Granulated white sugar, derived primarily from sugarcane or sugar beets, is a refined form of sucrose—a naturally occurring carbohydrate. Known for its fine texture and neutral sweetness, it is a staple in baking, beverages, and cooking across global cuisines. While it provides quick energy due to its fast digestion, it lacks essential nutrients like vitamins, minerals, or fiber. Overconsumption of granulated sugar may contribute to health concerns such as weight gain, tooth decay, and an increased risk of chronic conditions like diabetes or heart disease. Nonetheless, in moderation, it can enhance flavors and serve as an occasional energy boost. Widely recognized for its versatility, white sugar is used in both savory and sweet dishes, making it a key ingredient in recipes ranging from cakes and cookies to marinades and sauces.
