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 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.
