Mattisson Erythritol: natural sweetener and ideal sugar substitute

Erythritol is a natural sweetener that contains few or no calories, has a glycemic index of 0, but still has 70% of the sweetening strength of ordinary sugar. This makes it an ideal sugar substitute that is rapidly gaining in popularity.

Erythritol occurs naturally in fruit such as watermelon, grapes, pear, some types of mushrooms and fermented products such as wine or cheese. Erythritol, also known as sukrin, is the natural by-product of a fermentation process involving glucose and yeast. It is a sugar alcohol, or polyol. Other well-known sugar alcohols are xylitol, malitol or sorbitol. These contain more calories than erythritol.

Mattisson's organic erythritol has a mild sweet flavour and a fine texture, which is comparable to granulated sugar. Add some sweetness to your smoothies, yoghurt, tea, coffee and all kinds of snacks, dishes and desserts. Erythritol is also suitable for baking.

Erythritol: unique sweetener, calorie-free

Erythritol hardly has any calories. The special thing about this sweetener is that it has a structure that our body cannot break down. It is just absorbed by the blood and excreted via urine without any negative effect on our body.

Moreover, this sugar substitute has a glycemic index, or GI, of 0. Granulated sugar has a GI of 70 ! Erythritol does not affect blood sugar levels, which makes it a good alternative as a sweetener for people living with diabetes.
