Erythritol is a good-tasting , zero-calorie sweetener which is ideal for different foods.
It belongs to a family of sugar alcohols known as polyols or Polyols , abundant in fruits such as strawberries, pears, melons and grapes.
Benefits of erythritol:
- It can be consumed by diabetics : Having a glycemic index of 0, it does not increase blood sugar levels and does not metabolize glucose, making it suitable for people with this condition.
- Its consumption can reduce the risk of suffering from health problems: Some heart diseases, type 2 diabetes or even some types of cancer are some of the diseases whose incidence could be reduced if sugar consumption were reduced, replacing it with products with erythritol.
- It is ideal for those looking to lose weight without giving up sweet flavors: Unlike other polyalcohols, erythritol is not absorbed in the intestinal tract and therefore is not metabolized into glucose, preventing your body from converting it into fat.
- It is healthy for your teeth : It is resistant to the metabolism of bacteria in the mouth that break down sugars and starches to produce acids that can cause the loss of tooth enamel and the formation of cavities.
