[ About Xylitol ] Xylitol is a naturally-occurring 5-carbon polyol sweetener. It is found in many fruits and vegetables, and is even produced by the human body itself. Xylitol is the sweetest of all the polyols. It is as sweet as sucrose, and is safe for diabetics. Xylitol has 40% less calories than sugar and, for this reason, a caloric value of 2.4 kcal/g is accepted for nutritional labeling in the EU and the USA. In crystalline applications, it provides a pleasant, natural cooling effect, greater than that of any other polyol. It is the only sweetener to show both passive and active anti-caries effects.
