Sodium Saccharin (benzoic sulfimide) is an artifical sweetener and invented first in 1878.
Saccharin is used as a single sweetener or often with other sweeteners in diet products, to expend the shelf life and balance the sweetness. Saccharin derives its name from the word "saccharine", meaning "sugary".
Sodium Saccharin is white crystal powder with slight sweeteness which is about 300 times sweeter than sugar and contains no calories. It is one of the most commonly used artificial sweeteners in soft drinks and is used in a variety of other products, including fruit juices, chewing gum, mouthwash, toothpaste and pharmaceuticals.
