Sucrose and the Vegan Diet

Sucrose is a disaccharide composed of glucose and fructose units. It is naturally found in many plants, particularly in sugarcane and sugar beets, from which it is commercially extracted and refined. Sucrose is widely used as a sweetener in various foods and beverages, offering not only sweetness but also functional properties such as texture enhancement and preservation.
