Sorbitol, a polyol (sugar alcohol), is a bulk sweetener found in numerous food products. In addition to providing sweetness, it is an excellent humectant and texturizing agent. Sorbitol is about 60 percent as sweet as sucrose with one-third fewer calories. It has a smooth mouthfeel with a sweet, cool and pleasant taste. It is non-cariogenic and may be useful to people with diabetes.
Xylitol is a sugar alcohol that has five carbon atoms. Other sweeteners like sorbitol and glucose have six. While xylitol tastes sweet, dentists like it because itâs not converted to acids that cause tooth decay in the mouth due to its molecular structure. Xylitol occurs naturally in small amounts in berries, vegetables, corn cobs and mushrooms.
