Description
Erythritol is a sugar alcohol used as a low calorie sweetener. It provides only about 6% of the calories found in an equal amount of sugar.
WHAT IS ERYTHRITOL?
Erythritol is natural sugar replacement. Unlike artificial sweeteners designed in a lab, erythritol is found in nature and produced using natural processes.
It's a type of sugar alcohol, but don't let the name confuse you - it contains no sugar, and no ethanol (the kind of alcohol you drink). Based on its chemical structure, erythritol and other sugar alcohols are classified as polyols.
WHAT IS ERYTHRITOL MADE FROM?
You can find erythritol naturally in certain fruits, mushrooms, and fermented foods.
Commercially, erythritol can also be made as a by-product of fermenting corn. Fermentation is a natural process - the same process used to produce vinegar, kombucha, wine, beer, and pickles, among other things.

The advantages of erythritolZero calories: In the United States, Europe and Japan, erythritol is listed on food labels as zero calories per gram. The calorific value is zero because erythritol is not metabolized during its unique absorption and expulsion process. Therefore, erythritol is the only qualified zero-calorie filler sweetener for "reduced-calorie" and "light" products that require at least 25% less calories than standard formulations.High digestive tolerance: Erythritol is quickly absorbed by the small intestine and studies have shown that it does not fermentate in the human body. Therefore, the side effects of gas and diarrhea after eating foods containing large amounts of erythritol are minimal. Adults can well tolerate the daily intake of 1 g/kg body weight erythritol from various food and beverage sources.Chemicalbook for Patients with diabetes: A single dose and 14-day clinical study demonstrated that erythritol did not affect blood glucose or insulin levels. Clinical studies conducted in patients with diabetes have concluded that it may be safe to replace sucrose with erythritol in foods tailored for diabetics. Of course, people with diabetes should consider the impact of other components of erythritol containing foods on their diet.Does not promote tooth decay: Unlike other polyols, erythematol is safe for teeth and is not metabolized by oral bacteria, which break down sugars and starches to produce acids that can lead to enamel loss or tooth decay. Therefore, erythritol is noncariogenic. The substitution of polyols such as erythematol for sugar has been recognised by scientists and regulators, and their usefulness in a comprehensive programme that includes good oral hygiene.More picturesPackagingPackaged in mult-layer craft paper bag with food grade PE inner bag,net25kg/20kg/bag.
