 The increasing trend towards Obesity and
its associated health risks provides
incentive and opportunity for the food
industry to develop foods that are reduced
in
calories. The desire to combine indulgence
with benefits has propelled the market for
Sugar less functional products to new
heights. Ensigns have developed a range of
Low Calorie Sweeteners under the Sweetos
umbrella to help address the demand of
reduced calorie products. Sweetos is a low
calorie, high intensity sweetener made
from Fructo-Oligo-Saccharide and
Sucralose. Sweetos has a clean sweet taste
with no after taste, is Low in calorie,
has no adverse health effects, is
economical and can be used to replace
sugar in a wide variety of food products
and beverages.

Fructooilgosaccharied(FOS)/
Oligofrcto /
Oligofructon
|
It is approved as a soluble fiber
and it helps to reduce serum LDL
Cholesterol Levels.
Fructo-Oligo-Saccharide is a very good
Prebiotic, which helps to improve immunity
and is a healthy sweetener for Diabetics.

Sucralose
|
|
Sucralose is derived from sugar
through a multi-step patented
manufacturing process that
selectively substitutes three
atoms of chlorine for three
hydroxyl groups on the sugar
molecule. This change produces a
sweetener that has no calories,
yet is 600 times sweeter than
sucrose. Sucralose tastes like
sugar. It has a clean, quickly
perceptible, sweet taste that does
not leave an unpleasant
aftertaste. The exceptional
stability of sucralose allows both
food manufacturers and consumers
to use it virtually anywhere sugar
is used, including cooking and
baking.Sucralose is not utilized
for energy in the body because it
is not broken down like sucrose.
It passes rapidly through the body
virtually unchanged. Sucralose has
been extensively tested in more
than 100 studies during a 20-year
period and found to be a safe and
remarkably inert ingredient. One
advantage of sucralose for food
and beverage manufacturers and
consumers is its exceptional
stability. It retains its
sweetness over a wide range of
temperature and storage conditions
and in solutions over time.
Because of its stability, food
manufacturers can use sucralose to
create a number of great-tasting
new foods and beverages in
categories such as canned fruit,
low-calorie fruit drinks, baked
goods, and sauces and syrups.
Sucralose also can be used as a
sweetener in nutritional
supplements, medical foods, and
vitamin/mineral supplements.

Isomalt
|
|
Isomalt is a unique, excellent
tasting sugar-free bulk
sweetener. Because the same
amount of isomalt is used in
products as would be used if
they were sweetened with sugar,
isomalt-containing products have
the same appearance and texture
as those made with sugar.It has
only a small impact on blood
sugar levels and does not
promote tooth decay. It has 2
kilocalories/g, half the
calories of sugars.Isomalt
offers benefits that suit
changing life-styles and
contemporary guidelines for
healthy diets. It enlarges food
choices for the growing number
of people who would like to make
moderate, but not extreme,
improvements in their diet. It
is ideal for consumers who want
to adopt a healthier lifestyle,
as long as foods still taste
good.Because of its lower
caloric value and other health
benefits, isomalt is useful for
people who are trying to reduce
their total energy intake
moderately while still being
able to enjoy their favorite
desserts, candy, and other
sweetened foods occasionally as
part of meals or snacks.
Sweetos has become an ideal
sugar replacement in a wide range
of food and beverage applications
both for their functional,
sensorial as well as nutritional
properties.

Sweetos &
Diabetes :
The Need For a Sugar
Substitute
Sugar is the
naturally occurring nutrient that
makes food taste sweet. It is a
carbohydrate along with starch.
Sugar is converted in the body to
glucose. It is a useful source of
energy for the human body up to a
certain age, beyond which it gives
excess calories that leads to
weight gain and causes health
risks. Obesity is a very common
disease and much more serious than
generally realized. In an era of
gross over-nutrition every
individual can switch to sugar
free substitute like Sweetos,
which can help control daily
calorie intake and prevent life
style diseases.
|
Safe for Diabetes :
Clinical studies have shown
people with diabetes can safely
consume sucralose. Sucralose is
not recognized by the body as
sugar or as a carbohydrate. It is
not metabolized by the body for
energy and does not affect blood
glucose levels. Sucralose has no
effect on blood glucose
utilization, carbohydrate
metabolism or insulin
production.Products sweetened with
sucralose provide good-tasting,
lower-calorie alternatives for
people with diabetes who are
interested in reducing their
caloric or sugar intake.
