Erytrol and Erythritol are interchangeable names of the same product. It is a sweetener that belongs to the group of polyhydroxy or sugar alcohols. Erythritol occurs naturally in fruits such as melons, pears, and grapes, as well as corn, seaweed, lichen, and red wine. In industry, it is obtained by fermentation, the same process used to make cheese, but fruit is used instead of milk. Another extraction method is the use of glucose and various types of yeast or glycerol, also using microorganisms, in this case Yarrowia lipolitica.
It can be used as a substitute for traditional sugar, which is very similar in appearance. It is perfect for sweetening coffee, tea, desserts and as an ingredient in cakes. However, erythritol is less sweet, it has about 60-70% the sweetness of sucrose (sugar), which should be taken into account in recipes when substituting these products. When consumed, it leaves a slightly cool feeling in the mouth. Its main advantage over sugar is above all its low calorie content and the fact that it has a zero glycemic index and therefore does not raise blood sugar levels. 1g of erythritol has only about 0.2 kcal, which is why it is called a "calorie-free sweetener". Among the sweeteners available, it is the lowest calorie option with virtually no nutritional value, making it ideal for people trying to control and reduce calories. Erythrol is not metabolized by our body as we do not have an enzyme to break it down in our body. It is almost completely excreted and does not affect the intestinal microflora at all. It should not be used by children under 3 years old due to the not yet fully developed digestive system, and besides it has no contraindications and side effects.
