The science of low calorie sweeteners
Article Type: Food facts From: Nutrition & Food Science, Volume 40, Issue 5.
A British Nutrition Foundation conference – intense sweeteners have been available as a means of reducing sugar intake for more than a century and have made possible low- and no-sugar brands which feature in almost everyone's diet. They could also be important in helping us to reduce energy intake in the future. The objective of this one-day conference is to make available the latest science and research on sweeteners, to explore where these ingredients can be a useful choice in foods and beverages, to review their safety and consider negative perceptions where they exist. The event is designed to appeal to anyone interested in food, nutrition and health and to provide an interactive, scientifically sound and engaging debate.
