Ramiel Nagel, author of the book “Cure Tooth Decay,” has written a very thorough review of this sweetener which is gaining popularity in the US. For example, did you know that xylitol is toxic to dogs, is NOT on the FDA’s GRAS (Generally Regarded as Safe) list for consumption, and that it is now mass-produced primarily from beet-sugar (which is one of the crops just deregulated for GMO production) and that even some sources are now from corn grown in China? Read the article and find out more information regarding this sweetener and decide for yourself if it is a healthy sugar substitute.
