What it is
Non-GMO Pure Cane Sugar is a type of sucrose extracted from sugar cane plants that have not been genetically modified. The sugar is obtained by crushing the cane, extracting the juice, and then purifying and crystallizing it.
Why it's used
It is primarily used as a sweetener in a wide range of foods and beverages. It also contributes to texture, browning, and acts as a preservative in products like jams and jellies.
Health notes
Cane 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 per meal. The World Health Organization (WHO) advises limiting intake of free sugars to less than 10% of total energy intake. High intake of added sugars is associated with various health concerns, including increased risk of dental cavities and weight gain. JECFA and EFSA do not typically evaluate basic food ingredients like sugar as food additives.
