Isomaltulose

Isomaltulose is a slowly digested carbohydrate (disaccharide) found as a natural component of honey and sugar cane. It is exclusively made from sugar beets and prepared into a white crystalline powder. It imparts a sweet taste, but is 50% less sweet than sucrose (table sugar). It is a tooth-friendly and low glycemic sweetener, meaning that it does not increase blood sugar as much as glucose or starch after consumption.1-3
