Molecular science may hold the key to us using less sugar. Nestlé says it has found a way to hollow out sugar molecules, meaning they dissolve faster for a better rush.
The world’s largest packaged foods group said that for the moment only some confectionery goods would benefit, but the technique cuts a whopping 40% off the sugar content.

The company is patenting its findings and says it will start rolling product out from 2018.
Salt has also previously been the subject of molecular design.
