Xylitol is a white crystalline substance that looks and tastes like sugar. It’s an all-natural sugar alcohol that is found in many fruits and vegetables and produced in small amounts by the human body. Xylitol is most commonly used as a sweetener, often as an alternative to sugar. While it gained popularity as a sweetener, it has many other health benefits. It’s often found in chewing gum, mints, candies, diabetic friendly foods, oral care products, and even sinus care products.

XYLITOL AS A SWEETENER
Xylitol is a great sugar alternative because it looks and tastes like sugar, but has 40% fewer calories. Table sugar has four calories per gram, where Xylitol only has 2.4 calories per gram. This makes it a great option for anyone who is trying to live a low calorie or sugar free lifestyle, but still wants to be able to enjoy sweets.

It works just like sugar to sweeten tea, coffee, or any other drinks. It can be cooked with and baked with just the same as sugar, so you can enjoy all your favourite desserts and treats guilt free.

There are a few places that xylitol shouldn’t be used. For instance, xylitol doesn’t caramelize or “hard crack” so it shouldn’t be used for the topping of a crème brûlée. And since yeast cannot metabolize xylitol, it shouldn’t be used as a sugar replacement in any kind of breads that rise.

Xylitol can be toxic to dogs. Be extra careful to keep all products containing xylitol away from where your pup can get into them. Make sure not to feed them human food that contains xylitol, keep the sweetener sealed and in a place they cannot get into.

The side effects for humans are much less drastic. Xylitol can cause discomfort if too much is consumed. Some people are much more sensitive to this than others. A good plan is to start your xylitol consumption low and work up while monitoring your body’s reaction. Many individuals are able to consume xylitol with no digestive discomfort, while others are much more sensitive.
