Xylitol Calories
At ElimiTaste, we developed our Zapp sugarless gum to fight bad breath and prevent cavities. We use a natural sugar substitute called Xylitol to cut calories and protect the teeth and gums. In study after study, Xylitol has been shown to decrease the accumulation of the bacteria that causes plaque.
Many people chew sugarless gum with artificial sweeteners that can actually trigger cravings for more sugar. If you're trying to cut calories, the last thing you want to do is deal with sugar cravings. Many of the sugarless gums on the market today also have an odd or chemical aftertaste, as well. Xylitol Calories Compared to Sugar Xylitol is a sugar alcohol, which means it has a low Glycemic index. Glycemic index is a measure of how quickly a carbohydrate causes a spike in blood sugar levels. When your blood sugar spikes, you develop cravings for more sugar. Xylitol has a glycemic index of seven while the gycemic index of sugar is 100. If you're counting calories, Xylitol has about two-and-a-half calories per gram while sugar has around four calories per gram. If you want to get the best results from Xylitol chewing gum, you need to consume between four and 12 grams per day. Our Zapp and SmokeScreen gum is made with 100 percent Xyitol instead of a blend of sugar substitutes. This means you get the best possible tooth-friendly effects without having to chew an entire pack of gum every day.
