What it is

Sugar is a sweet carbohydrate that comes from sugarcane and sugar beets. It is refined into various forms, such as granulated white sugar, brown sugar, and powdered sugar.

Why it's used

Sugar is widely used in processed foods as a sweetener to enhance flavor and palatability. It also acts as a preservative, helps with browning in baked goods, and contributes to texture.

Health notes

In the US, sugar is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as intended. The World Health Organization (WHO) and other health bodies recommend limiting added sugars in the diet due to potential links to weight gain and chronic diseases. JECFA has evaluated sugar and established acceptable intake levels. Evidence on the direct impact of sugar on health is extensive and ongoing, with recommendations to consume added sugars in moderation.
