Diabetic sweeteners such as xylose aid in the maintenance of a low glycaemic index and cholesterol levels, as well as the prevention of heart disease. While white sugar can raise insulin levels in the body, xylitol, a xylose derivative, has gained popularity as a crystalline aldose sugar that does not have the same effect and is widely used as a tea and coffee sweetener.
