"Confusion about SWEETENERS"?

Surprisingly, not all sweetened foods have the same impact on health. For instance, some studies suggest that yogurt—even with sugar—may help reduce the risk of diabetes, possibly due to its probiotic and nutrient profile. Still, understanding early warning signs and managing intake is key—see our Type 2 diabetes warning for what to look out for.

The "" says it all.

Here is our take on what the industry should do.

(1) Admit and embrace science and recommendations from independent public organisations. Let's not pretend there is confusion.

(2) Instead of looking for a new processing technology or a new formulation to avoid sugar/sweeteners that will deteriorate the nutritious / processing value of orange juice... Shall we find a way of making oranges (eaten whole) available and accessible for all?
