Perfect noncaloric replacements for sugar and high fructose corn syrup just don’t exist yet. For instance, some substitute options leave a lasting sweet taste in the mouth and do not replicate the texture of sugar, resulting in dissatisfaction among consumers. However, a study recently published
Researchers have found that blends of mineral salts can make noncaloric sweeteners taste more like real sugar. The blend of potassium, magnesium, and calcium salts reduced the lingering sweetness by up to 79% and improved the mouthfeel of 10 noncaloric alternatives, making low- and zero-calorie beverages taste more like their sugary counterparts.Berberine as a Nootropic for Diabetes
Sugar substitutes are often used in sodas, baked goods, and frozen desserts, to appeal to people who want lower-calorie or low-sugar treats. But many natural or synthetic noncaloric sweeteners, such as stevia and aspartame, have a delayed sweetness, which lasts long after a food or drink is consumed.
They hypothesized that the salts compress the mucus hydrogel covering taste buds to allow rebaudioside A molecules to get through and then leave more quickly. However high concentrations were needed to achieve the desired effects, which led to off-tastes. So, the researchers wanted to test other mineral salts on commercially available noncaloric sweeteners to see if the products that they are used in could be improved.
