What are the ingredients? Is this birch xylitol?

Their xylitol is derived from corn fibers, you can check out the FAQ section at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xylitol and the ever popular wikipedia entry for more general info- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xylitol

I don't see xylitol listed on the label and haven't detected any sweeteners in this product. Other ingredients are purified water, citric acid, potassium sorbate, sodium benzoate, and sodium chloride. Thanks for asking because I hadn't noticed the preservatives before. I've been using this product for years.

Xylitol, calcium lactate, magnesium stearate, gum Arabic, natural peppermint oil, & beeswax (glazing agent)

No. Both are healthy sweetener alternatives from different plant sources. Xylitol should come from a birch source rather than corn, because of the GMO issue often associated with the latter.

It is xylitol. It's good, I've made bread with it and it's turned out great!

The only help I can offer is the listed ingredients in them: Ingredients: Xylitol, vegetable gum, cellulose gum, mild natural peppermint, stearate of calcium/magnesium, and nothing else.

The package I have does contain Xylitol. The package does not say "new and improved".

According to Wikipedia: "Xylitol is naturally found in low concentrations in the fibers of many fruits and vegetables, and can be extracted from various berries, oats, and mushrooms, as well as fibrous material such as corn husks and sugar cane bagasse,[7][8] and birch.[9] However, industrial production starts from xylan (a hemicellulose) extracted from hardwoods[10] or corncobs, which is hydrolyzed into xylose and catalytically hydrogenated into xylitol."

per the bottle "Ingredients: water, propylene glycol, natural and artificial flavors, xanthan gum, natural color". The xanthan gum is a thickener (this is not thin like vanilla extract). It is also gluten-free

No, here is the complete ingredient list - xylitol, gum base, natural flavour, gum Arabic, white tea extract, carnauba wax, tocopherols,. This was taken from the spearmint flavour which I assume would be similar to peppermint.

Sorry I don't remember Didn't keep the product because it had xylitol on top of stevia, and I don't digest it

If you read the first review for this product, you can see that the reviewer called Xlear (she reached a live Xlear customer service rep at (877) 599-5327) and was told that the xylitol in this Xlear product comes from China. If you want xylitol made in the United States, try Health Garden Kosher Birch Xylitol. More expensive, but made from birch trees in the United States instead of Chinese corn.

The container doesn't mention birch at all. Perhaps you could contact the Distributor directly at www.jarrow.com

Short Answer: No (I don't think so) Long answer: According to my box the ingredients are: xylitol, purified water, calcite, glycerin, poloxamer, cellulose gum, Methocel, calcium propionate, lactoferrin I am sure there are no essential oils or flavors in the paste (I am sensitive to these). Methocel is the only ingredient I don't recognize. It's made by Dow. According to Dow's website Methocel is "cellulose ethers [that] are water-soluble methylcellulose and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose polymers. They're derived from pine pulp, the most abundant polymer in nature, and used as thickeners, binders, film-formers and for water-retention. They also function as suspension aids, protective colloids and emulsifiers." Lactoferrin is from milk, so tooth builder is *not* vegan.
