Xylitol is a naturally occurring
five-carbon sugar that belongs to the class of sugar alcohols.
It is found in many fruits and vegetables and is even produced
by the human body itself. It is as sweet as sucrose, but
has 40% fewer calories. Xylitol is derived from
renewable sources such as birch wood.
Numerous studies have shown
that xylitol can help reduce the incidence of dental
cavities. Xylitol is a key ingredient in our chewable multivitamin/multimineral supplement for children.
It can also be found in our
dental care toothpaste.
