Created "sugar for weight loss."

Scientists have found a way to get the sweet protein brazzein, a harmless sugar substitute that can be an alternative to carbohydrate sugars. At the same time, it is 2,000 times sweeter than regular sugar, the researchers say. A new technology for the production of brazzein will help reduce the amount of “hidden sugar” in food and will make a significant contribution to the fight against obesity, scientists believe.
