Product Properties
Xylitol sweetness to sucrose rather, can absorb large amounts of heat when dissolved in water, is an endothermic maximum value of all the sugar alcohol sweeteners, so eating solid form, it produces a pleasant cooling sensation in the mouth. Xylitol does not cause caries and has the effect of preventing dental caries. Metabolic regulation without insulin, completely metabolized in the human body, the heat value of 10kJ / g, can be used as thermal energy for people with diabetes.
