What it is

Sugar is a common term for sweet-tasting, soluble carbohydrates. It is primarily sucrose, which is naturally found in plants like sugarcane and sugar beets. It is extracted, purified, and crystallized from these plants.

Why it's used

Sugar is widely used as a sweetener to improve the taste of foods and beverages. It also acts as a preservative in jams and jellies, helps with browning in baked goods, and adds bulk and texture to many processed foods.

Health notes

Sugar is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA. The 2025-2030 Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommend no amount of added sugars, and at most 10 grams of added sugars per meal. The World Health Organization (WHO) advises that free sugars should account for less than 10% of total energy intake. High consumption of added sugars is associated with increased risk of dental cavities, weight gain, and related health issues.
