In recent years, with the improvement of consumer health awareness, the harm of excessive sugar intake in daily diet has been increasingly valued
.
Many consumers, especially young consumers, believe that these sugar-free drinks have a good taste, and at the same time, because of "zero sugar", "zero fat" and "zero calories", so "just drink not fat"
.
Why is "sugar-free" still sweet?
The current "General Principles of Nutrition Labeling of Prepackaged Food in National Food Safety Standards" stipulates that the carbohydrate (sugar) content per 100 grams or 100 ml of solid or liquid food is not higher than 0.
"'Sugar-free' and 'zero calorie' on the beverage label do not mean no sugar, nor do they mean no calories
.
Are sugar-free drinks healthier?
Whether sugar-free drinks are really healthier has always been the focus
of debate among netizens.
"Sugar-free drinks are indeed healthier than really sugary drinks
.
Mu Yiming said that the love of sweetness is the common sentiment of people, so there is nothing wrong with adding sweeteners to beverages, "As for the safety of these sweeteners, the key is to see whether the sweeteners used meet the relevant national regulations, and if they are added according to national standards, there is no need to worry
.
Can sugar-free drinks be "open to drink"?
However, Mu Yiming also said that long-term drinking of sugar-free drinks in large quantities will also have an impact on the human body, "If you only drink one or two bottles occasionally, there will be no problem
.
The National Health Commission advocated in the "Healthy China Action (2019-2030)" that by 2030, the per capita daily intake of added sugar will not be higher than 25 grams, so many people have begun to consciously reduce sugar intake in their daily diets, and the pursuit of "sugar-free" and "zero calorie" has increasingly become a new fashion
.
In this regard, Mu Yiming also specially reminded the general public that sugar will only have a negative impact on the body in the case of excessive intake, and these negative effects cannot be simply said to be directly caused by
sugar.
