Erythrol and Erythritol are interchangeable names of the same product. It is a sweetener that belongs to the group of polyhydroxy or sugar alcohols. Erythritol is found naturally in fruits such as melons, pears, and grapes, and in corn, seaweed, lichen, and red wine. In industry, it is obtained by fermentation, the same process as in cheese production, but fruit is used instead of milk. Another method of obtaining is the use of glucose and various species of yeast or glycerol, also with the use of microorganisms, in this case Yarrowia lipolitica.
It can be used as a substitute for traditional sugar that closely resembles its appearance. It is perfect for sweetening coffee, tea, desserts and as an ingredient in cakes. However, erythritol is less sweeter, it has about 60-70% of the sweetness of sucrose (sugar), which is worth considering in recipes when replacing these products. When consumed, it leaves the mouth feeling slightly cool. Its significant advantage over sugar is mainly its low calorie content and the fact that it 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 a "calorie-free sweetener". Among the available sweeteners, it is the least caloric option, which has practically no nutritional value, so it is ideal for people who control calories and reduce them. Erythrol is not metabolized by our body because we do not have an enzyme to break it down in our body. It is almost entirely excreted and it does not affect the intestinal flora at all. It should not be used by children under the age of 3, due to the not fully developed digestive system, and it has no contraindications and side effects.
Erythritol has a positive effect on our body by acting as an antioxidant and protecting the 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 that 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 act as 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.
INTERESTING FACTS
In recipes, replacing sugar with erythritol, we should use the following proportion: change 5g of sugar to about 7g of erythritol. Erythritol is not recommended for baking yeast cakes because it slows down the rising of the dough. In food products, it is listed as E968. It is often added to other sweeteners, such as aspartame, in products to reduce their undesirable aftertaste and improve their sweet taste. In cosmetics, it is used as a replacement for glycerin, which acts as a preservative, i.e. protects the product from deterioration.
