INTRODUCTION

In the food industry, erythritol, as a substitute for sucrose, is widely used in baked goods, pastries, dairy products, chocolate, various candies, desserts, chewing gum, soda, ice cream, etc.

Erythritol glycol is very suitable for diabetes patients, because it is not easy to be degraded by enzymes, so it does not participate in blood glucose metabolism and glucose changes. It can also be used as a substitute for low calorie health foods, making it very suitable for obesity, hypertension, and cardiovascular diseases

The anti caries function of erythritol and sugar alcohol in patients is very obvious, which is the main reason for dental caries caused by the corrosion of oral enamel streptococcus mutans. As erythritol and sugar alcohol cannot be utilized by pathogens, special cleaning teeth made of candy have a very positive effect on protecting children's oral health.
