Xylitol

Xylitol is commonly used in the personal care and health & beauty industries as a moisturizing agent in products like toothpaste, mouthwash, and lip balms due to its ability to retain moisture and promote oral health. In the pharmaceutical industry, it is used as a sweetener in chewable tablets and syrups, offering a sugar-free alternative that also supports dental health. In the food & beverage industry, xylitol is used as a low-calorie sugar substitute in sugar-free gum, candies, and beverages, providing sweetness without the calories of traditional sugar.
