sugar alcohols and weight management
Sugar alcohols are a type of low-calorie sweetener found in many processed foods. They provide fewer calories compared to regular sugar, making them popular for weight management. By using sugar alcohols in place of sugar, individuals can reduce their calorie intake while still enjoying sweet flavors. However, excessive consumption of sugar alcohols might cause digestive issues, so moderation is important for effective weight management.
