Why use maltitol?
The growth in demand for low-calorie and sugar-free food products, as well as the expansion in the number of available and approved sugar substitutes, has increasingly encouraged food industries to extend their traditional range to include sugar-free products. In this way, crystalline MALTISORB®, like the other polyols, assists industry to pursue its aims more effectively. Its energy value is less than that of sugar and it is both acceptable to diabetics and non-cariogenic. Due to its slow energy release, maltitol is also a good energy management aid with hunger control advantages.
