Nature’s Sweet Life® Xylitol Bulk [Structural] looks and tastes like table sugar, but it’s a natural, low-calorie, low-carb substitute. Xylitol was discovered over 100 years ago and has been widely used for many decades.
 
It can be used to sweeten foods and beverages or in cooking and baking (although it is not recommended for use in pastries or hard candy). Xylitol does not promote tooth decay as it helps prevent bacteria from adhering to teeth. It is safe for use by diabetics, children and pregnant women.

Use as desired to sweeten foods and beverages.

What is Xylitol? Xylitol is the name for a naturally occurring sugar polyol commonly derived from corn stalks and birch trees. It is m uch like many other sugars, but with a significant difference — the molecule contains only 5 carbon atoms rather than the 6 of most other sugars. This molecular difference is the key to xylitol’s beneficial qualities, both as a food ingredient and in both medical and dental applications.
 

A delicious, low-calorie sweetener: Xylitol has all the sweetness of table sugar, yet has 40% fewer calories and 0g of sugar. Xylitol is an ideal alternative sweetener in foods prepared for weight loss or for anyone concerned about the overuse of sugar in their diet.

 
Diabetic friendly: Xylitol is metabolized without insulin so it creates a significantly lower glycemic effect when eaten — a glycemic index of only 7. Good news for diabetics!

Dental benefits: Xylitol inhibits the ability of bacteria to adhere to tissues in the mouth and cannot be metabolized by bacteria, thus drastically slowing the process that creates harmful, enamel-eating acids.
