Isomaltulose debut for Gadot

Isomaltulose contains the same number of calories as sucrose, but is digested more slowly, avoiding the same peaks in blood sugar, said Ronny Hacham, vice president business development and marketing at Gadot. "This makes NRGylose an essential sweetener for diabetics and pre-diabetics. It also has great benefit in sports nutrition. A marathon runner can maintain a constant blood-sugar level more easily with isomaltulose."

As isomaltulose was not readily fermented by bacteria in the mouth, it was also a tooth-friendly option, he said.
