What is Mannitol?
Mannitol is a sugar alcohol used as a low-calorie sweetener and bulking agent with a clean, cooling taste. It has a low glycemic impact, resists moisture pickup, and stays stable under heat, which makes it great for sugar-free candies, chewing gum, baked goods, and drink mixes. In supplements and pharma it’s a common excipient for tablets and chewables, helping with mouthfeel and compression. Typically a white, crystalline powder, about half to two-thirds as sweet as sugar.
Mannitol Benefits:
Mannitol offers a low glycemic impact at about half to two thirds the sweetness of sugar, making it useful for sugar free and keto style products. It is tooth friendly and non cariogenic, provides a clean cooling taste that improves flavor and mouthfeel in tablets, gums, and candies, and resists moisture so it works well as a bulking, anti caking, and dust control agent in blends. It is heat stable and compatible with many ingredients for baking and processing, and it is widely used as a tablet excipient to improve compression and smooth chewability. Note that high intakes may cause digestive discomfort in some people.
