Citric Acid is a tricarboxylic acid found in citrus fruits. Citric acid is used as an excipient in pharmaceutical preparations due to its antioxidant properties. It maintains stability of active ingredients and is used as a preservative. It is also used as an acidulant to control pH and acts as an anticoagulant by chelating calcium in blood.

Taurine is an amino acid present at various levels in the body, including the brain, muscles, and retina. It plays various roles and is particularly essential for the development of the nervous system. However, it is its use in energy drinks that has made it famous.

Malic acid is an organic compound with the molecular formula C4H6O5. It contributes to the pleasantly sour taste of fruits and is used as a food additive. Malic acid has two stereoisomeric forms (L- and D-enantiomers), although only the L-isomer exists naturally. Malic acid is highly hygroscopic, soluble in water and ethanol. It has a special pleasant acidity.

Fumaric acid, or trans-butenedioic acid, is an unsaturated dicarboxylic acid with the chemical formula HOOC–CH=CH–COOH. It appears as a crystalline white powder that is odorless, combustible but weakly flammable, and slightly soluble in water.

Anhydrous dextrose does not contain water and is produced in crystalline or powder form. Dextrose, like fructose and glucose, is a monosaccharide also known as a simple sugar.

Monohydrate dextrose is another name for glucose, which is a monosaccharide sugar.

E1200-dextrose (Polydextrose) Thickening Additive, a polymer of glucose and sorbitol, is produced from glucose, sorbitol (E420), and citric acid (E330). In the human body, it behaves like dietary fiber.

Sorbitol is a natural polyol with a sweetness level approximately half that of sucrose. Unlike monosaccharides, its structure does not contain any ketone or aldehyde functions. It is primarily used as a bulk sweetener to replace sucrose.

Acésulfame K is 150-200 times sweeter than sugar. Acésulfame K is a very stable crystalline sweetener, with a chemical structure similar to saccharin. Acésulfame K is commonly used in combination with aspartame or other sweeteners because it has a synergistic effect to enhance and maintain the sweet taste of foods and beverages.

Aspartame is an artificial sweetener discovered in 1965. It is a dipeptide composed of two natural amino acids, L-aspartic acid, and L-phenylalanine, the latter in the form of a methyl ester.

Neohesperidin dihydrochalcone is an intense artificial sweetener (E959) with a high sweetness level (1,500-1,800 times the molar sweetness of sucrose).

Stevia is a sweetener extracted from the leaves of Stevia rebaudiana. It is 250 times sweeter than table sugar and has a licorice aftertaste.

Sucralose is an intense artificial sweetener, discovered in 1976. It has a sweetening power 600 to 650 times greater than sugar. It is marketed in France under the trade names Canderel or Aqualoz. It is synthesized from selective chlorination of sucrose.

Lactitol, identified by the number E966, is a polyol derived from lactose, the sugar present in milk. It is widely used as a sweetener and texturizing agent in various food and pharmaceutical products, providing an alternative to traditional sugars while imparting specific properties.

Thaumatin is a natural sweetener and flavor modifier that is derived from the katemfe fruit (Thaumatococcus daniellii), which is native to West Africa.

Microcrystalline Cellulose is a term used to refer to refined wood pulp and is used as a texture agent, anti-caking agent, fat substitute, emulsifier, extender, and filler in food production.

Gum arabic is extracted from the acacia tree, primarily cultivated in Africa, the Middle East, and certain parts of Asia.
Its main function is to act as a thickener, stabilizer, and emulsifier in foods and beverages. It is used to enhance the texture and viscosity of products.

Tartrazine, also known by the code E102, is a synthetic coloring widely used in the food industry.
