It is a sugar alcohol similar to Xylitol and Sorbitol.   Benefits: + Lower glycemic index than sugar + Does not cause tooth decay + Fewer calories than sugar gram for gram + Safe sugar substitute   Maltitol is a substitute for Sucrose and is derived from corn.   Commonly used as a sweetener in: + Desserts + Gum + Mouthwash + Vitamins and other potentially bitter foods and supplements + Dairy + Diabetic products + Other candy, confections and sweetened foods

NEOSORB® are sugar-free, low caloric bulk sweeteners providing a variety of functional properties in confectionery and seafood products, offering a wide range of textures for tooth-friendly chewing-gums contributing to oral health. Dental plaque, a sticky bacterial film that develops on dental enamel, reoccurs after every meal. Those microorganisms feed on sugar fermentation, produced by destructive acids attacking the teeth's enamel. NEOSORB® sorbitol powder does not produce acids or cause tooth decay as they are not metabolized by the oral bacteria.

LYCATAB® DSH is a high-performance wet granulation binder for swallowable tablets with low impact on dissolution. It is a natural origin binder developed specifically for wet granulation. It is completely soluble in cold water and has excellent wettability. These characteristics make it a versatile excipient whatever the granulation equipment you have available (high shear, fluid bed, twin screew) and whatever the incorporation of your binder (in the dry mix or as a binding solution). The low viscosity benefit to a short granulation process and a low impact of the binder on the disintegration and dissolution profile of your formulation.

XYLISORB® Xylitol sugar-free sweetener with a high cooling effect.
