Erythritol is a natural low-calorie sweetener that belongs to the group of polyhydric or sugar alcohols. It is found naturally in fruits such as melons, pears and grapes as well as in corn, seaweed, lichen and red wine. Erythritol has a delicate sweet taste. When consumed, it leaves a soft feeling in the mouth. has a zero glycemic index, and thus does not raise blood glucose levels. 1g of erythritol is only about 0.2 kcal, which is why it is called "calorie-free sweetener". Among the sweeteners present, it is the least caloric option, which has virtually no nutritional value, so it is ideal for people controlling calories and on reduction.
In industry, it is obtained through fermentation, it is the same process as in cheese production, but instead of milk, fruit is used. Another way of obtaining is the use of glucose and various species of yeast or glycerol, also using microorganisms, in this case Yarrowia lipolitica.
It is used for baking and cooking, thus reducing the calorie content of prepared dishes. After ingestion it is quickly eliminated from the body. Can be used by diabetics. The advantage of this product is that, consumed even in large quantities, it has no laxative effect. Erythrol is not metabolized by our body, because we do not have an enzyme that would break it down in our body. It is almost completely eliminated and does not affect the intestinal bacterial flora at all. It can be used as a replacement for traditional sugar, which is very similar to its appearance. It is ideal for sweetening coffee, tea, desserts and as an ingredient in cakes. However, erythritol is less sweeter, has about 60-70% of sucrose (sugar) sweets, which should be included in the recipes when replacing these products.
Erythritol has a positive effect on our body by acting as an antioxidant and protecting teeth. As an antioxidant, it combines with free radicals and protects our body against their harmful effects. It also has the ability to inhibit sugar fermentation, which occurs through bacteria of the genus Streptococcus, which can cause cavities in the teeth.
In food, erytrol is increasingly used in the production of healthy sweets, jams, candied fruit, chewing gums and the production of dietary supplements for people who need to exclude sugar from their diet. It does not only play the role of a sweetener, it is also used as a flavor enhancer, in thickening and as a substance that prevents changes in the consistency, color and taste of the product.
CURIOSITIES
In food products it is listed as E968.
In the recipes, when replacing sugar with erythritol, we should use the proportion: 5g of sugar should be replaced with about 7g of erythritol.
It is often added to other sweeteners, such as aspartame, to reduce unwanted aftertaste and improve sweet taste. In cosmetics, it is used as a substitute for glycerin, which acts as a preservative, i.e. protects the product against deterioration.
