Using corncob as raw material, Xylitol is the sweetest of all the polyols. It is as sweet as sucrose, has no after-taste and is safe for diabetics. Xylitol has 40% less calories than sugar and, for this reason, a caloric value of 2.4 kcal/g is accepted for nutritional labelling in the EU and the USA.
In crystalline applications, it provides a pleasant, natural cooling effect, greater than that of any other polyol.
It is the only sweetener to show both passive and active anti-caries effects.

STABILITY IN RECOMMENDED STORAGE:XYLITOL C is stable to air and heat but is marginally hygroscopic. Goods in the original sealed packaging stored at temperatures below 25℃ and relative humidity less than 65% can be expected to retain stability for at least three years.
