In the hot summer, is it true that drinking "sugar-free" beverages will not gain weight?

Original title: In the hot summer, will drinking "sugar-free" beverages really not gain weight?

I don't know if you have noticed that this kind of "0 sucrose" drink seems to be quite popular with many Jimei people recently.

This reminded Xiao Jian that in April last year, the famous beverage brand Yuanqi Forest launched an advertisement for "0 sucrose", which also caused some controversy at that time

According to relevant media reports, the concept of "0 sucrose" is indeed a bit of a trick.

But in fact, in general, although there is no sucrose in sucrose-free foods, sugars such as crystalline fructose, trehalose, and maltose are often added.

On April 12 last year, Wang Silu, a national senior food inspector, explained to the Times Weekly reporter that the so-called "sugar-free food" is not literally "without sugar" but "without glucose, sucrose and other sugars".

did you see? In short:

Sugar-free beverages ≠ sugar-free beverages ≠ sugar-free additions

Sweeteners are divided into natural sweeteners and artificial sweeteners.

In addition to sugar alcohol sweeteners, general sweeteners are usually very sweet, usually 200 to 500 times that of sucrose, and up to 2000 times, which is the source of the sweet taste of "sugar-free" beverages

For our body, both polysaccharides and disaccharides need to be broken down into monosaccharides before they can be absorbed and utilized

In other words, there are many types of sugar,

Sucrose is just one of them

And now the promotion that these soft drink manufacturers are doing now is actually to grasp it accurately.

So under the banner of health, I said that my products did not add sucrose, and they were delicious and would not get fat

But in practice? There is really no sucrose in the drink, but a lot of other sugars are added, such as fructose, glucose, maltose, starch syrup, glucose syrup, fructose syrup and other various sugars

Originally, adding sucrose has to be decomposed by the digestive tract to become monosaccharides for absorption.

What if someone with diabetes who doesn't know how to do it mistook "0 sucrose" for "0 sugar" and drank it? ? Drinking beverages with extremely high sugar content and easy absorption of monosaccharides has a great impact on such patients

Many beverages that advertise themselves as "0 sucrose" and will not gain weight have higher calorie and carbohydrate (sugar) content in the nutrition table!

So, to say that "sugar-free" beverages are wordplay hype involves hype about weight loss and anti-aging
.

As for what kind of "sugar-free" drink can help you lose weight, then this is more worthy of consideration.
The weight-loss effect of this "sugar-free drink" is only effective for some people
.

Compared with sucrose sweeteners, the calories generated can be ignored.
For people who have the habit of drinking beverages before, if they replace sugar-sweetened beverages with sugar-free beverages, there will be no major changes in their diet, and they can indeed control calories to a certain extent.
Intake to lose weight
.
For people who are not used to drinking beverages, this may promote appetite and lead to eating more
.

There is also a view that: quitting sugar, cutting sugar to fight skin aging, this concept is not desirable
.

The anti-aging argument against sugar is that excess sugar intake accelerates glycation in the body
.
Sugar is the main source of calories needed by the human body, and the glycosylation reaction is only a normal physiological phenomenon, which occurs in the body all the time.
The glycoproteins it produces are very important to maintain the normal operation of the body.
There is no need to specifically fight against sugar.
The WHO and the National Health Commission have also emphasized reducing sugar and limiting sugar
.

Therefore, you must pay attention to some beverages with the flag of 0 sugar.
These beverages are not sugar-free.
As long as the sugar intake is not excessive, it can be consumed normally
