Name  :     Erythritol
Shape :     white powder

(1) Zero calories: Erythritol is the only sugar alcohol with zero calories.Due to its small molecular weight, it is easy to be absorbed by the human body, and only a small amount of erythritol absorbed by the human body enters the human large intestine and is fermented by microorganisms.80% erythritol is eaten by the human body into the human blood, but can not be human body enzyme catabolism, does not provide energy for the body, does not participate in sugar metabolism, can only be excreted from the human body through urine.

(2) high tolerance: the body of erythritol, sugar alcohol tolerance to 0.8 grams per kilogram of body weight, than the xylitol, lactose and maltitol is high, the main reason is that erythritol, sugar alcohol of small molecular weight, absorb less, mainly through the urine, avoiding the phenomenon of hypertonic cause diarrhea, avoids the phenomenon of intestinal bacteria fermentation to produce flatulence.

(3) anti-caries: erythritol is not used by human oral bacteria, so it will not produce acid substances to cause damage to teeth, leading to dental caries, inhibiting the growth of oral bacteria, so as to play a role in protecting teeth.

                Erythritol is a kind of filled sweetener and is a four-carbon sugar alcohol with the molecular formula C4H10O4.Erythritol is widely found in nature, such as fungi like mushrooms, lichens, melons and fruits like melon, grape, pear, and can also be detected in a small amount in animal eye crystals, plasma, fetal fluid, semen and urine. It also exists in a small amount in fermented food wine, beer, soy sauce and Japanese sakes.[1] It can be fermented by glucose as a white crystalline powder, with refreshing sweet taste, not easy to absorb moisture, stable at high temperature, stable in a wide pH range, mild cool feeling when dissolved in the mouth, suitable for a variety of food.
