Is pure cane sugar processed sugar?

Answer 1

If it's white in color, it's processed. Regardless of whether it's cane sugar or beet sugar.

Turbinado sugar or "raw sugar" is a light brown, and has been less processed.

Brown sugar used to be less processed, but now for the most part is just white sugar mixed with molasses.

High fructose corn syrup is the worst sweetener you can possibly ingest.

From a health standpoint, all of the above are considered processed sugar, all have the same calories and with the exception of the corn syrup, they all have the same impact on blood sugar (The syrup is much worse)

Unprocessed sugars are the ones found naturally in fruit and vegetables, and they're not nearly as bad for you.

Answer 2

Pure Cane Sugar is the sugar that comes directly from the cane. It is processed to become granulated.

Processed Sugar is basically the same thing, but is "more processed".

Answer 3

Try honey, its lovely once you get used to the taste it gives the tea. Its also gorgeous in warm milk with cinnamon and nutmeg Yummmmmm Artificial sweeteners can be bad for you but you would have to be taking very large amounts of them to do this. If you want to use sugar use brown as it is less processed and gives a more sustained energy release rather than the "rush" of white sugar.

Answer 4

It is proccessed to some degree, but no where near the amount white sugar is.

White sugar is made from sugar beets. Cane sugar tastes better and is nutrionally better for you as well.

Answer 5

almost all sugar is processed, the worst sugar is white sugar, and the best is turbanado, or raw sugar.
