Zero-calorie products may not be healthy due to chemical additives

Experts warn that zero-calorie products are not always healthy, often containing chemical additives that can cause adverse health effects. These products, marketed as zero-fat or zero-sugar, may compensate by increasing sodium or fat content. Sweeteners, while providing sweetness, can have negative health impacts when consumed excessively. While beneficial for diabetics to manage blood sugar, zero-sugar items should be part of a balanced diet, with a focus on natural, minimally processed foods.
