Sugar is a sweet-tasting, soluble carbohydrate that provides quick energy but does not offer sustained energy.

No, fats and proteins do not contain sugar.

Sugars are stored in the muscles and liver. Excess sugar is converted into fat, which can lead to weight gain.

Fiber contains no sugar but helps regulate sugar absorption.

Natural sugars come from plants, which are complex carbohydrates containing sugars, large amounts of nutrients, and fiber. These complex carbohydrates are then broken down by the body's enzymes into simple sugars, nutrients, and fiber. 

Refined sugars are processed from plant carbohydrates, removing nutrients and fiber, leaving only simple sugars. Granulated sugar as an example.

Artificial sweeteners are chemically made sugar substitutes, offering sweetness without calories.

• One gram of sugar = One gram of carbohydrates = Four calories
• One gram of protein = Four calories
• One gram of fat = Nine calories

Yes and No: Simple sugars are a type of carbohydrate, while complex carbohydrates contain sugars along with essential nutrients and fiber.

Yes, Stevia is a natural sweetener derived from the Stevia plant.

The body burns energy in this order: Simple sugars first, then carbohydrates, followed by fats, and proteins last.

Sugar is pure energy, absorbed quickly by the body, causing energy spikes. The body uses sugar first for energy before switching to burn fat once sugar storage is depleted.
