Phenolic contents, antioxidant potential and associated colour in sweet sorghum syrups compared to other commercial syrup sweeteners

Gillian Eggleston et al.

Summary: The study found that sweet sorghum syrups have higher total phenolic content compared to other common food-grade syrups. Sweet sorghum syrups showed significantly higher DPPH activities, ORAC values, and color values compared to HFCS, corn, white grain sorghum, and rice syrups.

The sensory properties and metabolic impact of natural and synthetic sweeteners

Margaux R. Mora et al.

Summary: The rise in obesity, type II diabetes, and metabolic disorders has been attributed to overconsumption of added sugars. Sugar reduction strategies rely on synthetic and natural sweeteners, with consumer interest moving towards natural options. Identifying sweeteners that mimic sucrose but have positive metabolic effects is crucial in reducing added sugar intake effectively.

Fructose and high fructose corn syrup: are they a two-edged sword?

Nasim Khorshidian et al.

Summary: High-fructose syrups are commonly used in the food industry, but their intake may have direct relationships with adverse health effects such as obesity and the metabolic syndrome, attracting negative attention recently. Studies have suggested potential correlations between high fructose-rich diet and negative effects, but generalizing these findings to high fructose corn syrup (HFCS) is not certain due to using high concentrations of pure fructose in prior research. The advantages and possible disadvantages of HFCS application and consumption are currently challenging issues between nutritionists and food technologists.

A review of the composition and toxicology of fructans, and their applications in foods and health

Deepak Kumar Verma et al.

Summary: Fructans are non-structural polymers of D-fructose obtained abundantly from plants and microbial sources, divided into three groups based on their linkages: inulin, levans, and graminan. They are widely used in the food and pharmaceutical industries, increasing viscosity in food products like ice cream and fermented milk, serving as prebiotics, and substitutes for fat and sugar in the food industry. Additionally, fructans are effective for managing chronic diseases like high blood pressure, diabetes, and colon cancer. This review covers fructans biosynthesis, utilization in industries, health impacts as prebiotics, and safety aspects.

Katja C. W. van Dongen et al.

Summary: A study found that a high AGE diet led to an increase of AGEs in plasma, kidney, and liver, as well as more inflammation, but these effects were reversed when switching to a low AGE diet.

Rethinking sugar reduction in processed foods

Rosires Deliza et al.

Summary: This article critically discusses the current status and issues of sugar reduction strategies, mentioning the impact of sugar reduction on consumer taste preferences, the potential negative effects of separating sweetness from energy load, and the limitations of voluntary sugar reduction agreements. It emphasizes the need to adopt a food systems approach to change the incentives for producing and commercializing high-sugar products.
