Resumen
GARCIA-ALMEIDA, J. M.; CASADO FDEZ, Gracia M.ª y GARCIA ALEMAN, J.. A current and global review of sweeteners: regulatory aspects. Nutr. Hosp. [online]. 2013, vol.28, suppl.4, pp.17-31. ISSN 1699-5198.
In this chapter we review the role and potential benefits of non-caloric sweeteners, as part of the diet. After appearing and interest in the beneficial effects attributed to them, face different situations and conditions (obesity, diabetes...), more and more numerous studies, show their ineffective use. In conclusion, further research and results are needed to provide convincing evidence of their long-term effectiveness and the absence of negative effects from their use. The interest of the chapter lies in examining the distinctive aspects of sweeteners compared with sugar, measured as the standard of comparison. We will focus then on the other substances that are commonly used to sweeten foods instead of sugar.
