What it is

Sugar is a common carbohydrate, primarily sucrose, that is extracted and refined from plants like sugarcane or sugar beets. 'Fair Trade Certified' indicates that the sugar was produced and traded according to specific ethical, social, and environmental standards.

Why it's used

Sugar is widely used in foods and beverages as a sweetener, providing a sweet taste. It also contributes to texture, browning, and acts as a preservative in many products. It is commonly found in candy, cookies, baked goods, and sweetened drinks.

Health notes

Sugar is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA. While it provides energy, consuming too much added sugar is linked to various health concerns. The 2025-2030 Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommend no amount of added sugars, and at most 10 grams per meal. JECFA has evaluated sugars and concluded that they are not a health concern at typical intake levels.
