Yuanqi Forest has apologized. What is the difference between 0 sucrose, 0 sugar and low sugar?

Currently, zero-calorie sugar is in the early stages of development, and the products are mixed, so proceed with caution. Zero-calorie sugar is a broad concept name. The specific products are as follows. I will give you a brief introduction and identification method.

Erythritol: Many brands name pure erythritol as zero-calorie sugar. This type of zero-calorie sugar has a very low sweetness, about 0.6 that of white sugar. Sometimes it will make you Do you think it is sugar? It tastes so bland! It only becomes sweet if you add a lot of it. For example, if you add 10 grams of white sugar, you need to add 16 grams of erythritol to achieve the same sweetness. You know better than me how much extra money you have spent. For those who do bakers, the price/performance ratio is too low! The key is that it is sweet and does not have the heavy feeling of white sugar, but the calories are indeed 0. It can be chosen by those who are willful and don't have high taste requirements.

Stevia: The stevia that ordinary consumers think of is actually a compound sugar substitute with stevia added to erythritol. It is not pure stevia, because pure stevia The sweetness is thousands of times that of white sugar, and most of them taste so bitter that they make you question your life and cannot be eaten directly. Usually the ingredients in the ingredient list are: erythritol and steviol glycosides. You should be careful when buying this type of zero-calorie sugar. Generally speaking, it will have a slightly bitter taste after eating. It also has 0 calories, so friends who don’t have high taste requirements can try it.

Monk fruit candy: Most of it is brown due to the presence of monk fruit powder. There are few commercially available products and manufacturers, and it is also a compound sugar substitute. It is named after the addition of Luo Han Guo powder. Due to the taste of Luo Han Guo raw materials and the manufacturing process, it generally tastes like traditional Chinese medicine and has an unnatural sweetness. Friends who do not have high taste requirements can choose it.

Xylitol: Generally has higher calories and carbohydrates, and some people are intolerant. Excessive consumption will cause diarrhea or diarrhea, so xylitol is suitable for some people.

Zero-calorie sugar: In the label nutrition facts table, the carbohydrate item is 0, and the calories are also 0. This is the true zero-calorie sugar. This type of product basically combines all the advantages of sugar substitutes, such as 0 sugar, 0 calories and 0 fat, no fat gain, no high blood sugar, no cavities, no acne, no saccharification, etc. It is recommended to buy 2 times the sweetness, which is more cost-effective. At present, the quality of this kind of zero-calorie sugar on the Internet is uneven, and the taste and sweetness are also very different. How to tell them apart?

Look at the manufacturer. If the words "entrusted", "sold", etc. are printed on the packaging, it is basically a "leather bag company" in the usual sense that entrusts others to produce the product. It cannot be directly responsible for the quality of the product. Once quality problems occur, the manufacturer will be held legally responsible. It is recommended to purchase with caution. Don't listen to what the seller says, don't look at how many certificates are posted on the web page, trust your own eyes. The Food Safety Law clearly stipulates that for food that is not produced by oneself, the words "entrusted processing" must be written on the packaging. Although it will accidentally hurt some companies, for ordinary consumers who have no discernment ability, one size fits all is the simplest method.
