What are low-calorie sweeteners?
Low-calorie sweeteners are ingredients with a sweet taste and few or no calories or substances that taste so sweet that they can be used in tiny amounts, resulting in negligible calories. That is because they can be 200 or 300 times sweeter than sugar (like stevia). Many products include low-calorie sweeteners, such as food and beverages, chewing gum, ice creams, yogurts, pastries, desserts, soft drinks, light products etc. Sometimes they are also used in the pharmaceutical industry to improve the taste of medicines. Finally, we find them in the supermarket as an alternative to sugar and honey for our drinks (see stevia, aspartame, saccharin) or sweets we prepare.
