 ”Sugar


Sugar…

 * Has been defined as an edible crystalline substances such as a sucrose, lactose,and fructose, and now ? (to follow, the sugar you need to know about)

 * Is  defined as a carbohydrate that is found naturally in every fruit and vegetable.

 * Is the major product of photosynthesis, the process by which plants transform the sun’s energy into food.

 * Occurs in the largest quantities within sugar cane and sugarbeets.

Facts 

 Refined sugar is 99.9 percent pure. It contains no preservatives or additives of any kind.

 White sugar is pure sucrose, a carbohydrate. Carbohydrates provide energy, contain no fat, and like protein contribute 4 calories per gram in your diet (as opposed to the 9 calories per gram contributed by fat).

Your body treats sucrose in the same way regardless of its source. In fact, your body uses all sugars in the same way, so eating refined sugar, or honey, or sugars from any other source has the same effect on your body — it is converted into glucose and used by the cells for energy. Remember this fact for later reference.

Brown Sugar
Brown sugar is crystals in specially prepared molasses syrup with controlled natural flavor and color components.

A lso several of  the sugar refiners produce brown sugar by preparing and boiling a  special recipe, a syrup containing these components, until brown sugar crystals form.

Others produce brown sugar by blending special flavored syrup with white sugar crystals.
