17 Oct 2019 --- Low and no calorie sweeteners can aid a reduced-calorie diet, ultimately helping to manage and prevent conditions such as diabetes and obesity. This is according to various researchers who are presenting their findings during a symposium organized by the International Sweeteners Association (ISA) entitled Low calorie sweeteners in the human diet: Scientific evidence and recommendations about their use and benefits. This is part of the 13th European Nutrition Conference (FENS 2019), held from October 15-18 in Dublin, Ireland, and comes as industry faces increasing amounts of pressure to reformulate sugary products.
