Product Description:
\nErythritol is a polyol or sugar alcohol of natural origin. It was discovered by the British chemist
\nJohn Stenhouse in 1848. The name erythritol may sound chemical, but it is a completely natural
\nsugar substitute. It does not contain alcohol or sugar. Erythritol is a sugar substitute isolated from
\nnature, which looks and tastes very similar to sugar (30% less sweet than sugar).
\nIt is found in a variety of foods such as pears, watermelons, corn, mushrooms and grapes. It is also
\nfound in some fermented foods and drinks such as beer, cheese, sake, soy sauce and wine. On an
\nindustrial scale, it is produced from glucose by fermentation using yeast (Moniliella pollinis).
\nIt is a good alternative to sugar because it does not add caloric value to the food. It does not have
\nany laxative effects, which makes it significantly different from other sweeteners. Namely, in the
\nbody, most erythritol is absorbed into the bloodstream in the small intestine. Most of the ingested
\nerythritol (up to 90 percent) is excreted unchanged through the urine within 24 hours. Only 10
\npercent of ingested erythritol goes to the large intestine, and from there it is excreted in feces.
\nIt is thermostable, which means it does not lose its sweetness even up to 160\u00b0C, and it is suitable for
\npreparing various desserts.
\nIn the food industry, it has been used for decades to sweeten candies, chocolates, chewing,
\ngum,jams, fruit yogurts, shakes and various drinks.
\nHealth benefits of organic erythritol:<\/p>\n
\u2022 the glycemic index of erythritol is zero. People who struggle with diabetes are forced to look
\nfor alternatives to various foods with the lowest glycemic index, so erythritol is ideal for

\n\u2022 People who are on an anti-candida diet, a healthy diet or a diet (keto, paleo) usually limit or
\neliminate sugar, but thanks to erythritol, they don\u2019t have to say goodbye to their favorite
\nsweet taste. Due to its low calorie content (it contains only trace amounts of calories), this
\nproduct can be consumed without fear of extra pounds, but of course it should be done in
\nmoderation.
\n\u2022 does not cause bloating or intestinal problems. It does not have any laxative effects, which
\nmakes it significantly different from other sweeteners. The main reason for this is that more
\nthan 90% of erythritol is absorbed before entering the colonne
\n\u2022 protects against infection and does not feed bad bacteria in our body
