Sweetness

The best zero-GI sweetener with sugar-like texture and no aftertaste — use 30% more by volume than sugar to match sweetness. Ideal for diabetic guests or keto cocktail menus.

Rare sugar alcohol that is ~90-95% excreted unchanged through urine — body absorbs it but cannot metabolize it for fuel. GI of zero confirmed (does not raise blood glucose or insulin). FDA allows it to be excluded from 'total sugars' and 'added sugars' on nutrition labels. No significant digestive side effects at normal doses (unlike sorbitol/mannitol). Can actually blunt glycemic response of other foods consumed simultaneously. GRAS status confirmed. Naturally occurring in figs, raisins, wheat.
