Acesulfame Potassium (Acesulfame K or Ace K) is a calorie-free sugar substitute. It is 200 times sweeter than sucrose (common table sugar), as sweet as Aspartame and one third as sweet as sucralose. It has a mildly bitter aftertaste, especially at high concentrations but is stable under heat, and even under moderately acidic of basic conditions. This allows it to be used as a food additive in products that require a longer shelf life.
Combining the various sweeteners can help mask the bitter aftertaste and create the sensation of even greater sweetness. It is used as a sweetener in health / protein shakes, where it can make some of the active ingredients taste more palatable whilst maintaining the low sugar content that many require in their end products.

Aspartame is an artificial, non-saccharide sweetener that can be used as a sugar substitute in some foods and beverages and is approximately 200 times sweeter than sucrose (common table sugar). The taste of aspartame does differ from that of table sugar but it is said to come closest to sugar’s taste profile among the approved artificial sweeteners.
Like many other sweeteners, aspartame may break down into its constituent amino acids under elevated temperature or high pH. This makes aspartame less in supplements that require stability and extended shelf lives. The stability of aspartame under heating can be improved to some extent by encasing it in maltodextrin.

Lactic acid (Milk Acid) is created through the metabolism of glucose and glycogen, and commercially it is created through the fermentation of corn-starch, potatoes, molasses, and whey. Although it is most commonly used as an acidity regulator, it can be used for other purposes in sports.
Despite popular belief Lactic Acid is used by muscles as a fuel source - something commonly found in athletes. This allows them to push harder and for longer during anaerobic exercise. The benefit of adding lactic Acid to products beyond its acidity regulation and mild preservation properties is not fully known, but increased levels may aid in a higher threshold for lactic acid build up long term (which will allow larger energy reserves when training long term also)

Sorbic Acid issued as a food preservative that is soluble in water. It is an organic compound that is usually seen as a white to colourless solid.
Traditionally, it is used as an antimicrobial agent used to prevent the growth of mould, yeast and fungi. However, adding Sorbate salts into food does lead to a slightly raised pH in the end product.
Sorbic Acid is traditionally used in foods such as cheese and bread-based goods.

Sucralose is an artificial sweetener. It is listed as low to non-caloric as the majority of it is not broken down by the body. It is usually around 600 times sweeter than Sucrose (Table Sugar). It is chemically stable under heat and a range of pH conditions, so is a suitable option for baking or for items that require a long shelf life.
It is usually paired with other sweeteners to assist with texture. Sucralose is non-hygroscopic, so does not bind to water. As a result, products made with sucralose tend to be drier and less dense.

A mixture of proteins produced from Whey, a by-product of cheese manufacture. it is usually labelled as a supplement. It is commonly manufactured from cow's milk and can come in the form of native protein, concentrated, isolated and hydrolysated. They are all different in their protein content and have various other benefits.
Whey Protein has been shown to provide a more significant benefit to muscle building compared to other proteins such as Soya, Pea and many more.
The common application for this is as a pure protein supplement to aid with muscle building. This can come in protein bars, powders, gels and many more.

Xanthan gum is a polysaccharide that’s commonly used as a food additive. It is a cream-white powder that readily dissolves in hot or cold water to create a highly viscous solution, suspension or gel at low concentrations.
It is used in foods most commonly in sauces and salad dressings. Other food uses include in ice cream to create the pleasant texture (similarly to Guar Gum and Locust Bean Gum), Gluten Free Baking to give dough or batter a “stickiness” that is usually only achieved with the gluten and in thickening egg substitutes, replacing the fats traditionally found in yolks. Toothpaste also often contains Xanthan Gum as a binder to maintain a uniform paste.

A sugar alcohol used as a sugar substitute. It is a colourless to white solid that is soluble in water. It is commonly used as a product to promote better dental health. It is absorbed slower than standard sugar and contains approximately 40% fewer calories.
It is commonly used as a substitute to sugar in many dietary supplements. It has a negligible effect on blood sugar as it does not get metabolised with insulin and can also aid weight management.
It is used primarily as it has a very similar sweetness level to sugar, but is more heat stable, making it less suitable to caramelisation in manufacturing. It does however lower the freezing point of mixtures that use it.
