Mannitol Powder (E 421) 20Kg Bag
What is Mannitol and where does it come from?
Mannitol is a white, odorless, sweet-tasting powder. Mannitol is a sugar alcohol. It has half the calories of sugar, and is half as sweet. This product is 100% pure. Mannitol is poorly absorbed by the body, so it does not raise insulin levels as much as sugar. It does not promote tooth decay. Mannitol and sorbitol are isomers, substances with the same chemical formula, but a different shape.
Mannitol is used as the dust that coats chewing gum, where it keeps the gum from absorbing moisture and getting sticky. This is due to its humectant (moisture trapping) properties, and very low hydroscopicity (does not attract moisture from the air).
Mannitol is also known as the following:
Manna Sugar
Mannite
D-Mannitol
1,2,3,4,5,6-Hexanehexol
