What is vegetable glycerin shown in the list of ingredients?
Glycerin is a natural preservative used in human foods and beverages. In our products it serves as a humectant to keep the product supple and as a natural sweetener. It is commonly used as filler in commercially prepared low-fat foods (e.g., cookies). Although it has about the same food energy as table sugar, it does not raise blood sugar levels, nor does it feed the bacteria that form plaques and cause dental cavities.
