 XyloSweet gave me and my two kids diarrhea! December 28, 2008
kupraje (Atlanta, GA)
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I was excited to find a natural sugar substitute when I came across Xylitol. When I got it, my kids and I made lemonade: lemon juice, water and XyloSweet. About 45 minutes later, halfway through lunch, I noticed my 6 year old daughter stopped eating her lunch, and she didn't look too good. She told me she didn't feel good and so I put her down for a nap. Ten minutes later, my son didn't feel good either. Long story short: my daughter got diarrhea, and luckily, because she hadn't had that much lemonade, her diarrhea wasnt too severe. Unfortuneately for my five year old son, who had a lot more lemonade to drink, he first started throwing up, and then also started having the runs--both at the same time! Poor kid. About the time I almost had them both settled down, my stomach was churning, and next thing you know I had to rush to the bathroom, for the first of what would end up being nine trips.
In between bathroom trips, I Googled: "Xylitol reactions" and was surprised at the number of listings that popped up. I found that supposedly about 20% of people that try xylitol will have a reaction. I think that figure is on the low side because my two kids are adopted from totally different sets of parents. So when you consider that the three of us have different genetics, and yet we all had a problem with this stuff, I'd say that probably more than 20% of people that try this, will have a reaction.

Xylitol I never even received! December 11, 2008

I ordered this product from Amazon.com and after more than 2weeks passed w/o me receiving it, I called only to find out that it was left at the front door of an old address. I had previously updated my profile with Amazon.com and had ordered something which was correctly delivered. Amazon.com tried to tell me that one cannot update an address but can only "add" an address. After ordering hundreds of dollars worth of books over the last 18mths from them, this was the lame excuse I was left with. I was told the shipping address defaulted to my old address. I could not understand why it did not default to the updated address or to the last address I had used. For the sake of principle, I will follow this up with the appropriate consumer protection agencies. JF, CA.Xlear - Xylosweet 5lb, 5 lb, 1 bag
 Great for Candida Problems November 13, 2008
D. M. Wilburn (Houlton, Maine)
The FDA has not studied xylitol. However I have a lot of problems with oral thrush, fungal based ear infections, stomach distress, etc. This product not only replaces sugar for me, but it cleared up a lot of my symptoms. There are some european studies that show that xylitol does kill Candida albicans in the mouth but they have a lot more research to do. I'm not sure if it will work for everyone, but for me it's been a blessing. Like someone meantioned though, pets cannot have it, it causes severe and rapid hypoglycemia in them. Also, don't binge on it unless you want to spend the day in the bathroom. I recommend this product to anyone who wants lower blood sugar, to avoid white sugar, with candida issues, and to have squeaky clean teeth.
All natural... October 24, 2008
Rita Noel (Mountains of North Georgia)
Great product creating both a feeling of having made a good choice and a satisfied sweet tooth at the same time. It is not quite as sweet per oz. as Splenda, but then I have just barely tried the product and have not given it much of a chance. I do believe it is a better alternative than what is currently being touted to the general public.

Healthy sugar alternative September 23, 2008
Janice M. Manuel
Xlear XyloSweet Xylitol Sweetener is a healthy alternative to sugar and better for you than most other sweeteners on the market. It is similar to sugar in texture and consistency, but tastes sweeter than sugar. It is safe for diabetics because it does not raise blood sugar levels and it has almost half the calories of sugar. Unlike so many sugar alternatives, it does not leave an "after-taste"; it actually tastes good! But...ease into it - it can have a laxative effect if you use too much too soon! :0
