Xylitol
Xylitol is a sweetener found in the fibres of many fruits and vegetables. Xylitol became important when Finnish researchers found that it is beneficial to dental care. Xylitol-sweetened chewing gums and pastilles are great Finnish inventions.
The effects of xylitol have been studied in Finland for many years and the studies show that xylitol can reduce the occurrence of dental caries. Eating xylitol regularly after a meal has become a healthy and common habit in every Finn’s daily life. The xylitol content of xylitol gums produced in Finland is of top quality. Xylitol chewing gum with vitamins is a novelty that has recently been launched on the market.
