What does a person who wants to lose weight not go to! And, of course, first of all, he begins to limit himself in sweets.. Just cuts alive. He wants to put three spoons of sugar in a glass of tea. An, no! It is impossible, because the doctors do not order, according to the Internet edition for girls and women from 14 to 35 years old Pannochka. net Wash up, and switch to sweeteners. Yes, but will it make any sense

Two hundred sweeteners Sweeteners are substances that taste sweet but do not raise blood sugar levels.. Currently, about two hundred such substances are known, the sweetness of some of them exceeds the sweetness of sugar by several thousand times.. Most of them are not available for mass production, as they are found in exotic plants.. There are some differences between sweeteners.. Allocate groups of natural substances containing calories, and artificial substances, non-caloric. The first group includes fructose, which increases blood sugar, as well as xylitol and sorbitol, which do not increase blood sugar.. The second group of substances includes saccharin (sucrazite), acesulfame potassium, sodium cyclamate (zukli, sweetli), aspartame (suga fries, nutrasvit, sladex, surel), sucralose. When burning 1 g of natural sweeteners (xylitol, sorbitol, fructose), 4 kcal is formed, which is equivalent to the calorie content of proteins and carbohydrates. It is important to remember this if you want to reduce body weight. They are not absolutely harmless. Fructose, being a natural simple carbohydrate, increases blood sugar levels when absorbed, but this happens three times slower than when glucose is absorbed.. Accordingly, the increase in blood sugar levels with glucose is much slower and not as significant as with glucose.. However, the daily dose of fructose should be limited to 30-40g of the product.. That's why fruits and berries, fruit juices increase blood sugar.

Jam or compote cooked on fructose still contains carbohydrates - primarily due to the fruits used for their cooking. Some sweeteners do not withstand heat treatment. If you cook jam with aspartame, it will turn out bitter. Withstand heat treatment sorbitol, saccharin, sodium cyclamate. When buying products labeled " Their label shows the calorie content of the product and how many carbohydrates are contained in 100g of the product, which allows you to calculate the number of bread units (XE), which we talked about in the previous issue, in one serving.

No more than four tablets per day!

Will long-term use of sweeteners cause any side effects Most often this question concerns saccharin.. The fact is that at one time scientists conducted an experiment in which laboratory rats ate only saccharin for a long time.. These rats developed bladder cancer. But does this mean that saccharin really causes this disease Still, in everyday life, we are unlikely to eat saccharin alone..

In addition, as we remember, during the Great Patriotic War, our compatriots used saccharin as a sweetener, which did not lead to a surge in the incidence of bladder cancer in the post-war years..

Therefore, the use of saccharin should not cause you serious concerns.. But it is not recommended to use it in children and during pregnancy.

The use of sodium cyclamate should be limited in renal failure.. In this disease, it is generally better to use glucose for food, and not its chemical analogues, since in this condition the tendency to hypoglycemic conditions increases significantly, that is, to a sharp decrease in blood sugar. Acesulfame potassium is limited in heart failure, aspartame in phenylketonuria.

Sweeteners are safe when taken at recommended doses.. But their number usually should not exceed 4 pcs.. per day, in addition, every 2 weeks it is recommended to take breaks in their use for 2-3 days.
