2015

Sodium saccharine, like aspartame, stevia, and sucralose, is an artificial sweetener. It is sweeter

than sucrose, however may result in a bitter or metallic aftertaste. Sodium saccharine dissociates

into various components when dissolved in water. It has been in use on a commercial basis for

over 100 years in countries like the U.S. Inert bulking agents are often added for commercial

applications so that it becomes easier to use.

Sodium saccharine is used as table sugar substitute. Its other uses include flavored gelatin,

canned fruit, bakery products, salad dressings, diet sodas, and jams. Medicine and toothpaste are

also sweetened using this chemical. Its advantage over aspartame is that it can tolerate high heat

and hence can be used for cooking and baking. It is often blended with other sweeteners so that

each sweetener masks the other’s off-taste. Sodium saccharine is also used in industrial products

such as metalworking fluids and adhesives.

In 2010, the USEPA (United States Environmental Protection Agency) eliminated sodium

saccharine from its list of hazardous materials. Also, the USFDA (United States Food and Drug

Administration), in 2000, removed the regulation that called for a warning label indicating its

presence in products. Yet, certain health risks are associated with its ingestion. It is observed that

this chemical may be carcinogenic, cause allergic reactions in some individuals, and even result

in diabetes and weight gain.
