Found naturally in raspberries, strawberries, plums and even cauliflower. Finnish xylitol is xylitol extracted from birch. The term xylitol itself can refer to other fruits and vegetables. Then it is most often made from corn. Depending on the product from which it is extracted, we have different extraction methods. Birch is made by fermentation carried out by bacteria and yeast. The one made from corn, on the other hand, is produced by hydrolysis of biomass.
Xylitol is mostly birch sugar, but can also be obtained from other plant products. It is a polyhydroxy or sugar alcohol, a derivative of xylose. Its structure stimulates the receptors responsible for the sweet taste on the tongue.
In the diet, xylitol is most commonly found in chewing gum and candy. It is increasingly being used as a sugar substitute in healthy versions of candy and cakes. Perfect for sweetening coffee, tea, smoothies, desserts and ice cream. It is heat stable, so we can easily substitute xylitol for sugar in recipes.
The presence of xylitol in chewing gum is no coincidence. When xylitol is consumed, it is not fermented with bacteria and therefore no acids are formed that negatively affect tooth enamel. In addition, it lowers the pH of the oral cavity and increases the production of saliva, which has a positive effect on the condition of our teeth. Xylitol also facilitates the absorption of calcium, which is why it is worth including in the diet for people with deficiencies. However, it does have a downside, if consumed in excess it can cause depletion, so it pays to control the amount consumed throughout the day.
INTEREST
Our body is able to produce xylitol itself, it is produced in the metabolism during digestion.
When replacing sugar with xylitol in recipes, we add the same amount of sugar as regular sugar because its sweetness is similar.
In food it appears under the symbol E967.

Statt normalem Zucker verwende ich Xylit. Ich habe in Sachets bestellt und das ist eine großartige Lösung, wenn Sie nicht zu Hause sind, z.B. in einem Restaurant oder bei meinen Freunden, weil ich es immer gebrauchen kann 😋. ich empfehle
