NUTRITIONAL INFORMATION NOTE FOR KETO DIETS:

  • For Keto diets please note that the polyols or dietary fibre have not been subtracted from the carbohydrate count. Under normal circumstances as polyols are generally zero-GI they are subtracted, however this was the first time the manufacturer has worked with these ingredients and they opted to treat our products as they would sugar. 
  • We are requesting a recalculation for the benefit of our Keto practising customers. Apologies for any confusion.

    What is Stevia?

    The stevia plant originates from South America where the leaves of the plant  have been used for hundreds of years to sweeten food. Interestingly it was also used medicinally to treat burns and stomach problems.

    Today only the sweetest part of the plant is used creating a natural sweetener that is many times sweeter than sugar.

    Its a great modern day crop, only using about one fifth of the land required to grow sugar and much less water.

    It has been shown to be useful in lowering blood pressure and other studies have shown that it could be useful in treating type 2 diabetes.

    Stevia has zero calories. And little to no effect on blood glucose, insulin levels.

    What is Xylitol?

    Xylitol is naturally occurring in small amounts in many fruits and vegetables, we even produce small amounts in our bodies during normal metabolism. It is not an artificial sweetener.

    It is usually produced from handpicked corn cobs or from the bark of Birch trees, corn cobs generally being the more sustainable environmentally friendly option.

    Xylitol is about the same sweetness as sugar but with 40% less calories. It has a fresh sweetness with no after taste. It has a very low Glycemic index of between 7 -11 compared with sugar at 65 and doesn’t spike blood sugar levels. Therefore it's a great choice for diabetics.

    Xylitol is an excellent alternative to sugar particularly for those interested in weight loss, diabetes, tooth care and general health.

    Quite the opposite of sugar, Xylitol reduces our risk of tooth decay. Instead of feeding the bad bacteria in our mouths it starves them by reducing our mouths acidity. Xylitol helps prevent dental cavities, plaque build-up and gum disease. Many tooth pastes are now available containing Xylitol. 

    Excessive consumption of Xylitol can have a laxative effect for some people, so make sure to take it in small amounts first. One study we found suggests that for a typical 60kg female up to 142 grams of Xylitol is fine with no side effects of the laxative kind (reference).

    Xylitol can be harmful to dogs so please don’t feed it to your four legged friends. Here is an FAQ on this subject from a New Zealand vet.
