What is organic erythritol?

Organic Erythritol is a unique sugar alcohol (polyol) produced through the fermentation of organic glucose. Unlike other sugar alcohols, erythritol is nearly calorie-free (approximately 0.2 kcal/g, often rounded to zero), has an excellent digestive tolerance, and does not cause a glycemic response, making it perfectly suited for keto-friendly, diabetic, and low-carbohydrate formulations.

It provides about 70% of the sweetness of sucrose but boasts a clean, sweet taste with no lingering aftertaste, and a pleasant cooling sensation often desired in mints and chewing gum. Its crystalline structure and excellent solubility make it highly versatile for various applications, allowing manufacturers to create indulgent yet guilt-free products.

FAQs

Q: What is the caloric value and glycemic index of Organic Erythritol?

A: Organic Erythritol is practically calorie-free (about 0.2 kcal/g) and has a Glycemic Index (GI) of 0, meaning it does not raise blood sugar levels.

Q: Is Organic Erythritol suitable for keto diets?

A: Yes, Organic Erythritol is highly favored in keto diets because it has zero net carbs and does not impact blood sugar or insulin levels, allowing for guilt-free sweetness.

Q: How does Organic Erythritol compare to other sugar alcohols in terms of digestive tolerance?

A: Organic Erythritol is generally considered to have the highest digestive tolerance among sugar alcohols. Over 90% is absorbed in the small intestine before reaching the large intestine, where fermentation (and potential discomfort) typically occurs with other polyols.

Q: What is the typical shelf life and recommended storage for bulk quantities of Organic Erythritol?

A: Our Organic Erythritol typically has a shelf life of 24-36 months from the manufacturing date when stored in a cool, dry place (below 75°F/24°C), away from direct sunlight and moisture, in its original sealed packaging. Specific bulk storage recommendations will be provided with your order documentation.

Q: Can Organic Erythritol be used as a 1:1 sugar replacement?

A: While it offers similar bulking properties, Organic Erythritol is about 70% as sweet as sugar. For 1:1 sweetness, it’s often blended with other high-intensity natural sweeteners (like organic stevia or organic monk fruit) in formulations.
