No, they're totally different. Sweet n' Low is Saccharin, which will affect your insulin response, and Splenda, although made from sugar, won't.


Splenda, Stevia, and SteviaPlus are the only sweeteners I know of that don't affect your insulin levels/response.

The above links give detailed information about each product.
