Xylitol Glycemic Index
Glycemic index is a measure of how long it will take for a food to affect your blood sugar level. White bread, which has a glycemic index of 100, is often the standard by which other carbohydrates are measured. The higher the score, the more your blood sugar spikes when you consume a food.
Calorie-conscious consumers have turned to sugar substitutes or sugar alcohols because their chemical composition makes them more difficult for the body to recognize and process fully. Sugar substitutes like Xylitol have a lower glycemic index, which makes them ideal for low sugar diets. Xylitol Glycemic Index Xylitol has a low glycemic index of seven. Sugar has a glycemic index of 100! Many people turn to Xylitol for sugar free cooking because it contains just 2.4 calories per gram instead of the four calories per gram in sugar.
