Different types of sugars and the role of sugar in Growing Up Milk
Sugars like natural sugar and natural added sugar are types of Carbohydrates. They are important because Carbohydrates are a main source of energy to ensure the healthy growth & development of the body and brain of growing up children.
Natural sugar called lactose can be found in milk while natural added sugar comes from plants (described as added sugar because it’s not found naturally in milk). In terms of calories, there is no difference between the two. In fact, when you take sugar naturally found in milk (lactose), it also counts as part of your total sugar consumption.
Friso Growing Up Milk is nutritionally designed using a combination of naturally present sugars like lactose, and added natural sugars.
