Erythritol is a sugar alcohol derived from plants, and is used as a sugar and sweetener substitute. It is a zero-calorie sweetener, and is 70% as sweet as sugar. It is a polyol, meaning it is metabolized differently than sugar, and does not cause tooth decay or contribute to blood sugar levels. It is often used in combination with other sweeteners, such as stevia, to create a more natural sweetener blend. Erythritol is also used in food and beverage products, such as candy, ice cream, and soft drinks, as well as in pharmaceuticals and cosmetics. Erythritol is produced through a fermentation process, and is available in both granulated and powdered forms. It is also available in a variety of flavors, such as mint, lemon, and orange. Companies in the Erythritol market include Cargill, Tate & Lyle, Roquette, Ingredion, and ADM. Show Less Read more
