consumers with their strange aftertastes or sometimes without affecting the consumers’ health. It is unreasonable to assume that natural sugar substitutes are better than artificial sugar substitutes because calorie-free natural sweeteners are not cleared of all of the risks to human health. These products generally mess with gut bacteria, causing metabolic dysfunction like glucose intolerance, and leading consumers’ to over-eat their products. The growing population in China demands for more quantities of artificial sweeteners and such products to satisfy the growing demands. The five year population growth in China is depicted in the below graph.
Despite facing many obstacles to find an answer to artificial sweetener, many companies continue to their research on artificial sweeteners. Few scientists believe that fixing sugar is a better option than replacing it with artificial ones. Many food and beverage manufacturers in China have followed their path to cut down on sugars in their products. Cyclamate is highly consumed artificial sweetener because cyclamate is only 30 times as sweet as table sugar. Saccharin is 300 times sweeter than sugar. Use of saccharin as a sugar replacement in foods and beverages, as it sweetness masks the bitter taste of other ingredients in personal care products such as toothpaste, mouthwash and pharmaceuticals.
According to the research report“ PRODUCTION OF HIGH INTENSITY SWEETENER IN CHINA 2014-2016”, China ranks second globally in the consumption of sucralose which is a sweetener 600 times as sweet as sucrose and has an appealing sugarlike taste. Also, the consumption of stevia extract has increased in China. The stevia plant is the main source of stevia extract which is cultivated in bulk in China and the extracted stevia is used as a sweetener. High-intensity sweeteners are available in plenty in China and the country is the world’ s largest production source of HIS. Almost all the food producers in China are impacted by the new regulations along with consumers’ awareness in the lifestyle diseases such as obesity and diabetes. China is expecting an above average growth in saccharin consumption in the coming years. Acesulfame K / aspartame and acesulfame K / sucralose are expectd to grow enoromously in China in the coming years due to their very appealing sucroselike taste.
