Harm score: 1 (Natural substances)


Fructose, also known as fruit sugar, levulose or (3S,4R,5R)-1,3,4,5,6-Pentahydroxyhexan-2-one, is a naturally occurring sugar that is the sweetest of all naturally occurring sugars. It is a monosaccharide found in many fruits, vegetables and honey. In its pure form, this sugar has a crystalline structure, is highly soluble in water and has a pleasant sweet taste.

Fructose has a wide range of applications in the food industry. It is used to make low-calorie and diabetic foods because its glycaemic index is lower than that of glucose. It is also often included in sports drinks, where it helps to replenish energy reserves more quickly. In addition, due to its high sweetness, fructose is often used to make sweet drinks, baked goods, candies and various types of ice cream. Although fructose has many uses and benefits, it is important to consume it in moderation. Excessive consumption can lead to overweight or other health problems.
