If you have dietary concerns, please read the list of ingredients in Dr. John's Xylitol Caramels below.
Xylitol is safe for everyone -- infants, children, adults and the elderly. It looks and tastes as sweet as sugar, but it has 40% fewer calories, 75% fewer carbohydrates and a much lower glycemic index (7), making it safe and beneficial for diabetics (on their physician's advice).
Numerous clinical studies have proven xylitol's contribution to oral health. It's benefits include:
-
reduces decay-causing plaque (bacteria) levels
-
promotes healing of the initial start of an enamel cavity (remineralization)
-
maintains a non-acidic environment for your teeth
-
inhibits growth, adhesion and metabolism of major decay-causing bacteria (Step mutans)
-
increases salivary flow
-
prevents transfer of decay-causing bacteria from mother to baby
-
lessens the severity and occurrence of inner ear and sinus infections (especially in children)
