Xylitol

Recently, terrible news spread around the world - it turned out that regular use of xylitol has a very strong effect on the male reproductive system and impairs male potency. Scientists have sounded the alarm! Why have we done such a wrong to them? Maybe xaiti is a stumbling block? Or is Selite a fire stone?

To begin with, this widely used food sweetener originated from the Native American cultures of southern North America and was introduced to the industry in the 1970s as a biologically acceptable alternative to sugar. Its production base is in hardwood and can be modified by using heat treatment to reduce the level of residual glycogen content. This significantly improves the characteristics of xylitol syrup.

To produce xylitol for the mass market, a mixture of corn syrup and xylose is used. According to some sources:

Other sources state that xylitol is made from corn syrup or maltodextrin by removing the last residues from carbohydrate sources and other products from the finished syrup using solid calcium hydroxide crystals. Some time ago, NutraSweet reported a high xylitol content (at least 50%) in a weight loss product they marketed as MCT-18, from a product called CaMar.

It is also important to note that there is a widespread belief among the population that xylitol was supposed to improve male potency.
