Recently, a Brazzein Sweetener has been approved by the FDA, which has caused quite a stir in the candy industry.
Brazzein is a sweet protein found in the West African fruit of Oubli (Pentadiplandra brazzeana Baillon), which was first isolated in 1994, and is a natural sweet protein. It is extremely sweet, about 1,500 times sweeter than sucrose, but contains almost no calories and does not cause blood sugar fluctuations. It is very friendly to diabetics and people who focus on weight management. At the same time, it also has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, which can help prevent allergic reactions.
At a time when the concept of healthy eating is becoming more and more popular, reducing sugar intake has become an inevitable trend in the candy industry. The emergence of Brazzein Sweetener has undoubtedly brought us new hope.
