What is Xylitol?
Xylitol is a natural is a natural sweetener derived from the fibrous parts of plants. Similar in taste to regular sugar, but with a significant difference-xylitol has a low glycemic index and is low in calories. Additionally, xylitol has a natural, cooling moisturizing effect. The xylitol molecule contains only 5 carbon atoms rather than the 6 of most other sugar. This molecular difference is the key to xylitol's beneficial qualities.
Low Glycemic Index
XyloSweet can be substitued for most common sweeteners without compromising taste or texture. Unlike so many other sugar alternatives, XyloSweet does not have any aftertaste and it is metabolized without insulin, so it creates a significantly lower glycemic effect when eaten. Regular sugar has a glycemic index score of 85 of 100 compared to XyloSweet's glycemic index of only 7. This is great news for anyone who has to control their sugar consumption and choose foods low in glycemic effects.
