    Sucrose is very pure and contains no other nutrients except carbohydrates. It is a pure energy food. Excessive consumption of sucrose can cause many health problems. Common ones are obesity and tooth decay. Tooth decay is due to the bacteria in the mouth that can convert the sucrose component of the food into acid, thereby eroding the enamel of the teeth. Obesity is due to the high calorie content of sucrose without too much nutrition significance.
