Sorbitol
Other names: Sorbitol
Harm score: 2 (Derivatives of natural substances)
Sorbitol, also known as Glucitol, is a type of sugar alcohol that is often used as a sweetener and humectant in various products. It can naturally moisturize and sweeten, making it a very popular ingredient in the food and cosmetics industry. It appears in many foods, including diabetic foods, chewing gum, diet drinks, candies, and frozen desserts. Its moisturizing properties also make it popular in cosmetic products such as creams, cleansers and shampoos.
Sorbitol products are made from corn syrup, but the exact process may depend on the individual manufacturer. Sorbitol is safe for consumption and is generally considered a safe food additive. This sweet substance is known for having fewer calories than regular sugar, and is therefore often used as a sugar substitute in diet products. In addition, it can dissolve in both hot and cold water, making it a versatile ingredient that can be added to a wide range of products.
