yi Answer in English. Azucares is hidden sugars from what I can find out. Also it said to limit this and did not give any specifics.
Can you substitute splenda for powdered sugar?
Personally I would not. Powdered sugar and Splenda have two unique and different textures and tastes, meaning that you should follow the recipe; if it calls for using powdered sugar to make something and not to dust or to top it with. However instead of topping something in powdered sugar I would use Splenda, even though I believe it is not the best thing for you, instead of powdered sugar since it has no calories-I mean why should you make something that is weighed down in saturated fat and calories even worse for you by adding more sugar that is just finer? I would always add Splenda since it has 0 calories and fat.
EDIT: There are easons other than calories to use Splenda-- ever hear of diabetes?
You can make your own powdered Splenda-- For every 3/4 cup of Splenda, add 2 TBSP corn starch. Put into a blender and pulse until you have the correct consistency.
Is stevia an artificial sweetener?
No, it's natural table sugar in a liquid solution with water. When parents started complaining that the first ingredient in most breakfast cereals was sugar, the manufacturers started using all the other names for sugar. Such as sucrose, glucose, corn syrup and many more.
Is aspartame organic or inorganic?
Not at all. There is nothing organic in aspartame! Sugar is actually much better for you than aspartame. If you want reasons ask me.
How is aspartame manufactured?
There are mainly six steps,
Does lite beer contain aspartame?
the answer I am getting is yes there is in some. But all breweries, with the exception of a few, do not disclose that information on their websites, nor do they advertise it. I do think it is a violation of federal law to not put the Phenylketonurics warning on something that contains phenylalanine as it can be harmful or fatal to Phenylketonurics. So I guess look at the side of the bottle and if you see the familiar warning about phenylalanine then dont drink it. ASPARTAME KILLS!!!!
What's the difference between organic sugar and non-organic sugar?
Organic maple syrup is somewhat of a misnomer as almost all maple syrup comes from trees that are grown "organically", in woodlots without the use of herbicides or pesticides. That said, some maple producers have taken the time and trouble to become certified as organic, and paid the money required for the privilege of marketing their syrup as organic.
By Federal law, pure maple syrup cannot contain anything but the sugar obtained from the sap of maple trees with no additives allowed except for a small amount of defoamer, generally a few drops of vegetable oil added to keep concentrated sap from foaming out of the pan during a hard boil as it reaches syrup density. Organic maple syrup may also contain defoamers but those must also be certified organic.
The requirements for organic syrup certification varies by state but generally involves use of lead free collection containers. Old style buckets used in sugaring sometimes contained lead solder but their use is now banned by most of the largest producer states and provinces and has been for some time.
I have seem some organic food sites misinform their readers that non certified syrup may contain formaldehyde. Nothing could be farther from the truth for at least the last 20 years or more. Using formaldehyde to sanitize a tap hole was an accepted practice in some areas at one time. That has been banned everywhere in the US since the early 90's and was never allowed in Vermont, the largest state producer in the US.
Dedication to tree management practices geared toward sustainability such as use of smaller diameter taps is also generally a part of organic syrup certification. Many producers maintain the same sustainability practices whether or not certified organic. Sustaining the health of trees is a priority for most producers, many of whom have been tapping the same trees for 3 or 4 generations or longer.
Though organic foods can be a healthier alternative in many cases, as you can see, the difference between certified organic maple syrup and that which is not certified often boils down to no more than the price you pay for it.
How many calories in one cup of splenda brown sugar?
SPLENDA (R) Granular
1 tsp = 0.5 gm carb = 2 calories
one half cup = 12 gm carb = 48 calories
1 cup = 24 gm carb = 96 calories
SPLENDA (R) Granular
1 tsp = 0.5 gm carb = 2 calories
one half cup = 12 gm carb = 48 calories
1 cup = 24 gm carb = 96 calories
This is true IF Splenda were to actually be metabolized by the body. However, Sucralose is manufactured from sucrose (table sugar). The conversion of sucrose to sucralose is made by adding three chlorine atoms to each molecule of the table sugar. This process makes the sugar indigestible so the body doesn't recognize it as a carbohydrate. Since it isn't digested like sugar, the body isn't able to use it for energy, therefore, no calories are consumed.

What country is stevia plant from?
The stevia plant is a genus, there around 240 different species, it is used as an artificial sweetener and contains no calories when processed. The leaves can also be placed straight into tea or even eaten when you have a sweet tooth
Why is too much sugar not good for you?
Two reasons- a spike in insulin and the fact that it's empty calories. We'll talk only about processed sugars and corn syrup here (not fruit sugars). Consuming a large amount of processed sugar results in a large insulin spike as your body attempts to regulate your blood sugar. It's thought that a continually high-sugar diet with these repeated insulin spikes eventually leads to insulin resistance- your blood sugar will require more and more insulin to stay in check. The theory goes that this will eventually develop into diabetes (type II) and you'll require insulin shots. Also is the fact that it's empty calories. By consuming empty sugars, you exclude other nutritious fruits, vegetables and whole grains that your day's carbohydrates could have been "spent" on. Since sugar is tasty, there's also a very good chance that you'll overeat, consuming high-sugar foods simply because they taste good and not because you're hungry, which will lead to weight gain in the long run. Fruit sugars are slightly different- they are fructose, and as such aren't as quickly absorbed as regular sugar- meaning any sort of insulin spike will be much less, especially since fruit is much less concentrated in sugar than high fructose corn syrup. Additionally, these calories from fruit sugars come with all the benefits of fruit: fiber, vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and all the other little beneficial compounds we're still pinning down. So when you're getting sugars from fruit, your aren't getting empty calories at all- so eat your fruit if you want something sweet!
Why do you feel nausea after consuming sugar?
as all though its a sweet substance that many people enjoy its very sickly and heavy if consumed in large quantities or on its own it can be quite sickly although little bits at a time are enjoyable its usually to strong for your stomach or its a sugar rush
Both are not harmful in moderation.
Salt could be considered more harmful as it requires a much smaller amount before it becomes "unhealthy" (6 grams per day), causing water imbalances in your cells. This can later lead to problems such as heart disease, and skin diseases.
But on the other hand, there are more health issues caused by overconsumption of sugary foods, the most common being Diabetes Type 2.
What is stevia called in Hindi?
It is a Brazilian plant used as an alternative for sugar with zero calory, since the origin in in Brazil, no alternative name in Hindi or Malayalam
What is the process of melting sugar?
Sugar is dissolved in water at any temperature; increasing the temperature the solubility increase.
What is the function of reducing sugars?
Many sugars contain aldehyde groups. These can be chemically "reduced" to a less oxidized state, i.e., that of an alcohol. That is the reason for the terminology. The concepts of reduction and oxidation is a suitable one for college chemistry, but not for this forum. It takes more than a few words to explain. Simple reducing sugars are able to cause reduction of silver ions to silver metal and cause deposition of a silver mirror finish on the container holding them.
Where did the world enviromental conference on aspartame take place?
Nowhere, there was no world environmental conference on aspartame. This appears to be related to the internet rumor regarding Nancy Markle, a pseudonym for an unidentified emailer. It appears to primarily have been misquoted from a presentation made by anti-aspartame activist Betty Martini who spoke at the "World Environmental Conference" at Elizabeth City State University in Elizabeth City, North Carolina in November of 1995.
The claims made in that presentation have been largely debunked by both the Senior Medical Advisor for the Multiple Sclerosis Foundation, Dr. David Squillacote, MD, and the American Diabetes Association.
The internet is currently so clogged with the proliferation of this particular Conspiracy Theory, that further research online will yield little other than rampant speculation and little fact.
