What is erythritol

    Erythritol is a sugar alcohol (polyol). It has a good flavour comparable to sugar but with a slight cooling effect. 

It has little or no aftertaste. It has only 0.2 calories per gram, 5% of the value of sugar. And because it has 65% of the sweetness of sugar this makes it excellent as part of a calorie controlled diet. It also has a low glycemic index and is consequently suitable for diabetics. It is a natural product found in some fruits and mushrooms. It has been used as a sugar substitute in Japan since the 1990s.

Natural honey sweetener. It does not tend to have the laxative effect, as do other sugar alcohols, though again, it would be wise to limit consumption to no more than 80gm per day.

 

Uses:

    It is used in the beverage industry in the USA and Japan. It can also be used in food manufacture and chocolate, though usually it 

needs to be mixed with other sweeteners to achieve the required texture and sweetness level. It is heat stable and can be used for cooking at home. It is a major ingredient of Truvia sweetener.

 

Benefits:

    It has a very low glycemic index (Only 1 - sugar is 65) and this makes it suitable as part of a diabetic diet. Like all sugar alcohols  

it is not metabolized by bacteria in the mouth and so it does not contribute to tooth decay. Xylitol and Sorbitol have been shown to be beneficial in the prevention of caries and tooth decay, in fact they have been shown to assist in remineralization of minor enamel defects. Trials have shown Erythritol to be at least as good, and possibly more effective than Xylitol in this regard.

 

Metabolism:

    Sugar alcohols are not readily digested in the stomach, they enter the intestines where bacteria ferment them. This results is 

partial absorption of calories from the carbohydrate presensst, and often flatulence. Unlike all other sugar alcohols, Erythritol is

mostly absorbed into the blood stream from the small intestine, where it is excreted in the urine. Therefore it does not add calories to the diet, and is less likely to cause bloating, gas or cramps.

 

Concerns:

    No major concerns. Just avoid over consumption - like everything else! In rare cases some individuals can be allergic to this 

substance.

 

Safety Guidelines:

   The FDA does not issue any recommendation for ADI (acceptable daily intake) NCIB trials found it to be safe at 

levels of 1gm per kg of body weight. For an average person this would be 70 to 80gm per day.

 

Zero calorie:

    Erythritol has 0 calories per gram for food labeling purposes in the United States, Europe and Japan. This 0 calorie value is based on erythritol’s unique absorption and limitation process which does not involve the metabolism of erythritol. Thus, erythritol is uniquely qualified as a zero calorie bulk sweetener for formulating "reduced calorie" and "light" products which require a 25 percent or more calorie reduction from the standard formulation.

    Single dose and 14-day clinical studies demonstrate erythritol does not affect blood serum glucose or insulin levels. Clinical studies conducted in people with diabetes conclude that erythritol may be safely used to replace sucrose in foods formulated specifically for people with diabetes. Of course, those with diabetes should consider the impact on their diet of other ingredients used in foods sweetened with erythritol. Does not cause tooth decay: Erythritol like other polyols is resistant to metabolism by oral bacteria which break down sugars and starches to produce acids which may lead to tooth enamel loss and cavities formation. They are, therefore, non-cariogenic. The usefulness of polyols, including erythritol, as alternatives to sugars and as part of a comprehensive program including proper dental hygiene has been recognized by the . The FDA has approved the use of a "does not promote tooth decay" health claim in labeling for sugar-free foods that contain erythritol or other polyols.

Conclusions and Summary:

 

    Excellent low calorie sweetener. It is suitable and useful for diabetics. It is not only harmless to teeth but has been shown to inhibit

 

decay and even assist in partial tooth remineralization. Not yet widely available, though this is improving. Can be used in cooking withvery good results. Often mixed with other intense sweeteners such as stevia.
