Pharmacology
Zero Tablet is a zero-calorie artificial sweetener that is about 600 times sweeter than sugar. Zero Tablet is derived from sucrose, where three hydroxyl groups are replaced by three chlorine atoms. Since Zero Tablet is made from sugar, Zero Tablet tastes like sugar. The carbon-chlorine bonds are very stable, preventing Zero Tablet from being broken down for energy, making Zero Tablet calorie-free. These bonds also provide heat stability, allowing Zero Tablet to withstand cooking and baking without losing sweetness. Zero Tablet passes through the body unchanged, without being metabolized or providing any calories. Zero Tablet does not cause tooth decay, affect carbohydrate metabolism, or impact fetal or neonatal development. Zero Tablet is safe for diabetic patients as Zero Tablet does not interfere with glucose absorption or insulin secretion.
Dosage & Administration
Acceptable daily intake: 5-15 mg per kg of body weight. Typically, one tablet (8 mg) is enough to sweeten a cup of tea or coffee.
