Is Xylitol a sugar?
Yes and no. Xylitol is a sugar alcohol. Basically, sugar alcohols are sugars with a slight modification in their chemical structure, which can have major effects. For example, sorbitol is the sugar alcohol version of glucose. Glucose can be used by bacteria in your mouth and can cause teeth decay; sorbitol, however, cannot be used either by the bacteria in your mouth. Different sugar alcohols have varying degrees of digestibility in humans; for this reason they may have a laxative effect. Xylitol's (and maltitol) seem to have less of a laxative effect. Every sugar alcohol is different in terms of sweetness and their ability to be digested by the human body (i.e. their calories). However, a) they do not promote dental decay and b) they are still sweet (like sugar).
