- They say life is sweet. Well that’s certainly the case for CrowdScience listener Trevor in Poland who wonders why he can’t stop reaching for the cookie jar.

He grew up drinking fruit juice with added sugar but wonders whether his genes could be as important as his environment when it comes to his sweet tooth, especially since his wife seem to be satisfied with mainly savoury snacks.
The World Health Organization says added sugar should constitute a maximum of 5% of our daily energy intake because it can contribute to diabetes, heart disease and obesity. But that’s tricky when you consider it’s now in everything from salad dressings, to savoury sauces.
Manufacturers have been promoting sugar alternatives for decades but recreating the unique taste and feel of it in the mouth are a challenge.
Marnie Chesterton gets to try a brand new innovation - a so-called ‘rare’ sugar that has 70 per cent of the sweetness but almost none of the calories. In nature, allulose is found in figs, but one producer has discovered a way to make it in the lab.
Does it taste as good as it claims?

can anyone summarise this podcast for me? Thank u in advance
V informative 👌 and interesting 👍
Hahah Im confused “Sweet tooth” title that I thought it means tooth is sweet 😂, but definite wrong. Correct meaning is like to eat sweet things 😂. I m adding in my idiom list. Thanks for BBC
Yeah, it’s like the idiom “to have a green thumb” (to be good at gardening or growing plants)
I have a sweet tooth, I love chocolate, cakes..but I an not a big fan of sweet drinks. I think the addiction comes from the combination sugar + lipids (worst combination). There is a study showing that
In the time since this video was posted, there have been a few studies showing adverse health effects from artificial sweeteners like splenda. Also with those containing aspartame. Unfortunately, so called "natural" no calorie sweeteners like stevia are often processed with erythritol, which was recently linked to stroke. More research is needed, but personally, I'm avoiding artificial sweeteners. Also limiting sugar intake, and limiting it to a teaspoon of honey or maple syrup in my coffee. And drinking water the rest of the time.

Why do i have a stinking arse..just a thought 😂😂
There is no dietary requirement for glucose. Not one gram. The liver is quite capable of synthesizing glucose, by a process known as 'gluconeogenesis'.
i' m so greatful to your usefull and essential vieos
Not video from call
Take more Magnesium either through supplementation or through Dead Sea salt sprays. Eat healthier foods and nutrient dense foods so your body craves less for sweets. Micro bacteria may play a role in this sweet tooth.
I love carbohydrates. orange juice from Whole oranges 🍊 are a staple...I am slim and in excellent health....some people are designed to have a natural desire for Starch and natural sugar and be slim and in good health 😊 genetics play a part too..I eat animal foods too..im also highly active
oh em gee, don't encourage my bad behavior.. i'm the same as you've described yourself , but i'm currently cutting my sugar-rich eating habits for other possible health benefits in the future (such as less breakdown of collagen in the skin, less hits on the aging brain's memory functions, etc.) .. what do you think about the science connecting high sugar intake to negative outcomes outside of physical appearance and/or current body condition ?
@@TeKeyaKrystal the thing about sugar is you have Simple ultra processed, and sugar and starch from real foods...also another important point is sugar is generally a problem in the presence of fat ! Real whole foods carbohydrates have a natural ratio of very low fat to natural starch or sugar 🤔...and so fat is a problem when sugar is eaten along...as long as far and sugar are separated sugar and starch will be fine...carbohydrates are a clean burning fuel and easy to digest , I also find them comforting, carbohydrates are also anti stress foods...dont over analyse foods or worry too much....as long as your buying and eating real whole foods and eliminating ultra processed junk foods you will be fine 🙂...
No human has any 'natural biological requirement' for carbohydrates.

There are more defining reasons than weather that make me happy. Or if the climate is too out of control its going to be very gloomy as far as the healthy balance of rain and sunshine is completely out of control

It's day 156 that we ask for a shout out. Please name our sport teams "Comets" at our middle school Antonine-Maillet in Dieppe, NB, Canada.
Thank you for a great and informative video. But can anybody help me understanding one thing, so, for a healthy non diabetic individual, is it better to drink a regular fizzy drink (not diet or sugar free) with a meal or better stick with sugar free? I’m a bit confused… Better, I mean, would it be healthier and less chance in gaining extra weight/fat ????
Thanks in advance.
The only fizzy drink you should consume is sparkling water. Anything else can cause problems.
A wonderful example of unnecessary, cruel animal testing to come about completely obvious sociological facts.
