Why were sugar substitutes created?

Answer 1

Sugar is the sweetener of foods which gives a sweet taste to your tongue. Along with giving taste to your tongue it also gives your body glucose which in turn burns and converts in fats, Carbohydrates. For a normal person these things would be helpful for giving energy to the body but not for people effected with Diabetes, Over weight, Obesity, etc. As consuming sugar will increase body fat they are kept away from the Sugar foods. So what if a sugar loving person gets effected with obesity ? He cant resist eating those so without hurting such type of people there came into existence Sugar Substitutes. These Substitutes just substitute the taste of the Sugar not the properties of it. Like these wont generate any harmful fats or even the minimal fats thus helping them controlling their fat and fulfilling their wish to eats sugar Foods
