Scientific drinking of sugar substitute beverages.

Sugar is added to food and has several main effects: providing sweetness, corrosion protection, increased aroma, and attractive color. In the case of sucrose, the most common sugar in the general sugar, about 400 kC per 100 grams of calories, fructose also produces 306 kC per 100 grams of calories, and these are absorbed through the body's digestion, excessive intake will increase the body's burden. For the sake of health, people began to put sugar (sweeteners) into the arms. Bao Bin, an associate professor at Shanghai Ocean University's School of Food, said: "Sugar substitutes are divided into artificial substitute sugars and natural substitutes, artificial substitute sugars include Ansai honey, asparta sweet, sucralose, etc., natural substitute sugars have liglycol, erythromylitol, stevia glycoside and rohan fructose glycoside." "The common aspartite chemical name is Tianmen dongyl phenylalanine, which is a combination of Tianmen dongline and phenylalanine and is about 200 times sweeter than sucrose.
The amount of sugar per 100 grams or every 100 milliliters in solid or liquid foods is not higher than 0.5 grams, which can be called sugar-free food, said Mary, director of the nutrition department of Yueyang Chinese and Western Medicine Hospital, affiliated with Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Since "zero sugar" is marked, where does the sweetness come from? "Zero-calorie or low-calorie substitute sugars, most of which are not involved in body metabolism, are produced by binding to the sweet taste of the taste buds and transmitting signals to the brain to produce a sweet taste." Bao Bin explained.
fact, the study and application of substitute sugar began very early abroad. In the past two years, China's sugar market has made rapid progress, in 2018 has become the world's largest sugar consumption market.
, is sugar really 100 percent healthy? Controversy persists. Under laboratory conditions, scientists found that asparticle is hydrolyzed in the human body and that its product methanol is at risk of blindness and cancer. In mouse experiments, it was found that excessive intake of sucralose increased the risk of leukemia. "If a certain food is harmful, it has to talk about dosage and time." "The substitute sugar that is currently present in foods such as sugar-free beverages is a food additive, " says Mary. It is relatively safe in terms of toxicity according to dosing specifications. "However, the effects of sugar substitutes on the human body still need to be studied in more depth.
both experts pointed out that according to the Dietary Guidelines for Chinese Residents (2016), sugar is not required in a balanced diet, and if consumed, it is recommended not to exceed 50 grams per day, preferably under about 25 grams. "Excessive intake of regular sugar increases the risk of caries and obesity, and it is addictive." "For children and adolescents, sugary drinks are the main source of sugar intake, and it is recommended not to drink or drink less sugary beverages," Mary said. "
for sugary drinks, Mary recommends using them as a transition if you've liked sugary drinks before." If you don't usually drink sugary drinks, don't drink them deliberately because you think sugar drinks are low in calories. Drinking more boiled water or tea will be healthier. "
