what is the difference nutritionally between artificial and natural sugars, like why are the sugars from my apple any better for me than the sugars from my apple lollipop if it’s all still sugar?
In: Chemistry
Well there’s not a chemical difference between the fructose in the apple and the fructose in the lollipop. There are two reasons the apple is better for you. 1. The apple has some vitamin C and probably others 2. The apple has dietary fiber and other complex carbs, which will lead to a smoother blood sugar curve than if you ate the same number of calories in lollipop form.
