Erythritol - a healthier sugar substitute that has a zero glycaemic index and contains no calories 

Erythritol is a sugar substitute and contains no calories. This makes it ideal for weight loss or as a more suitable alternative for those who are trying to limit their sugar intake. Erythritol is a sugar alcohol (polyalcohol) that is naturally found in fruit, such as grapes, pears or peaches. It is also produced during the fermentation process of beer, wine or cheese. As stated before, its main advantage is that it has a zero glycaemic index. Due to this, it does not increase blood sugar levels.  

  

No matter the amount you consume, you will not receive any energy from it, because our body does not have the necessary enzymes that could release it from erythritol. However, this is not the only benefit of erythritol. In case you decide to replace sugar with erythritol, you will contribute to maintaining the mineralization of your teeth, and you can support your dental health in the process. 

  

Erythritol is most often produced through natural fermentation of glucose in the presence of microorganisms (Trichosporonoides megachiliensis). This results in tiny crystals that are virtually indistinguishable from ordinary beet sugar at first glance. You will feel the difference only when you taste it. Erythritol boasts 0 kcal and about 70% of the sweetness compared to sugar. It is therefore necessary to use a slightly higher amount to make your dish as sweet as if you sweetened it with sugar. However, in all other instances it has the same consistency and functions virtually the same in food and drinks. Thanks to erythritol, you can sweeten your dishes in a healthier way without any unnecessary calories. All you have to do is completely or partially replace the sugar in your beverages (teas, summer drinks), desserts and other sweet dishes with erythritol. However, you can also use it in the preparation of salty foods. You can use erythritol to sweeten sauces, soups or for the preparation of sweet marinades.  

  

If you like sweets but avoid sugar, erythritol can be a great calorie-free alternative, which will sweeten your food or drinks to perfection. And as an added bonus, it will also help take care of your dental health.
