Sucralose

Sucralose, a zero-calorie sweetener derived from sugar, is a popular choice among those who want to enjoy sweetness without the calorie baggage. It's made through a process that removes three hydrogen-oxygen groups from the sugar molecule and replaces them with chlorine atoms, resulting in a sweet taste that's unaffected by heat and can be used in baking and cooking. Despite its synthetic nature, sucralose has been deemed safe by regulatory bodies worldwide. It's suitable for those managing weight or sugar intake. However, unlike sugar, it doesn't contribute to tooth decay or alter blood sugar levels, making it an appealing alternative.
