So, what is glukose-fruktosesirup?
Glukose-fruktosesirup, also known as glucose-fructose syrup, is a common food ingredient that is derived from corn starch. It is a sweetener that is commonly used in a wide range of processed foods, including soft drinks, baked goods, and candies. This syrup is made by breaking down corn starch into simple sugars, such as glucose and fructose, which are then mixed together in varying proportions. The resulting syrup is sweeter and more stable than regular sugar, making it a popular choice for food manufacturers. However, due to its high fructose content, it has been linked to health concerns such as obesity and insulin resistance.
We've built a vegan ingredients scanner that classifies food ingredients as "vegan", "non-vegan", or "potentially vegan".
It allows you to avoid non-vegan ingredients - just take a picture of a product's ingredient list, and the app tells you if the product is vegan or not.
