Erythritol Organic- 100 Grams

What is erythritol? Erythritol belongs to a class of compounds called sugar alcohols . Food producers use many sugar alcohols ?such as xylitol, sorbitol, and maltitol. Most of them function as low calorie sweeteners in sugar-free or low sugar products. Most sugar alcohols are found in small amounts in nature, especially in fruits and vegetables. Because of the way these molecules are structured, they can stimulate the sweet taste receptors on your tongue. Erythritol appears to be quite different from the other sugar alcohols. To begin with, it contains many fewer calories: Table sugar: 4 calories per gram Xylitol: 2.4 calories per gram Erythritol: 0.24 calories per gram With only 6% of the calories of sugar, it still contains 70% of the sweetness.
