Trade Assurance food additives sweetener erythritol powder
Erythritol:
Erythritol is food additive with a sugar alcohol (or polyol) .
It cannot be metabolized by oral bacteria, so it does not contribute to tooth decay.
In addition, erythritol, similarly to xylitol, has antibacterial effects against streptococci bacteria, reduces dental plaque, and may be protective against tooth decay.
What is Erythritol? Erythritol is a calorie-free sweetener and sugar alternative.
It is a polyol (sugar alcohol), and found naturally in some fermented foods and fruits.
1. Erythritol is a very popular sweetener, which is unique natural polyol sweeteners with non calorie and clear cool mouth feel.
2. Erythritol is a polyol (sugar alcohol) which is very popular for use in baking and as a general sweetener in low carb diets.
3. Erythritol, as alternatives to sugars and as part of a comprehensive program including proper dental hygiene has been recognized by the American dental association.
Properties of Erythritol :
1. Low in calories: Erythritol has a very low caloric content; its value is 0. 2 calories per gram for food labeling purposes in the united states and 0 (zero) calories per gram.
2. High digestive tolerance: Erythritol is rapidly absorbed in the small intestine due to its small molecular size and structure.
3. Safe for diabetes' person: Single dose and 14-day clinical studies demonstrate erythritol does not affect blood serum glucose or insulin levels.
4. Do not cause tooth decay: Erythritol like other polyols is resistant to metabolism by oral bacteria which break down sugars and starches to produce acids which may lead to tooth enamel loss and cavities formation. According to a 3-year study in 485 school children, erythritol was even more protective against dental caries than xylitol and sorbitol.
Overall, erythritol appears to be an excellent sweetener.
*It contains almost no calories.
*It has 70% of the sweetness of sugar.
*It doesn't raise blood sugar or insulin levels.
*Human studies show very little side effects mainly minor digestive issues in some people.
*Studies where animals are fed massive amounts for long periods of time show no adverse effects
