Current Evidence on Non-Caloric Sweeteners and Their Health Implications

We call them low-calorie, non-nutritive, artificial and intense sweeteners; these sugar substitutes serve as a non-caloric alternative to sucrose or table sugar. Reducing the number of calories in sweetened foods and beverages, they are used with the goal of achieving weight loss or controlling body weight. What does the most recent science tell us? This evening event will unpack current scientific research from multiple disciplines, regarding the effect of non-caloric sweeteners currently approved by the Food and Drug Administration for use in foods and beverages in the United States, on weight management and health. Reception to follow.
