Do your products contain Maltitol?

Our products may contain some very small amounts of maltitol. Of the total sugar alcohols, erythritol comprises most of the amount and has a much lower laxative effect. Generally, our products do not have any stomach upset which other sugar free products may have. However, the fiber content is high and can have some effect in large quantities.

What are Sugar Alcohols?

Sugar Alcohols are derived from sugar molecules. They include sorbitol, mannitol, xylitol, lactitol, maltitol and others. They are typically ½ fewer calories than sugar and range in sweetness from about half to equal the sweetness as sugar. Sugar alcohols, or polyols, may be used in place of sugar for people on low carb diets and people with diabetes. Unlike sugar, they do not break down completely in the body, so blood glucose levels are not affected.
