Mexican nutritionists have warned that despite the popularity of food labeled "low fat and low sugar" in recent years, consumers still need to choose carefully According to Julita Ponce, a nutritionist in the country, in order to put on the brand of "sugar free drink", manufacturers usually remove the sugar contained in the drink itself and replace it with sweetener, but in fact, sweetener is not good for human body For example, de lactose milk is a special product for people who lack lactase Although the milk does not contain lactose, it still contains some fat Similarly, low-fat milk only removes part of the fat and still has some calories According to the regulations of Mohist Ministry of health, food with less than 5% calories in the nutritional composition of food belongs to "calorie free" food, while food with less than 40% calories is "low calorie" food.
