重新考慮甜味劑的使用

Rethinking Sweeteners

世界衞生組織建議,糖攝取量應限制於每日所需總熱量的10%以下,如能進一步降低至5%或以下,則對健康有更多的益處。人造甜味劑提供甜味但無熱量,似乎是減少糖分攝取的理想選擇。然而,新的科學證據顯示,以人造甜味劑代替糖未必會帶來預期的健康益處。現在是時候重新考慮,我們可否只以甜味劑代替糖。

The World Health Organization recommends limiting sugar intake to less than 10% of daily caloric intake, with a proposal to lower this level to 5% or less for additional health benefits. By offering the taste of sweetness without any calories, artificial sweeteners appear to be one promising answer to sugar reduction. New scientific evidence, however, suggests that replacing sugar with artificial sweeteners may not have the health benefits we have expected. It is high time to rethink whether we can just replace sugars with sweeteners.
