Zero Sugar is becoming a craze.

 

1. Sweet taste~ Everyone likes it.

 

Sweetness stimulates the human brain to secrete serotonin hormones.

It makes you feel psychologically comfortable and happy.

 

3. Therefore, when things don't go well or I feel frustrated, I relieve the pressure or change my mood by eating sweet foods or snacks.

Temporarily feel pleasure and joy.

 

4.70, because sugar was a rare commodity even in the 1980s

It has always received even greater love than the current rib set as a gift.

There was a time.

 

As the desire for longevity increases, the mindset of health-conscious individuals aiming to achieve both taste and health is becoming stronger.

7. Most of you buy various foods at supermarkets or convenience stores.

When purchasing a beverage, I will carefully check the "Nutrition Information" section on the back of the product before making a decision.

 

8. Looking at the ingredients, "carbohydrates" are listed under "sugars."

The sugar is displayed there.

Amount contained per 100g of the food, g

It shows the percentage contribution of daily caloric (calorie) requirements.

 

Because the structure is simple, it is quickly broken down during digestion and rapidly absorbed by the body.

 

10. In other words, it refers to the rapid rate at which energy, as we commonly talk about, is converted, and therefore it is also the main cause of quickly raising blood sugar levels.

 

The background of indicating the sugar content is to inform consumers that the amount of quickly absorbed sugars is at this level, so they should carefully review and consider their health when purchasing and consuming.

 

12. This means that simple sugars have a significantly (negative) impact on health.

 

13. Since the sugar content in the foods we consume is relatively high to the extent that mandatory sugar labeling on all processed foods is required at the national level, we are issuing strong warnings and recommendations for health reasons.

 

Considering that trend, what is attracting attention is the zero sugar (zero sugar, 0% sugar) movement.

Zero sugar means 'no sugar' or 'sugar-free'.

 

15. The goal is to use natural sugars (sugars that naturally occur during the manufacturing process) or added sugars (artificially added sugars) to create sweetness.

 

16. The "sugar-free" label circulating in the beverage advertisements means that no sugar has been added, but the sweetness is derived from natural sugars or added sugars.

 

17. Under domestic standards, the terms 'sugar-free' and 'unsweetened' can only be used when the product is manufactured without the use of sugars or similar substances, and the sugar content of the food itself is not increased.

 

Globally, the rates of diabetes, overweight, and obesity are increasing rapidly.

As it rises, the preference for zero-sugar products is increasing.

 

19. The idea is to maintain sweetness while reducing sugar intake.

Why?

Sugar is a food that is very far from being healthy.

 

20. My precious body, my health—will I harm myself (by spending my hard-earned money) just to indulge in something sweet?
