Is this too much sugar or am I overthinking?

I just bought Whey Protein Powder (Vanilla). I was concerned about the added sugar so I checked the ingredients..it says it contains 1 gram added sugar, sucralose (sweetener), and natural and artifical flavors.
Is this too much sugar?

P.s. It tastes very sweet too.

That’s just a tiny bit but I won’t use anything with sucralose in it.

@cherokeepatti Why not?

@Girlygirl it’s not healthy. Heard a physical therapist say that it and some other sweeteners like aspartame can crystal up in the lymph system and cause cellulite. Takes physical therapy massage to help clear the lymph system so it can drain properly.

@cherokeepatti there are a ton of artificial chemicals in those sort of products. We are better off just eating healthy and nutritious foods when we can. I understand that the inconvenience of our busy schedules prevents us from allocating available time and resources to healthy eating...and by default we are delegated to quick nutrition. I am guilty of it. If given the chance, I would absolutely eat wholesome meals and snacks.
