description Product Description
Xylitol is widely used as a sugar substitute in various food products, particularly in chewing gum, candies, and baked goods, due to its similar sweetness to sugar but with fewer calories. It is also beneficial for dental health, as it helps reduce the risk of cavities and tooth decay by inhibiting the growth of harmful bacteria in the mouth. Additionally, xylitol is utilized in oral care products like toothpaste and mouthwash for its cavity-fighting properties. In the pharmaceutical industry, it is used as an excipient in syrups and lozenges, providing a sweet taste without the negative effects of sugar. Xylitol is also employed in diabetic-friendly foods, as it has a low glycemic index and does not significantly impact blood sugar levels. Furthermore, it finds application in skincare products, where it acts as a humectant to retain moisture and improve skin hydration.
