Dr. Martinez-Gonjalaz is very clear on dilemma.
“When the sugar is added, the products sell more. Consumers put more calories in the body when calorie becomes well sweet. An alternative is cakein and other sweetness that lacks calories. But is non-chyloric sweetness that is useful as an alternative? Healthy for sugar?”
Drinking ‘zero’ Soft Drinks is a More Expensive Way to Drink Tap Water.
The author of the book “Health With Kuch Science” shows all the substances that do not add calories to the diet and work to give the sweet taste, such as Esculfem -Potassium (E -950), aspartem (E -951), Monosodium Cycalamate (E -952) or Sachin (E -955). He takes as a reference such as the Food and Drug Administration in the United States, which has approved it and is classified as “generally safe” among them: AceSulfame-Potassium, Aspartame, Saccharin, Sucralosis and Neotame. He has also approved a combination of Advantum (E -969), Espartem and Vanillin, which is 37,000 times sweet compared to sugar and 100 times sweet than asparte.
This major expert on the Mediterranean diet, who is a professor at the prestigious Harvard University and who established the Department of Preventive Medicine and Public Health at Navara University, makes a comparison that is very interesting when it comes into perspective in perspective what these alternative substances represent for sugar. “Both these sweetness and” zero “soft drinks that they can be included can only be considered for smokers for nicotine patches-which will definitely work for the use period before switching in water.”
What Does Other Experts Say?
“Nutrition concept” for Miguel, from nutritional points of view, does not contribute these sweet products. “Experts believe that they are healthy products compared to their Chinese -free options and do not have” unwanted effects “, even though they discover: drinking a drink with this type of sweetener helps maintain social customs that some should drink sweet cold drinks, instead of water, and artificially develop a taste for sweet things, especially in children.
Dr. The conclusion of Martinez-Gonzalez is powerful: “Drink” is a more expensive way of drinking water of “zero” soft drinks. They are just a good intermediate stage to free up sugar -cooling drinks. But the final goal, I insist, should always drink drinking water “.
Notable Issues to Keep in Mind.
- Zero toothbrushes are no magic that does not carry calories – it contains the artificial sweeteners that confuse the brain rather than feed it.
- The FDA approved sweeteners are deemed safe but in the long run excessive use remains doubtful among the health professionals.
- They are able to help in reduction of the intake of sugar in the short, though not to replace natural sources of water like water.
- Children and teens should be cautious as any exposure at such tender age may predispose them to be spoiled by excessively sweet flavours.
- Last recommendation – do not make them a regular thing, but a transitioning one.
