No, erythritol. If you look at the side view on the amazon website, you can see the full description.

It is made from Erythritol and Luo Han Guo(a fruit) extract. Tastes just like sugar! You can google it on the Saraya Health site. Hope this helps.

If you count erythritol (a sugar alcohol) as a carb it's 5 g per teaspoon. But as erythritol has a glycemic index of zero, it should count as zero carbs.

I haven't tried Swerve yet, but I prefer erythritol to Splenda, because it's a subtler sweetness with no artificial aftertaste. I've made cheesecake, sweetened condensed milk, chocolate chip cookies and magic cookie bars using erythritol and no one has been able to guess that they were not made with sugar.

Although I see a difference in my energy level when I take the Rhodiola from "Now" but I have not used the Siberian brand. I know that Siberian Rhodiola is freeze dried with no additives. Dr. Oz recommends it. I tend to think it is better. Next time I will order Siberian brand since I will better be able to comment.

This is non-gmo erythritol, not palm sugar. Erythritol is typically sourced from corn or wheat starch, in this case, and most importantly, non-gmo. Erythritol is considered by health and fitness experts to be a safe, low glycemic substitute for sugar. Like sugar, they say, it should be used sparingly in the diet. This may be more information than you want to have, but here is a link to an article telling how it is manufactured... http://www.decodedscience.com/erythritol-made-manufacture-low-calorie-sugar-substitute/42248.

I have not tried erythritol only xyltlitol. However, I don't expect any sugar alternative to have the same properties as sugar. You might want to ask in Google whether erythritol is good for baking cookies and see what responses you get.

It's better. Has both berry and other necessary parts of plant. Maltitol? Why would a sweetener be added

I am sorry, but I do not know. I bought this product about 6-8 months ago and I finished it. I do not have the bottle to anymore to answer your question. But I can say it is a great product and tastes wonderfully. It has all natural fruit ingredients. I absolutely loved it.

The nutritional lable says 4 grams of carbohydrates, but that does not translate to 16 calories. See Wikipedia entry at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erythritol

Dear D. Honestly, I don't know. I know that Erythritol is described as sugar alcohol, but in reading more about it, it isn't exactly that. It is derived from fruit. I don't know how it is processed. It isn't as sweet as sugar, but when you are someone like myself who is getting sugar out of the diet, it does provide a little bit of sweetness. I know that doesn't answer your question exactly, but I hope it helps some. I use it because it doesn't raise my blood sugar level.

It tastes the same as truvia and it's healthier! A lot of my recipies also include 1 tsp of stevia glycerite to go with 1 cup erythritol to match the sweetness of 1 cup truvia.

No, this product contains erythritol, sugar, monk fruit extract, and molasses. Monk fruit extract is only a small portion of its ingredients. Not recommended for diabetics.

No, it does not come from China, but what difference does it make? The primary ingredient is erythritol which is chemically produced from GMO corn...that fact should have as much or even more concern for consumers.

As far as I know, there is no pure monk fruit sweetener. all contain dextrose, erythritol, molasses. Whether, they are Nectresse or any other product. The same applies for any form of Stiva (like Truvia, Pure Via, Stiva in the raw. As far as I know Nectresse is going off the market. You would have to contact the people who make Splenda. They make Nectresse. We love Nectrese. The following is a personal comment: Dr. Oz is not a very good source of proper information. Most times he has no idea what he is talking about.
