SORBITOL<br />

• As a crystal, Sorbitol is a white, odorless,<br />

hydroscopic powder with a sweet cool taste. The<br />

cool taste is due to its negative heat of solution,<br />

about -26.5 cal/g. It is considered GRAS and has a<br />

nutritive value of 3.9 cal/g by the FDA, the EEC<br />

accepts a 2.4 cal/g value. Sorbitol, as most<br />

polyols, has a slight laxative and diuretic effect<br />

and is metabolized as Fructose, therefore, does<br />

not elevate blood glucose levels.<br />
