What it is

Sugar is a common term for sweet-tasting carbohydrates, most often sucrose, which is typically extracted from sugarcane or sugar beets. Honey is a sweet, thick liquid produced by honey bees from the nectar of flowering plants.

Why it's used

Both sugar and honey are primarily used as sweeteners in a wide variety of foods and beverages. They also contribute to flavor, texture, and moisture retention in products like baked goods, snacks, sauces, and cereals.

Health notes

Both sugar and honey are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA. They provide energy in the form of carbohydrates. 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 limiting free sugars to less than 10% of total energy intake. Excessive intake of added sugars, including those from honey, is associated with an increased risk of health issues such as dental cavities and weight gain.
