No. Glycerin is not a sugar or does it contain a sugar. Glycerin is virtually non-toxic and non-irritating in its varied uses. Glycerin is derived from both natural (vegetable and animal) petrochemical feedstocks. Glycerin, whether recovered from triglycerides or synthesized, is a highly refined and purified product, that must fulfill the U.S.P or F.C.C. standards.
