What is lactitol?

Lactitol is a low-calorie natural sweetener. It is mainly produced by enzymatic conversion of corn starch or lactose. It has a similar sweetness to sucrose, but its calories are much lower than sucrose, only about half of sucrose. Lactitol is a white crystalline powder, easily soluble in water, stable, and not prone to Maillard reaction. Since its calories are much lower than traditional sugar, it can reduce calorie intake to achieve weight loss. It also has the functions of improving intestinal health, promoting the growth of beneficial intestinal flora, and contains improved digestion ingredients and prompt intestinal health. Therefore, it is often used as a multi-purpose food additive in food processing.

Functions and Applications:

Food additives: Lactitol can be used to make baked goods such as biscuits, cakes, and bread. Its low hygroscopicity can maintain the crispness of biscuits and the soft taste of cakes and bread. As a low-calorie sweetener, it can be used to produce low-sugar beverages suitable for diabetics and obese people. In addition to its low hygroscopicity, it is also highly stable and can be used in chocolate production to avoid the unpleasant taste of other sugar alcohols. It has a pure sweetness and good solubility and structure. It can be used to make ice cream, but it is also necessary to adjust the formula to control the freezing point and melting characteristics. Lactitol can be used as a health care material. It has health care functions such as increasing beneficial bacteria, facilitating bowel movements, and protecting the liver. It can be used in health foods.

Pharmaceutical raw materials: It can be used as an osmotic laxative to absorb water in the intestines and increase the volume of stool, thereby promoting intestinal peristalsis and relieving constipation. It is often used as a laxative in the pharmaceutical field. It can also be used to prevent and treat hepatic encephalopathy by reducing the production of ammonia in the intestines and lowering the ammonia level in the blood. It can also be used as a pharmaceutical intermediate, a filler, sweetener and moisturizer in pharmaceutical preparations to improve the taste and stability of the drug.

Cosmetics and daily necessities: It can be used as a cosmetic raw material for the production of lipsticks, lip balms and other products. Its moisturizing properties help maintain the moisturizing effect of the product.

Introduction	Lactitol is a disaccharide alcohol made from lactose by catalytic hydrogenation reduction. It has the characteristics of low calories, low hygroscopicity and not easy to cause dental caries. It is a white powder or a colorless liquid, odorless and sweet. Crystalline lactitol is available in three forms: anhydrous, monohydrate and dihydrate. The hygroscopicity of lactitol is much lower than that of sorbitol and xylitol, and is similar to that of mannitol when the relative humidity is low. It also has good moisture retention, which can prevent the taste of food from deteriorating due to drying.
