Sweeteners are substances used to enhance the flavor of food and beverages by adding sweetness. They can be classified into natural and artificial types. Natural sweeteners, such as honey, maple syrup, and agave nectar, originate from plants or animal sources and often contain trace nutrients like vitamins and minerals. Artificial sweeteners, like aspartame or sucralose, are chemically synthesized and offer high sweetness intensity with little to no calories. Commonly used worldwide, sweeteners are integral to cuisines ranging from baked goods to beverages. While natural sweeteners may provide modest nutritional benefits, they often contain sugars that can contribute to calorie intake and affect blood sugar levels. Artificial sweeteners are low in calories but may have controversial health implications when consumed in excess. Moderation is key, as excessive use of any sweetener can impact metabolic health and dietary balance.
