Natural Sweetners-Performance Nutrition

Xylitol is a naturally occurring low-calorie sweetener found in fruits, vegetables and certain hardwoods. Our bodies can produce up to 15 grams of Xylitol from other foods we ingest daily. This sweetener is not a newcomer in the marketplace. Initially discovered by a German scientist in 1891, sugar shortages caused by World War II stimulated a group of innovative folks from Finland to rediscover this wonderful sugar substitute. They called it “koivusokeri” or “birch sugar” because they derived it from a fiber found in birch tree bark. By the 1960s, Xylitol was being used in Europe, the Soviet Union and Japan. Today it’s used in the USA as a sweetener that’s approved by the FDA and the ADA. Though Xylitol is commercially manufactured from the cellulose of wood, cane pulp, seed hulls or cornhusk; NOW Foods Xylitol is made from cornhusk Nutrition Info Amount Per Serving % Daily Value Calories 10 Calories from Fat 0 Total Fat 0 g 0% Total Carbohydrate 4 g 1% Sugars 0 g Sugar Alcohol 4 g Sodium 0 mg 0% Protein 0 g Serving Size: 1 tsp.
