Alternative sweeteners are sweeteners made from unconventional sources such as the stevia plant, as well as through synthetic processes. Alternative sweeteners are characterized by having a lower glycemic load than conventional sugar, which allows consumers to eat alternative sweeteners without worrying about the adverse consequences of excessive sugar consumption. The sweetness in alternative sweeteners is provided by chemicals that do not have the same effect on the human body as conventional sugar, which is most fructose and glucose. Other sugar molecules, especially ones that are not digested inside the body or comprise a lower glycemic load, are used in alternative sweeteners market. Substances such as stevia are not absorbed at all in the body, but still provide sweetness in terms of taste.
Such substances are finding increasing demand across the world due to the increasing awareness about the adverse effects of excessive sugar consumption. Sugar consumption is strongly linked to the development of obesity, diabetes, heart conditions, and others, including neurodegenerative diseases and arthritis. This has led to an increasing demand for sweeteners that provide the sweetness of sugar without providing any of the adverse health effects. This has been a major driver for the global alternative sweeteners market. Growing commercialization of alternative sweeteners and their increasing availability in conventional distribution channels such as supermarkets is also likely to be a major driver for the global alternative sweeteners market over the forecast period.
