Overview of the global xylitol market
Xylitol is widely used as a substitute for sugar. The application of xylitol sugar substitute will continue to increase because it accounts for fewer calories in comparison to conventional sugar. This has encouraged the approval for the use of xylitol in food products. Our research analysis on the global xylitol market has identified the increasing application of xylitol in food products as one of the major factors that will have a positive impact on the market’s growth in the coming years. Xylitol aids in weight loss and detoxification. As a result, it is consumed by people in various forms in more than 50 countries. The consumption of xylitol is high because it acts as a dietary fiber, which helps in maintaining the gastrointestinal system. Xylitol is used in various products such as xylitol mints, baked food products, cough syrup, chewable vitamins, mouthwash, and toothpaste due to its health-related benefits. Technavio’s market research analysts predict that by volume, this market will grow at a CAGR of close to 7% by 2021.
The rate of obesity and body mass index (BMI) is increasing across the globe due to the rising habits of unhealthy eating and change in lifestyle.
