Sorbitol
Sorbitol is a sugar substitute found in the fibers of many fruits and vegetables. It is also produced by the human body. It is widely used as a replacement for corn syrups. Sorbitol is absorbed more slowly than sugar, which may play a small role in the prevention and management of diabetes.
It may also inhibit Cavities.
Our Sorbitol comes in Powder and Liquid Form.
Caloric value near zero.
