What is maltitol?
Naturally found and readily available in everyday fruits, like berries, maltitol is a sugar- alcohol. Despite being given the name, it is neither sugar nor does it contain alcohol. Most sugar alcohols aren’t as sweet as sucrose (a chief component in cane sugar), and they are considered a healthier alternative and sugar substitute usually used in sugar-free chewing gum, chocolates, protein bars, baked goods, and ice cream.
How is it better than sugar?
Maltitol – which is a highly digestible carbohydrate belonging to the polyol family – is also known to have 75–90% of the sweetness of sucrose, making it the ideal low-calorie alternative. But wait, there’s more: not only does maltitol contain 40% fewer calories than sugar and lead to lower glycaemic response, but it is also safer for your teeth. While we have mentioned that maltitol is a naturally occurring element found in some fruits and vegetables, in most cases when used as the sugar substitute, maltitol, is manufactured.
Why you won't be missing the sugar
Most people are aware that too much sugar can cause weight gain, increase your risk of heart disease, accelerate your skin’s natural ageing process, and increase your risk of type two diabetes. What they may not be aware of are the many additional risks that accompany consuming too much sugar, like the increased risk of cancer, depression, and the accelerated rate of cellular ageing that come with it. Sounds like a long list when we put it all together now does it not?
Now, what if we told you it was also possible to decrease those risks by reducing the sugar and calorie levels, while simultaneously still tickling taste buds? How is that possible we hear you asking? Through reducing or eliminating your daily, or weekly intake of sugar and substituting with alternatives like maltitol–enhanced treats. Maltitol is known to enhance the natural flavours of food for a premium taste and deliver well-being to all who opt to use it instead. Our choice of maltitol replaces sugar 1:1, intensifying our flavours, making it a partner for all of our creations.
The next time you pick up your favourite Peanut Butter–Zero!™ bar and enjoy its tasty indulgent goodness, you’ll know what maltitol is, why it’s a better alternative to sugar, and you’ll enjoy it for what it is – the guilt-free treat.
