Sweetener blends

Different low-calorie sweeteners show differences in properties such as perceived sweetness, "mouth feel", duration of sweet taste, aftertaste, solubility and stability at various pH values and temperatures. Not only is a single low-calorie sweetener safe but also combined low-calorie sweeteners are safe. The scientific basis on which food ingredients, including low-calorie sweeteners, are approved includes a thorough understanding of how each ingredient is handled by the body. They have a different metabolic route, meaning that a low-calorie sweetener cannot have an effect on another low-calorie sweetener in the body. This also means there is no combined effect for low-calorie sweeteners.
