A member asked:
How less are the calories in fructose comparing to sucrose?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
4 cal/g: Both contain 4 cal/gram but since fructose is a bit sweeter than sucrose you can use less and therefore get fewer calories. I suspect in a typical diet it would not really be a significant difference.
