Sorbitol

Sorbitol is a sugar alcohol commonly used as a sweetener and humectant in various food and cosmetic products. It is naturally found in fruits like apples, pears, and peaches, but is also commercially produced from glucose. Sorbitol provides sweetness with fewer calories than sucrose and has a lower glycemic index, making it suitable for people monitoring their blood sugar levels. Sorbitol remains a popular choice in sugar-free and low-calorie food products, as well as in oral health products like toothpaste and mouthwash, due to its sweetening properties and versatility.
