STAY HEALTHY AND FIT WHILE ENJOYING YOUR CUISINE TASTES
For cases when a limited energy intake is required
(obesity, diabetes) various natural sweeteners are
used as alternative to usual sugar. maltitol,
a natural sugar substitute sweetener has been used
in Kafkas Light products.
Kafkas Light products do not contain artificial sweeteners or preservatives. Light chestnut candies contain 26% less calories than normal ones and light chestnut puree - 30% less than the normal puree.
MALTITOL, A NATURAL SWEETENER HAS BEEN PREFERRED IN KAFKAS LIGHT PRODUCT MANUFACTURE BECAUSE:
- The sweetener possesses a lower sweetening effect in comparison to sugar, which stresses the fruit's unique flavor. For example whereas sugar has the sweetening effect of 1, that of maltitol is between 0.6 and 0.9.
- The sweetener's calorie value is half that of sugar. Whereas 1 g of sugar is 4 calories, 1 g of maltitol is only 2.1 cal.
- Does not damage the teeth. Tooth plaque bacteria decompose sugar (fermentation) and produce acid. This acid effects calcium in tooth enamel and with time tooth decays begin. Maltitol is not easily decomposable by mouth bacteria. As a result the acid harming tooth enamel is not formed and tooth decay does not occur.
- Decomposed very slowly by enzymes in the small intestine and slowly absorbed, maltitol does not raise blood sugar level very much, which has been determined as a result of scientific studies. Despite that consumption of these products by diabetes patients is recommended under medical guidance.
