Abstract
En este capítulo revisamos el papel y los posibles riesgos/beneficios de los edulcorantes como parte de la alimentación. Tras su aparición e interés por los efectos beneficiosos atribuidos a los mismos, frente a diferentes situaciones y patologías (obesidad, diabetes, caries, etc.), cada vez son más numerosos, sin embargo, los estudios que parecen constatar la ineficacia de su uso. Por tanto, se requieren más investigaciones que aporten datos convincentes de su efectividad a largo plazo, así como de la ausencia de efectos negativos, derivados de su uso. El interés del capítulo reside en examinar los aspectos distintivos de los edulcorantes frente al azúcar, considerándose ésta como patrón de comparación. Nos centraremos pues, en las otras sustancias que habitualmente se utilizan para edulcorar los alimentos en lugar del azúcar.
In this chapter we review the role and potential benefits of non-caloric sweeteners, as part of the diet. After appearing and interest in the beneficial effects attributed to them, face different situations and conditions (obesity, diabetes...), more and more numerous studies, show their ineffective use. In conclusion, further research and results are needed to provide convincing evidence of their long-term effectiveness and the absence of negative effects from their use. The interest of the chapter lies in examining the distinctive aspects of sweeteners compared with sugar, measured as the standard of comparison. We will focus then on the other substances that are commonly used to sweeten foods instead of sugar.
