About Table sugar

Table sugar, also known as sucrose, is a common sweetener derived from sugar cane or sugar beets. Chemically, it consists of one glucose molecule bonded to one fructose molecule. Widely used across global cuisines, it provides sweetness to baked goods, beverages, and countless recipes. While table sugar is a quick source of energy for the body, it lacks essential nutrients like vitamins or minerals and is considered an "empty calorie." Excessive consumption is associated with health risks, including weight gain, increased risk of cavities, and higher likelihood of developing chronic conditions such as type 2 diabetes and heart disease. Moderation is key when incorporating sugar into your diet, and it is often recommended to prioritize natural sugars found in fruits and other whole foods. Opting for lower intake can support healthier eating habits overall.
