About Xylitol 250 g
Xylitol (or "wood sugar") is a natural sweetener naturally present in small amounts in fruits and vegetables (such as corn, cauliflower, strawberries, and raspberries), with birch wood serving as the primary source for its production. Thanks to its low glycemic index (value equal to 8), xylitol absorption by the body occurs with minimal insulin involvement, making it a comfortable choice for people monitoring their glucose levels.
The product contains 40% fewer calories than classic beet or cane sugar while providing a lasting sense of satiety and supporting energy tone throughout the day. Furthermore, xylitol has a positive impact on tooth enamel: it helps reduce dental plaque formation and lowers the likelihood of tooth decay.

Scientific Research
According to scientific data and officially approved criteria of the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), xylitol is one of the most intensively researched and effective sugar substitutes with proven dental and metabolic benefits:
- Maintenance of Tooth Mineralization and Caries Protection: according to the official scientific opinion of the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA Journal / Health Claims on Xylitol), consumption of foods or sugar substitutes containing xylitol contributes to the maintenance of tooth mineralization. Unlike regular sugar, xylitol is not fermented by cariogenic bacteria (specifically Streptococcus mutans), stopping the formation of harmful organic acids and preventing enamel demineralization.
- Reduction of Dental Plaque and Caries Risk: according to a systematic Cochrane review in the PubMed database regarding the efficacy of xylitol in dentistry, regular use of xylitol significantly inhibits the growth of cariogenic microflora and reduces dental plaque formation, which is the primary factor in caries development.
- Glycemic Control and Metabolic Safety: as confirmed by EFSA scientific studies, replacing sugar with xylitol induces a lower blood glucose and insulin response after meals. Xylitol has a low glycemic index (GI = 7–13), making it a safe and physiological alternative for individuals monitoring sugar levels or following a low-carbohydrate diet.
