ASPARTAME
Product Detailed
Related Categories:Food Additives
CAS NO:22839-47-0
Aspartame is a potently sweet compound used as a low-calorie sugar substitute to sweeten thousands of food and beverage products.Although commonly used as a sugar substitute, aspartame actually provides calories -- just like sugar and other food components. However, because aspartame is approximately 200 times more potent than common table sugar, a mere 1/200 of a teaspoon is needed to replace each teaspoon of sugar in a food or beverage. Thus, even though aspartame provides the same number of calories as a similar weight of table sugar (16 calories per teaspoon), so little is needed to sweeten foods and beverages that its actual calorie contribution is negligible
