Research Summary
Sorbitol is a sugar alcohol (polyol) that occurs naturally in fruits and berries but is more commonly produced commercially from glucose via hydrogenation. It is widely used as a sweetener and humectant in food and pharmaceutical products due to its ability to retain moisture and improve texture. Sorbitol is about 60% as sweet as sucrose (table sugar) but has fewer calories, making it a popular sugar substitute in sugar-free and low-calorie foods such as candies, chewing gum, baked goods, and beverages. In pharmaceuticals, sorbitol is used as an excipient in syrups, tablets, and liquid medications to improve taste and stability. Sorbitol is also utilized in personal care products like toothpaste and mouthwash for its sweetening and moisturizing properties. Additionally, sorbitol has applications in industrial processes as a component in cosmetics, surfactants, and as a raw material in the production of other chemicals.
