Z Natural Foods XYLITOL - 100% PURE
Z Natural Foods Xylitol - 100% Pure is a sugar alcohol that is naturally present in various fruits and vegetables. It was originally extracted from birch trees in Finland. Our Xylitol is derived from Non-GMO corn. It is comparable to xylitol derived from other sources, such as birch. Xylitol is a normal part of the human metabolism. In fact, our bodies make up to 15 grams of it daily. Additionally, xylitol has been found to possibly support an increase in the activity of white blood cells involved in fighting bacteria and thus may support a healthy immune and aging process. It has been proven effective in inhibiting Candida albicans, a serious yeast condition that is implicated in gum disease, bad breath, and ulcers. Resembles sugar in consistency and taste (about 80% as sweet as sugar), but has 40 percent fewer calories and 75 percent fewer carbohydrates than sugar. Additionally, xylitol is not easily converted to fat and has almost no effect on insulin levels, making it a great alternative for diabetics, bodybuilders, and dieters. Xylitol also is considered safe for pregnant and nursing women, babies, and children. Xylitol tastes wonderful with no strange diet taste and kids love it. Using xylitol instead of sugar and/or refined carbohydrate foods may help to support a healthy female cycle. Research shows that dietary xylitol may support bone health of bones in rats and improves bone density, indicating xylitol's potential to support healthy bones in humans.
