What is Xylitol?
(Pronounced Xy-le-tol)
XYLITOL is a naturally occurring sweetener commonly derived from birch trees. It looks and tastes exactly like table sugar, and therefore make an excellent substitute owing to its many advantages over table sugar and other unnatural sweeteners.
Rich in taste, low in calories - a miracle sugar
XYLITOL has all the sweetness of common sugars yet 40% fewer calories. It is an ideal alternative to sugar for people who prefer a healthier lifestyle.
Diabetes management - a dream come true
Fantastic news for diabetics! With XYLITOL you can have your cake and eat it - with a clear conscious. Unlike other sugars, XYLITOL is metabolized without insulin. It therefore creates a significantly lower glycemic effect when consumed. It's GI (glycemic index) is only 7, compared with a whopping 100 regular sugar. Diabetics who use XYLITOL as an alternative to table sugar enjoy steady blood sugar levels at all times, in contrast to the dangerously fluctuating blood sugar levels they would otherwise suffer from.
Your teeth, too
Believe it or not, XYLITOL is a tooth-friendly sugar. Not only does it not encourage tooth decay, XYLITOL may actually help your teeth repair minor cavities caused by dental caries. In fact, XYLITOL-based products are promoted and endorsed by both the US Food and Drug Administration and the British Dental Association.
A Sugar that Fights Bacteria
XYLITOL stops bacteria from attaching to the tissues of the mouth, nose, and throat. Doctors have harnessed this amazing factor and are using XYLITOL to reduce the symptoms of middle ear infections (otitis media), particularly in children.
How do I use XYLITOL
Use XYLITOL in cakes, biscuits, crumbles, muffins, ice cream, hot drinks and confectionery. Sprinkle it over fresh fruit or use it to sweeten cereals or yoghurt. It is a versatile and delicious as regular sugar. When cooking or baking, replace sugar with XYLITOL in equal measurements. XYLITOL is heat-stable for cooking and baking. It also mixes and dissolves just like regular sugar.
