Sugar is a simple carbohydrate that contains calories but does not have nutrients. That's why if you consume too much sugar will cause obesity, teeth will be sunken or other health problems. Most sugar-free foods on the market are made with alternative ingredients to replace the sweet taste commonly referred to as artificial sweeteners.
For dieters for people with diabetes mellitus, artificial sweeteners must become a daily diet. As an alternative to sugar, artificial sweeteners on the market are considered suitable for those who want to adopt a healthy lifestyle, but still want to taste the sweet. However, are these artificial sweeteners healthier?
As reported by Harvard Medical School in the United States, there are five artificial sweeteners approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA), namely saccharin, acesulfame, aspartame, neotame, and sucralosa.
Artificial sweeteners are sweeteners whose raw ingredients can not be found in nature and are produced through chemical processes. Some artificial sweeteners are commonly used in processed food products such as yogurt, skim milk, syrup, soda, and so on.
If you want to buy products labeled sugar free, you should check the composition of food, because usually in some products there are additional artificial sweeteners in it. The reason this is what causes sugar-free foods is actually possible to have some unhealthy side effects for the body.
