Xlear XyloSweet -- 3 lb

All Natural Xylitol Sweetener Sugarsweet with no Aftertaste A delicious, low calorie sweetener. XyloSweetT has all the sweetness of common sugars, yet has 40% fewer calories. XyloSweet is an ideal alternative sweetener in foods prepared for weight loss or for anyone concerned about the overuse of sugar in their diet. But XyloSweet's low cal sweetening characteristics are only the beginning of its nutritional story. What is Xylitol? Xylitol is the commercial name for a naturally occurring sugar called xylose commonly derived from corncobs and birch trees. It is much like many other sugars, but with a significant difference - the xylose 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 source and as a bacterial inhibitor in both medical and dental use. XyloSweet in Diabetes Management:. XyloSweet can be substituted by most common sweeteners without compromising taste or texture. XyloSweet is metabolized without insulin so it creates a significantly lower glycemic effect when eaten - a glycemic index of only 7. Good news for diabetics. Anti-bacterial Benefits:. XyloSweet inhibits the ability of bacteria to attach to the tissues of the mouth, nose and throat. This is why physicians are using xylitol to reduce the symptoms of middle ear infections (otitis media) - particularly in children. Dental Benefits. The health benefits of Xylitol extend to dental use as well. XyloSweet in diets inhibits the ability of bacteria to adhere to the teeth, reducing the production of the acids that dissolve tooth enamel and lead to tooth decay. XyloSweet is the sweetener for the 21st Century. As more and more Americans discover xylitol's great taste and many uses, it will soon replace the more commonly used sugars in our diets. And soon, like the people of Scandinavia, Americans will enjoy stronger, healthier teeth, less bacterial infection, and a more sensible and manageable diet through the used of XyloSweet instead of sugar.

"This 3lbs bag is closer to sugar than anything else I've tried. I have been looking for a sugar subsitute that I would actually use. Alot of them I've tried including Splenda have a horrible after taste I can't stand. This stuff doesn't. I have used every drop of it and am now in the process of ordering more. It's also helping me lose weight. I've lost 6.6 lbs in 2 1/2 weeks by doing nothing else but switching from sugar to this!"

"I love xylitol as a product and have used it in many things - coffee, tea, lemonade, cookies, quick breads, ice cream, etc. It makes an awesome substitute for sugar without feeding bacteria, cancer cells, or blood sugar! We've been using it for a year & I have substituted it for sugar in everything except yeast breads & candy (doesn't work well in either). My favorite thing is the weight-loss benefit from eliminating the blood sugar/insulin effect of sweets (the body burns insulin instead of food when you eat high sugar/starch foods).

This is the poorest quality of the 4 brands I've tried, however, because the crystal size is so variable - fine to large granules all together. I had to grind it more finely in my blender to get it to dissolve properly. Xylitol is already a bit slower to dissolve than sugar, so the large grains are annoyingly slow!"

"If you're looking for a low-glycemic sweetener that tastes like sugar, and no aftertaste, this is it! I replaced my soft drink habit with iced tea, and this is a great substitute sweetener! It is also good for your teeth. I no longer keep white granulated sugar in my house. This can also be used for baking. It costs a little more than sugar, but the health benefits are worth it."

"I don't like the artificial sweeteners or the harmful effects they can have on you. This natural sweetener is the best we have every tasted. It does not leave an after taste in your month like some of the other sweeteners do. My husband is a diabetic, so Xylosweet is good for him because it does not spike his glucose levels. We most definitely will continue to purchase it."
