Product Overview
In the rapidly evolving global market of health and wellness, Erythritol has emerged as a star ingredient. Identified by CAS No. 149-32-6, with the molecular formula C4H10O4, Erythritol is a four-carbon sugar alcohol (polyol) that is naturally occurring in some fruits and fermented foods. Our product is presented as a white crystalline powder, characterized by being almost odorless and possessing a clean, pleasant sweet taste.
Physical and Chemical Properties
Our Erythritol appears as white crystals with a particle size optimized for industrial mixing. Unlike other sugar alcohols, it has a high melting point (approximately 121°C) and is highly stable under heat and across a wide pH range. It is highly soluble in water, making it ideal for liquid applications such as beverages and syrups.
Key Advantages & Health Benefits
- Zero Calorie & Zero Sugar: Erythritol provides approximately 70% of the sweetness of sucrose but with almost zero calories. It does not spike blood glucose or insulin levels, making it the perfect sugar substitute for diabetic-friendly and keto-friendly products.
- Excellent Digestive Tolerance: Compared to other polyols like Xylitol or Sorbitol, Erythritol is mostly absorbed into the bloodstream before reaching the large intestine. This results in significantly less laxative effect and bloating, making it safer for high-consumption food products.
- Non-Cariogenic: It does not contribute to tooth decay. In fact, Erythritol has been shown to inhibit the growth of Streptococcus mutans, the primary bacteria responsible for plaque formation.
- Clean Label: It is non-GMO, vegan-friendly, and does not contain any artificial additives.
Industrial Applications
The versatility of Erythritol (C4H10O4) makes it a staple in various manufacturing sectors:
- Food & Confectionery: Widely used in chocolates, candies, chewing gums, and baked goods to reduce sugar content without compromising texture.
- Beverages: Ideal for functional drinks, flavored water, and protein shakes due to its high solubility and lack of aftertaste.
- Pharmaceuticals: Used as a sweetening base for syrups, chewable tablets, and vitamin supplements.
- Oral Care: A key ingredient in toothpaste and mouthwash for its tooth-friendly properties.
