Sweet. Smart. Metabolically Stable.

Xylitol is a naturally occurring sugar alcohol found in fibrous fruits and vegetables. It delivers the same clean sweetness as sugar with approximately 40% fewer calories, and has a glycaemic index of 7 (compared to sugar’s GI of 65).

Why Xylitol?

  • Low glycaemic index (GI 7) — Xylitol has a GI of approximately 7, significantly lower than refined sugar (GI 65), making it a popular choice among those monitoring their sugar intake.
  • Non-fermentable by oral bacteria — Unlike sucrose, xylitol is not fermented by the bacteria commonly found in the mouth, which is why it is widely used in dental-grade chewing gums and oral care products.
  • 1:1 sugar substitute — Measures and performs like sugar in hot beverages, baking, and recipes, with a clean, cooling sweetness and no bitter aftertaste.
  • 40% fewer calories — Contains approximately 2.4 kcal/g compared to sugar’s 4 kcal/g — a straightforward calorie reduction for those reducing refined sugar intake.
