Guest guest Posted February 7, 2005 Report Share Posted February 7, 2005 Hi again, I forgot to copy and paste this in my rush: XYLITOL. USP/NF/FCC grade. Non-insulin producing sugar-alcohol looks and tastes like sucrose but a bit sweeter and “cooler” in the mouth. Found in many fruits & vegetables, it is produced from birch wood or corn cobs. Has anabolic, anticatabolic and immune stimulating effects, and fights fatigue from strenuous aerobic and anaerobic activities with its antioxidant and ATP increasing properties. Studies show it inhibits bacteria that cause dental caries, plaque, mouth sores & ear infections by coating the bacteria so that they are less likely to adhere to cells. Children taking 8g/day had 40% fewer ear infections. Yeast can’t metabolize it. A 5% solution in saline is sold as a nasal spray. Use with green tea for a mouthwash you can drink. Builds stronger bones and tooth enamel. New long-term study showed increased bone density using 40 grams per day. With only 2.4 Calories per gram (40% fewer than sugar) and a glycemic index of 7, it maintains a steady low level of blood sugar and insulin. Our best sweetener! 1 lb., $5.50.
