Sugar Substitute
Diabetics and those from families with a tendency towards diabetes can benefit from using sugar substitutes as part of a balanced diet.
Diabetes is fast becoming a major concern throughout the Western world. It can be caused by genetic factors or by lifestyle. In many cases it is a combination of both. People with a genetic predisposition towards diabetes can trigger its onset by living an unhealthy lifestyle and in particular through chronic obesity. For people who already have diabetes, managing their sugar intake is vital to preventing the worst of its effects. For people who are at risk of diabetes, limiting sugar intake and watching their weight may prevent the onset of diabetes or at least make it less severe. In either case, using sugar substitutes can be very helpful.
