Birch sugar (xylitol) is a substitute for sugar, extracted from the bark of trees in Europe, mainly from birch and beech from sustainable forests. It is used as a classic crystal sugar - hot or cold.

Xylitol differs from other types of natural sugar because it contains only five carbon atoms in its molecular structure. By comparison, "ordinary" sugar contains six. Research has shown that consuming up to 50 g of xylitol per day is safe. However, exceeding this amount can lead to toxic effects in the body.

Xylitol can be found in chewing gum, candies, chocolates, biscuits, and now in powder or tablet form. Some types of toothpaste and mouthwash also contain this sweetener used there because of its inherent antibacterial properties.

Xylitol tastes very similar to sugar. If we use it as a sweetener in any of the above forms, we must be careful exactly how much we consume per day.


Low glycemic index

As a low glycemic substance, it is suitable for diabetics and people whose body is sensitive to sugar metabolism. Its glycemic index is 8.5. Its effect on raising blood sugar is weak.


It does not harm the teeth

In terms of caries prevention, xylitol inhibits the growth of bacteria in the oral cavity. Unlike sugar, Streptococcus mutans does not use this sugar alcohol. The benefit of polyolite is that with frequent use over time changes the quality of microorganisms in the mouth - less and less bacteria leading to carious processes survive on the surface of the teeth. The visible result is that it reduces plaque, which causes the formation of unpleasant tartar on their sides. When the amount of acids released by microorganisms in the mouth decreases, it has a beneficial effect on dental health.
