Birch Xylitol Sweetener - Sweetness without the Sugar

Almost everyone could do with a little less sugar in their diet – we all know that too much sugar is bad for our waistline and teeth. But many of the alternatives aren’t much better – leaving an artificial, chemical-like aftertaste with ingredients made in a laboratory. There’s always the option of no sugar at all – but those with a sweet tooth will most likely never make that change!

For those looking for a natural sugar substitute, Xylitol provides sugar-like sweetness without excessive calories, artificial aftertaste or blood sugar spikes.  Here are some of the advantages to Dr. John’s® Simply Xylitol® Sweetener:


100% USA Made from Birch: Many companies sell xylitol derived from corn  or sell products containing a mixture of combine xylitol with other  artificial sweeteners. When you buy Dr. John’s® Simply Xylitol® Sweetener, you’re getting 100% xylitol derived from birch, and nothing else.

Convenient packages: Simply Xylitol® Sweetener comes in resealable 1 lb and 5 lb packages in granulated form, so it’s easy to use in a variety of applications. It can be substituted for sugar at a 1:1 ratio so there’s no need to change your recipes. Simply add xylitol sweetener where you’d normally add granulated table sugar - to your favorite fruit salad, morning coffee or a delicious cake.  You’ll be amazed at how little you’ll miss sugar!

Beneficial for dental health: Each tablespoon of this amazing sugar substitute delivers 6 grams of xylitol – meeting the daily recommendation of  Dr. John’s® Simply Xylitol® Plan, providing maximum dental health benefits in the process. Xylitol has been shown in clinical studies to reduce the incidence of tooth decay and reduce the effects of dry mouth.


Low glycemic index: Xylitol sweetener has a low glycemic index – 7, compared to 100 per same size serving of table sugar – so it can sweeten your treats and cooking without raising your blood sugar.

Each serving of Simply Xylitol Sweetener contains only 15 calories,  less than 1/3 of that of a tablespoon of white, granulated sugar (~50 calories). While it seems like a small difference – imagine every recipe with 1/3 the amount of calories from sugar. The calories saved add up quickly!
