what is the source material? My sister-in-law can only have xylitol derived from birch.

good sweetener if you want to sweeten your wine or any homemade product that needs to be sweetened

Sorry, but I have absolutely no idea. Heard about generic product from John Gabriel; author of "The Gabriel Method. He has several websites. Good luck.

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

Usually, if it doesn't say birch it isn't. It's made from corn and probably comes from China. Birch is more expensive but worth it to me.

I have the same question, why is this only available in VERY VANILLA.. I only buy the very vanilla type because I have no other choice, but this is too sweet for me, too! Soy is healthy, but the sugar content in it? That makes me nervous.. I hope that the SILK company will start making the original -- or even the no sugar-added soymilk in tetrapacks, like this!

Xanthan Gum is grown on corn syrup. I can't necessarily speak to this company's process, but more than 90% of all domestic production is corn based.

Package lists "Sorbitol, Maltodextrin, Natural Flavors (Proprietary Blend of Natural Sialogogues and Flavors), Natural Xylitol, Magnesium Stearate (from plant sources), Zinc Gluconate, Rebiana (from Stevia)". That is it.

You CAN get xylitol that's been ground into a confectioners' sugar consistency, but it's not available on Amazon, as far as I can tell. It is available at xylitolusa.com in a 5-lb bag for $30. It's listed under their products and is called 'truly powdered xylitol.' The description states it has been ground down to be identical to powdered sugar.

They do sell 99% theobromine on amazon, so using that might be a better option. Rennou also include other minerals (most likely some form of calcium and phosphate molecules, at the very least) for the remineralization though. I would love to experiment with them and xylitol together.

According to their website: Corn fibers are our preferred source for xylitol, because it is much more sustainable and environmentally friendly. Xylitol is extracted from the stalks or other byproducts of the plants, and comes from corn grown naturally by non-industrial, family farmers. These products, which are non-GMO, are a renewable resource, which would be otherwise wasted at the end of a harvest season. Are extraction process uses no corn grains, and ensures that no allergens from corn occur in the final products. Using corn fibers that take 5 months to grow is a much more sustainable and replenishable source for xylitol than using trees that require 20 years or more to grow According to their website: Corn fibers are our preferred source for xylitol, because it is much more sustainable and environmentally friendly.

The label says "non-gm Canadian toasted soy, non-gm soy oil, granulated cane sugar, monoglyceride (from palm oil), sea salt'. I searched for a long time to find something I can eat that actually tastes good. I hope she can eat this.

I don't know if I have the 'new and improved' lot but The Biotene oral balance Gel I purchased from Amazon still contains xylitol.

Now Foods Dextrose in the in the brown bag is labeled as "Always Non-GMO". So I believe this one here is GMO. And why would they sell something that is Non-GMO and not write it on the label of this ugly designed jar ;)

Nicole said it all, the only thing I might add is check out xanthan gum which is derived from corm, used as a thickener.

I like the fact that this is low sugar. But as it is not organic, the corn syrup and soya lecithin it contains are no doubt derived from GMO sources. I'll pass.

I searched a lot of places for a good and simple recipe, and tried a few, I can't really suggest the best place since a lot of it is subjective. After many trials I ended up coming up with my own 1 part baking soda, 1.5 parts cornstarch and 2 parts cocoa butter.

It's naturally occurring sugar alcohol. Do an internet search to read more about it.

Nikki-I threw the container away, but I assume it is-it's basically just marshmallow. I would call Oakleaf and ask though-they were very helpful when I called with a question.

Unknown, but based on the question, I have queried Melitta specifically asking whether epichlorohydrin or its associated components are used in any Melitta products. Will post their response.

I found this answer on Wiklipedia: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.You can read it here: http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/XylitolHope that helps :)
