Tate & Lyle Sweetens Life for GI dieters

| Filed in:
Tate & Lyle, is introducing a new Fruit Sugar which is a good choice for anyone following a GI-based diet. Made entirely from fructose – which is found naturally in plants and fruits – Tate & Lyle Fruit Sugar has a low Glycaemic Index (GI) rating. This means its energy is absorbed more slowly by the body. Because it is made entirely from fructose, it has a sweeter taste, so less is needed in tea, coffee or on cereals. Tate & Lyle Fruit Sugar comes in a convenient re-sealable 250g bag and is available from Sainsbury’s and Waitrose from February 2005 at £0.94 a pack. For further information or photography, please contact: Helen Cloughley or Belinda Unasing at the Tate & Lyle Information Service on 020 8682 1633/2482 or e-mail [email protected]
