Lactulose is a synthetic disaccharide that is not absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract, which means it does not contribute significantly to blood glucose levels. As a non-digestible carbohydrate, it passes through the intestines unchanged and is fermented by gut bacteria, producing short-chain fatty acids that can have various health benefits. Therefore, lactulose has a minimal impact on glycemic response and is often considered safe for people with Diabetes.
