Xylitol Birch is a health product created for the purpose of sweetening drinks in a healthy and natural way. Although it has similar characteristics to traditional sugar, it does not produce the same health effects.
It is an excellent substitute for people who have problems controlling blood glucose levels, as it is made from birch sugar, a component that is not metabolised by insulin.
This sweetener slows down the fermentation of sucrose in the mouth, a property that contributes to the prevention of tooth decay. It also supports enamel remineralisation and gum health. It can be used in baking and general cooking.
It is an alternative to sweeten coffee, herbal teas and fruit juices. It is considered to have a low glycaemic index (around 8) and low calorie content. It helps in dietary regimes to reduce or maintain body weight.
Thanks to xylitol, it neutralises acids in dental plaque and helps to strengthen the immune system. No genetically modified ingredients are used in its manufacture. It is suitable for people with coeliac disease, egg allergy/intolerance or milk intolerance.
When it comes into contact with the tongue, it produces a sensation of freshness. It is said to help balance the body's pH and keep the body young and slim.
It is also effective against candidiasis and strengthens the bone structure. At the same time, it helps protect against degenerative diseases and reduces the signs of ageing.
Health experts point out that it helps to alkalinise the body and facilitates the digestive process. Its consumption is effective for the production of collagen and improving the elasticity of the skin layer.
