1, different components
0 calorie candy is a sweet food made of sweeteners instead of sugar. These sweeteners can be natural, such as stevia leaf, or artificial, such as aspartame. Ordinary sugar is made from natural substances such as sucrose, glucose and fructose.
2, the heat content is different
0 calories are usually made of artificial sweeteners, and the calorie content of these sweeteners is very low, even negligible. Ordinary sugar is composed of natural sugars such as sucrose, fructose and glucose, which have high calorie content.
3, the sweetness is different
The sweetness of 0-calorie sugar is usually higher than that of ordinary sugar, so the dosage will be reduced accordingly.
Modern development of sugar
1, the variety of sugar increased.
With the improvement of modern sugar processing technology and the continuous development of food processing technology, there are more and more kinds of sugar. In addition to the traditional sucrose, glucose and fructose, there are many new sweeteners, such as aspartame and stevioside.
2. The yield of sugar is improved.
With the development of sugar industry, the output of sugar is increasing. Modern sugar factories and agricultural technology make the cultivation and production of sugar more efficient, thus increasing the yield of sugar.
3. Changes in the consumption structure of sugar
With the improvement of people's living standards and the enhancement of health awareness, the consumption structure of sugar has changed. The traditional sugar consumption market is gradually saturated, while the market demand for new sweet products such as low sugar, sugar-free and healthy is increasing.
4. Expansion of international trade in sugar.
With the development of globalization, the international trade of sugar has gradually expanded. The policies of sugar production, consumption and trade in different countries have an impact on the development of global sugar market.
