While there are numerous kinds of sugar substitutes in foods and drinks we consume, though these sugar substitutes can help prevent weight gain in the long run, it doesn't mean you should load up on those substitutes.
Although manufacturers have recognized the common want to lose weight and be healthy, it doesn't mean some of the ingredients in these items are good for you. Also, don't give kids sugar-free drinks, and try to shy away from it yourself.
Even though you may look to a sugar substitute rather than sugar itself, be careful you don't replace it for food.
Also, when the body tastes something sweet, it automatically releases insulin. Sugar and sugar substitutes, when both get into your blood stream, they are processed as sugar anyway.
All in all, take sugar lightly when you think about consuming it. Don't drink too much sugar, and sometimes you won't expect some foods to have sugar when they do. If you buy food with labels on them, be sure to check.
