Lactitol and the Shellfish Free Diet
Lactitol is a sugar alcohol used as a sweetener and bulking agent. It is derived from lactose, a sugar found in milk, through a hydrogenation process. Lactitol is approximately 30-40% as sweet as sucrose (table sugar) and is often used in sugar-free and reduced-calorie products. It has a low glycemic index and is not fully absorbed by the body, making it a popular choice for people managing their sugar intake.
