Erythritol Organic 500 g

Organic Erythritol

Like xylitol, erythritol is a natural sweetener intended for anyone seeking a natural alternative amidst the flood of artificial sweeteners. Erythritol is a sugar alcohol produced through a fermentation process and is found primarily in certain types of fruit. Compared to ordinary white refined or brown cane sugar, erythritol has absolutely no caloric value, and its glycaemic index is zero (GI=0). A low glycaemic index is a beneficial property of this sweetener for anyone maintaining their ideal body weight through a GI diet, as well as for people with diabetes, as the GI of foods affects blood sugar levels. Furthermore, erythritol is also gluten-free, which may be good news for many people.

In appearance, erythritol resembles white sugar; the white crystals are tasteless and therefore suitable for general use. You can use it in hot and cold dishes and drinks. You can use it to cook and bake your favourite dishes without compromising on flavour, as erythritol has the most neutral taste of all popular (natural) sweeteners. With erythritol, you can truly indulge without a guilty conscience or having to make compromises.

Why is erythritol a good substitute for ordinary sugar?

Erythritol is, in fact, almost a perfect natural sweetener. If we replace ordinary white sugar with it, we can actually benefit from doing so, as it:

💚 has a glycaemic index of 0, meaning it is absorbed slowly and prevents a sudden spike in blood sugar,
💚 suitable for those following a GI diet, and those who wish to limit or completely stop using ordinary sugar,
💚 excellent for helping with weight management,
💚 suitable for diabetics,
💚 a calorie-free sweetener,
💚 with no aftertaste,
💚 similar in structure to white sugar, making it easy to switch to,
💚 suitable for cold and hot dishes and drinks; can be used in cooking and baking.

Erythritol maintains blood sugar balance, which ordinary sugar only disrupts. It is popular due to its neutral taste, zero calories and the fact that it has no adverse effects on human health.
