Properties: Xylitol is a naturally occurring carbohydrate. Pure xylitol is a white crystalline substance that looks and tastes like sugar, with a sweetness equivalent to that of sucrose, soluble in water (1.6g/ml approximately) and slightly soluble in ethanol and methanol, with a melting point of 92℃-96℃, a boiling point of 216℃, and a calorific value of 16.72KJ/g (as the same with glucose). As it absorbs heat when dissolving in water, so when it is eaten in solid form, you will have a happy and cool mouthfeel. 10% xylitol solution has a pH value of 5.0-7.0. Xylitol is used around the world, mainly as a sweetener in chewing gums and pastilles. Other applications include oral hygiene products, such as toothpaste, fluoride tablets and mouthwashes. The pharmaceutical industry uses xylitol as a sweetener in its products.

 

[Benefits of Xylitol]:

1. Delicious sweet taste without unpleasant aftertaste.

2. The sweetness is equivalent to sucrose sweetness at room temperature, and of 1.2  times of sucrose sweetness at room temperature.

3. Provides one third fewer calories than sugar.

4. Helps reduce the development of dental caries.

5. Reduces plaque formation

6. Increase salivary flow to aid in the repair of damaged tooth enamel

7. Be useful as a sugar alternative for people with diabetes( on the advice of their healthcare providers)
