isomaltitol
Description
Isomaltitol is a sugar alcohol produced by the hydrogenation of isomaltose, a disaccharide composed of glucose and fructose. It is approximately 60% as sweet as sucrose but contains less than half the calories. Isomaltitol is commonly used as a sugar substitute in food products due to its low glycemic index and its ability to provide a pleasant mouthfeel. It is also known to have a low cariogenic potential, meaning it does not contribute to tooth decay. Research on isomaltitol focuses on its potential applications in food science, its impact on gut health, and its potential as a prebiotic ingredient. '

| "For the sake of metabolic insight into the fate of the sugar substitute Palatinit, its two components D-glucosyl-alpha (1 leads to 1)-D-mannitol and D-glucosyl-alpha (1 leads to 6)-D-glucitol [D-glucosyl-alpha-(1 leads to 6)-D-sorbitol] were assayed for glucose bioavailability by the procedure of Karimzadegan et al." | ( Bioavailability of glucose from Palatinit.
