Safe for people with diabetes
Single dose and 14-day clinical studies demonstrate erythritol does not affect blood serum glucose or insulin levels. Clinical studies conducted in people with diabetes conclude that erythritol may be safely used to replace sucrose in foods formulated specifically for people with diabetes. Of course, those with diabetes should consider the impact on their diet of other ingredients used in foods sweetened with erythritol.

Low in calories
Erythritol has a very low caloric content; it's value is 0.2 calories per gram for food labeling purposes in the United States and 0 (zero) calories per gram for food labeling purposes in Japan. This very low calorie value is due to erythritol's unique absorption and elimination process, which does not require the metabolism of erythritol. Thus erythritol is uniquely qualified as a very low calorie bulk sweetener for formulating "light" and "reduced calorie" products which require a 25% or more calorie reduction from the standard formulation.
