I.C.S Flashcards
Devis molecules
Sugar alcohol erythritol (70%)(used alongside stevia)
Allulose (7+chicory root fiber0%) = naturally in figs and raisens (d-piscos naturally occurring monosaccharide)
Erythritol (similar to allulose) (cooling effect)
The sugars of tomorrow
Goal is to swap out a portion of sugar for no- or low calorie sweeteners
Fructis–enzyme–> allulose (absorbed when metabolized has no effect on glycemic response
Sugar Syrup Aspartame Evaporated cane juice Concentrated white grape juice
The sugars of yesterday
Ketogenic
High protein, low carbohydrates diets
Synthetic alternatives
Sucralose (600x sugar) similar to sucrose but has a Cl
Synthetic sweeteners
Aspartame Acesulfane potassium (200x) xk
Plant breeding
Enzyme technology
Organism engineering
Mass market
Rebaudioside A
Most abundant sweet molecule in stavia leaf
Bitter aftertaste
Reb M (starless)
Reb M and Reb D
Glycosides of Reb A
Made from sugar via fermentation with modified microbe

Gymnema sylvestre
Sweet taste blocking compound
Remove tannins and polyphenols that give bitterness make lozeng to attach to tongue
Acts as antagonist
