As of my last update in 2024, there is no information indicating that allulose is banned in Canada. In fact, Health Canada, the regulatory body responsible for food safety and approval of new ingredients, has evaluated allulose and allowed its use as a sweetener in various food products.
In 2019, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recognized allulose as Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) and allowed its use in foods and beverages. Following this, many countries, including Canada, have reviewed allulose and determined that it can be safely used as a sweetener.
If you've heard that allulose is banned in Canada, it might be due to a misunderstanding or outdated information. To confirm the current status, you can check the latest regulations and guidelines from Health Canada, which would provide the most accurate information regarding the use of allulose in food products within Canada.
If you need specific details about the regulations or if there have been recent changes, I can help look up the most current information available.
