3. Xylitol
What is it?
Found naturally in fibrous fruits and vegetables and in the sap of some trees, Xylitol is a so-called ‘polyol sugar’. It tastes sweet but cannot be fully digested so it’s lower in calories. It is the sweetener of choice in sugar-free chewing gum, but you can also buy it in granular form.
How do I use it?
Like table sugar. You can also bake with it.
