic certification for the entire fruit gummy product.
How do I convert countable carbohydrates into KE or BE?
Use the Diabetes KE calculator from Zuckerschmuck: select an item from the range or enter the value per 100 g, specify the amount in grams, and the countable carbohydrates will be converted into KE and BE; the calculator does not provide a dosage recommendation. One KE corresponds to 10 g of carbohydrates, and one BE to 12 g of carbohydrates.
Are there vegan gummy bears without added sugar?
Yes. These vegan gummy bears contain no added sugar and no gelatin, and are sweetened with maltitol and xylitol. If you’re looking for sugar-free gummy bears, you’ll find sugar-free gummy bears here with no carbohydrates in terms of the countable amount: 84 g of carbohydrates minus 84 g of polyols per 100 g equals 0 g of countable carbohydrates.
Are Birkengold gummy bears low in calories?
No. The nutrition facts table lists 217 kcal per 100 g; almost all of the energy comes from maltitol and xylitol.
Are there gummy bears for people with diabetes?

** Note on carbohydrates: Polyols are listed in the nutrition facts table under carbohydrates. We calculated the countable carbohydrates by subtracting polyols from carbohydrates, as diabinfo, the diabetes information portal of Helmholtz Munich and the German Diabetes Center, also describes for sugar substitutes. Some polyols are partially digested, so observe how your levels respond.

How do I calculate insulin for low carb products?
Low-carb products say "sugar-free" on the packaging, but the carbohydrates are usually very high. What does that mean and how much insulin do I need for it? The carbohydrates from polyhydric alcohols have no effect on the metabolism and do not increase blood sugar levels, so they do not need to be calculated in terms of insulin dosage. In concrete terms, this means: you check the packaging to see how many carbohydrates are stated. From that, you subtract the information "of which polyhydric alcohols". The result is the number that you need to take into account in terms of insulin dosage.
